Is your phone killing your faith? Modern technology has eroded an ancient mental skill that was essential to the Early Church: deep memory and oral tradition. We’re exploring how digital distraction and smartphone addiction are rewiring our brains, making deep Bible study and meditation nearly impossible. If you struggle with focus during prayer or find yourself scrolling instead of reading the Bible, this message is for you. Learn how to reclaim your mind, defeat digital dementia, and restore a biblical focus that goes beyond the screen.
Early Christians, Jewish Christians, understood how to focus on the scriptures. That’s how they could memorize so much of it and why believers knew when the Apostles were connecting their writings to Old Testament scripture. This video will help you regain the focus of the Word that has somehow seemed to vanish in the last few years.
