There are some conversations that feel a little too loaded, even a little too taboo, to discuss with neighbors, co-workers, friends, or family (sometimes that last one especially). Today we kick off a series called Can We Talk, a discussion designed to help us reclaim the conversation around culture, God, and tech. You won't find hot takes, click bait, or knee-jerk reactions from our Twitter feed (we still call it Twitter, after all). What you will find is two guys named Nathan who love Jesus deeply, who want others to trust and follow him, and who are hungry to help real conversations get started in real lives and relationships around culture, God, and tech.
Join us as we walk this path ourselves. We hope you are encouraged and equipped to begin these conversations where God has planted you, and as you seek to follow God in reaching all the people he loves so much.

Using Strengths (And Weaknesses) for the Lord 21:30

29 giorni fa21:30

21:30

Tech is amazing at helping us leverage our strengths for productive purposes. Organized people become more organized, social people become more social, and the doers of life get more done. Yet that same tech that allows us to truly shine in areas God has gifted us can be equally distracting, and even destructive, when our weaknesses show up. We can make more mistakes, faster than ever before. We can also put our trust in our amazing, God-given abilities and be tempted to believe that we can do good works on our strength. Those never end well. So today we'll talk about how we use the best tech well in the areas of our strengths, as well as our weaknesses, and remember together that our goal isn't to be productive, or even impressive, but to use all the tech that makes much of Jesus.

Today we’ll talk about the top five priorities we have as parents, and discuss how each is an opportunity to raise our children up in the way they should go. Show Notes: https://bit.ly/3F4sVQH…

Gaming can be a wonderful experience, but it can also be a good thing that distracts from the best things. Today's conversation is to equip wives to have the important, and sometimes difficult, conversation with their spouse about why we game, if it's a good fit, and how we can game on purpose not for purpose.

Tech is the New Cul de Sac. Right? 23:23

23:23

Making friends in an internet age can be tough. Everyone is online (90+% of teens), and more than half of teens say they are online “almost constantly”. So how do we help our children make good friends? We start by teaching them what it means to be a friend: someone who is of equal value, a priority to you, and real world. Then we look at which tech best supports developing these friends, and which tech simply gives us an area of common interest and convenience, but which also makes us expendable rather than exceptional.

Our children ask us for new tech all the time, and as loving parents we long to give them good gifts. Yet our children aren't all the same, some can handle more digital responsibility than others, so how do we know when the timing is right for new tech?

In the digital world there are a lot of new ways to do old things: Young people hangout online, play sports via the internet, and get famous for their ideas and influence. So how do we know if this is just the latest phase in life and culture, like the printing press or the bicycle, or if there is something unhealthy in our child's life that needs intervention?This is the beauty of a RESET. We simply look at our child's tech use and ask: "Does this tech impede my child's Relationships & Responsibilities? Emotions? Sleep? Enjoyment? Time?" Show Notes: https://bit.ly/40mwAQN…
