About This Series:

Our modern existence is characterized by perpetual influence—technological devices, social platforms, digital interruptions, and cultural pressures surround us continuously. Over the next four weeks, we'll discover pathways to live as deeply rooted, fully present disciples of Jesus amid this hyperconnected landscape. Every gathering offers scripture-based wisdom and tangible strategies to escape digital saturation and restore Christ to the center of our lives.

Weekly Sermon Topics

Technology surrounds us—from smartphones to smartwatches, AI to robotics. The word “technology” derives from Greek: “tekton” (craftsman) and “logos” (word). Our ability to innovate reflects being created in the image of a creative God.

Yet technology has a shadow side. It’s made us information-obsessed, perpetually connected, and increasingly self-focused. MIT’s Sherry Turkle notes that technology promises to fulfill three core human desires: gaining attention, being heard, and never experiencing loneliness.

Instead of letting technology consume our every moment, what if we embraced stillness? Technology cannot fill our inner void—only God can. How might our lives transform if we practiced Psalm 46:10: “Be still and know that I am God”?

This 30-day digital detox journey is designed to help you break unhealthy tech habits, reduce digital noise, and create space for spiritual growth and meaningful relationships.
