Read Nehemiah 4:14. What aspects of modern technology are scaring you today? How can you surrender that fear to the Lord so that you can use technology in a way that honors Him?
Talk about practical ways you will assess and strengthen the gates to your devices. What impact might this have on you and your family one year from today?
What barriers do you currently have to guard your life from the dangers of technology? Is there a certain area where you’d like more technological limits? How will you implement that barrier this week?
