I think the best place to start is Shane Hipps’ Flickering Pixels. Other than that, I would recommend my book coming out sometime next year :)

Good stuff. The relationship of technology, life, and faith has been a nagging questions for me over the years. Even more so since everything is now moving towards a constant online connection.

I was wondering, do you have any resource recommendations (books, articles, etc.) for the relationship/role of technology as it relates to life and faith? Thanks…

No matter what I write, I've fallen into the trap of needing to be known, seen, heard, present. The question for me, is why do I need to be MORE than present – that is to know others see my presence? Pride?

Reminds me of this great quote:

It is in our collective behavior that we are most mysterious… we spend our time sending messages to each other, talking and trying to listen at the same time, exchanging information. This seems to be our most urgent biological function; it is what we do with
our lives.
— Lewis Thomas, “Computers” (from The Lives of a Cell, 1974)

John,

Great post…looking forward to talking this over with you–in present form–sometime this week hopefully. Giving me lots to chew on here. My dad told me a story today about Thoreau, and that at Walden pond he had three chairs in his little cabin. One for himself (solitude–to be alone); two of them for friendship (someone came by–was present), and then three was for community. There is something in there I think for us…not sure yet. But thinking about the need to be alone, solitude..not always online making noise…etc, etc.
