Disconnected: Why Technology Keeps Disappointing Us
In this episode you’ll hear Andy Crouch’s 2022 lecture,
Disconnected: Why technology keeps disappointing us
Technology promises so much — and truly has transformed our lives — but somehow it never quite delivers.
Drawing on an older vision of human beings as heart-soul-mind-strength complexes, designed for love, Andy Crouch makes the case for applying our scientific knowledge in a way that restores things that are in strangely short supply in our technological age: real connection, relationship, and hope.
