This week we’re going to be talking about how to be faithful disciples in our digital society. A few days ago I finished reading the book, Faith for Exiles: 5 Ways for a New Generation to Follow Jesus in Digital Babylon by David Kinnaman and Mark Matlock. The focus of the book was about raising young people in our current culture to be faithful as they grow up, but the principles in it will apply to all of us. So we’re going to talk about some of the lessons from this book today.
