The Quest for Control: Impacts of Modernity on Spirituality

Digital technologies have woven a complex web that alters our perceptions and interactions. We think of ourselves differently now, and we experience life differently than 20 years ago. How does this shift, this digitization of the self, affect our understanding of what it means to be human? In this environment, spiritual formation will have to be, in some ways, counter-formation. An alternative to the digital habits and assumptions that form us, often unthinkingly, in machine-like dehumanizing ways. Renewal will require us to ask hard questions about who we've been, who we are, and who we're becoming. On this episode of Reconstructing Faith, join Trevin Wax as he asks: How does the digital age shape, inform, or deform our understanding of discipleship and spiritual growth?
