What Profit a Man to Gain the World?

from Starting Right · host DannyMac

Technology has exploded at an unprecedented rate. A scientist recently observed that technological advances since 2000 have surpassed all developments from 1900-2000 combined—more innovation in 24 years than the century that brought us cars, planes, television, and computers. Yet amid this stunning progress comes a troubling realization: our satisfaction with life hasn't kept pace with our technological capabilities.This five-minute reflection invites us to examine what we're truly chasing.
