In the fifth segment of our six week series, we learn how Jesus shapes our view and use of technology. Technology, or any human activity that uses tools to transform God's creation for a practical purpose, is an extension of God's command to develop the resources of the natural world. After the fall, man's desire to create and advance continued, but in sin we no longer also desire God's glory. Technology becomes our idol and enables a constant distraction without the power of the gospel to set us free. In Christ we see that any claim to power, pleasure, or promise technology may give is a lie, and move it back to it's proper place in our lives.
