I would say God loves technology. You know, He gave Noah a detailed blueprint of a boat, and gave him the plans to build it. You know, like, if that's not technology, I don't know what is. And so I think, God has a heart for tech and I think He inspires technology. You know, a lot of times, it's easy to get fearful of new technology. And you see that a lot now, especially with artificial intelligence, you know...let's look at all the possible negative things that could come from this technology and I don't dispute that. But I would also say that like, you know, how do you think about technology redemptively? And so I, you know, believe there's a massive opportunity for redemptive technology, technology that is sacrificial, that we are using the gifts and skills that God has given us to redeem the broken world around us.
