"39,600. That's how many seconds per day the average American spends consuming media. That's eleven hours every day looking at smartphones, tablets, televisions, and laptops. It's pretty obvious: our screen time is excessive, technology is addictive, and we should probably stop spending half our day staring at glowing rectangles. Less obvious, however, is this: What is modern technology doing to our mental, physical, and spiritual health? What can we do to establish healthier boundaries for the technology that is all around us? How can we use technology with purpose? This book is a unique collaboration between a board-certified psychiatrist and a pastor to answer those questions. This book is for anyone seeking to develop a healthier, faith-based usage of technology-those who sense that technology is taking over their lives, diminishing their mental health, or hindering their life in Christ; those who are trying to navigate the glut of digital technology surrounding their lives. This resource could be used individually, with a small group, or as a congregation-wide study. The tone of this book is accessible and relatable while still being psychologically and theologically serious, with ample connections to Scripture and theology along with reputable medical and psychological research. Each chapter focuses on a different aspect of technology and concludes with a "Do This, Not That" section to provide actionable guidance for readers' everyday lives"--
