Darcy - Technology and Faith - An Outline

Here are a few of the directions I want to venture towards in our small group:

1. The possible uses of technology to enhance our faith
a. blog spot (this experiment)
b. research on spiritual topics
c. spreading ideas or broadcasting (using Bible verses on facebook)

2. The challenges technology has brought to our generation
a. Desensitization due to amount of information and the pace that it comes at us
b. Anonymity shield that removes us from accountability from others and ourselves
c. Distractions from "be still and know that I am God"
d. Temptation for pleasures available electronically (excessive gaming or lust)

3. God's possible purposes for allowing such tools
a. Where is the human condition going with technology?
b. Does God call us to us technology to serve him?
c. What is the most spiritual reponsible use for technology and how do we implement such practices?

The schedule is flexible and the outline is a draft.... but these are some of the topics I want to broach in our discussions.

Let me know what you think!
