Summary

What does God think about human technology, what do you think about it, and how does it affect your life? From smartphones to self-driving cars to space travel, new technologies can inspire. But the breakneck pace of change can also frighten. So how do Christians walk by faith while using innovations that are constantly coming our way? 

To build a biblical theology of technology, journalist and tech optimist Tony Reinke examines nine key texts from Scripture to show how new discoveries are divinely orchestrated. Ultimately, he states, what we believe about God determines how we respond to human invention. With the help of several theologians and inventors throughout history, Reinke dispels twelve common myths in the church and offers fourteen ethical convictions to help us live by faith in the age of big tech.
