We all know technology forms us -- but how? How does technology intersect with our spiritual lives? It's tempting to just toss tech out the window, but how do we think more Christianly about the tech we use?

We end the episode with a few small, practical ways to get started thinking about formation, worship, and technology's affect on our affections.
