How to Beat Digital Distraction and Live Purposefully | Keith & Patrick

from Ten Minute Bible Talks Devotional Bible Study · host Ten Minute Bible Talks

"Phillip Morris just wanted your lungs. The app store wants your soul." -Bill Maher Technology helps us go faster and get more done. But could speed and convenience cost us a meaningful life? Does going faster matter when we don't know what we're moving towards? Technology isn't the problem. Distraction is. But the constant stream of notifications, likes, emails, and text messages are precisely what distracts us from spending time on what we actually value. In this episode, https://www.thecrossingchurch.com/staff/keith-simon/ (Keith) and https://www.thecrossingchurch.com/staff/patrick-miller/ (Patrick) share how they're fighting against digital distraction in order to live purposefully.
