We are living in the second decade of the digital revolution, a revolution that is proving even more momentous and world-changing than the Industrial Revolution. The personal computer and the Internet have transformed the way we and our children study, play, socialize, shop, learn, and even apply for jobs. If you are a parent, teacher, or pastor, you probably feel overwhelmed by the size and speed of the changes. There are many wonderful new opportunities, but also many dangers.
The newly released film, God’s Technology, presents a Christian response to the digital revolution, and does so in four parts.
Part 1: Four Biblical PrinciplesPart 2: Three Possible Responses
Part 3: Seven Step Training Program
Part 4: The Seven Steps Applied to Facebook. The seven step training program lays out seven practical steps to train our children how to use the Internet in a disciplined and discerning way. God’s Technology is ideal for families, schools, and churches that want to help their children to use God’s good gift of technology in a God-glorifying way. And although it gives parents and teachers many helpful tools, it emphasizes that the Gospel of Jesus Christ is the ultimate firewall for our children. You can download the 40 minute film in high definition ($5.99) or standard definition ($4.99). The DVD should be ready soon and can be pre-ordered for $9.99.
