    Jesus and Our Tech-Filled Lives with Andy Crouch | Wake-Up Call Conversations

    The episode explores the paradox of modern technology: the tools promised to make life easier are often leaving people more isolated, anxious, and spiritually drained. Through a conversation about AI, social media, and the pursuit of “easy everywhere,” the speakers examine how convenience can quietly reshape identity, community, and even what it means to be human. They contrast the cultural dream of technological progress with a faith-centered vision rooted in incarnation, relationship, and wisdom, arguing that the story of Jesus offers a better way forward than either utopia or dystopia.
