Please watch the 2-minute video and ponder these questions:
- Compared to the prevalence of smoking decades ago, are smartphones the “smoking of our time?”
- Are smartphones the religion of the 21st century, the “god of the age”?
- Are smartphones and technology devices enhancing social relationships while destroying personal ones?
Some have responded to this invasion by implementing a “Tech Sabbath” within their lives to take a “day of rest” from cellphones and/or technology. Consider the following ways to unplug and recharge your life and not just your technology devices:
