Outline
I. TECHNOLOGICAL FLOURISHING?
"The digital liturgies of the web and social media train us to invest ultimate authority in our own stories and experiences as they separate us from the objective givenness of the world." - Samuel James
II. TRUE HUMAN FLOURISHING
True Human flourishing is only available through communion with God [and is] only experienced through faithful, whole person discipleship to Jesus, which situates us into God's community. - Chad Pennington
III. TECH-WISE LIVING
“We were made for presence, but so often our phones are the cause of our absence. To be two places at once, is to be no place at all.” - Justin W. Earley
