The last question to our panel (context) which is the title of this blog post was open-ended in nature. I took it as an opportunity to share two major concerns I have for technology in discipleship. The first one relates to parenting and the use of technology. The second one concerns church data and the use of technology.
I was a family pastor for many years and have always been interested in parenting through different seasons of technology development. Our kids graduated from high school in 2008 and 2010, so their first phones were flip phones. They used them a lot to text their friends, so we had to put boundaries on their access to their phones at night. They were also not allowed to look at them at school.
