Computers Cartoons (“Faith in the Digital Age”)
The Internet, Computers, AI, and Social Media… all for the Glory of God.
“No temptation has overtaken you except what is common to mankind. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what
you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can endure it.” — 1 Corinthians 10:13
Computers and Faith
Computers have transformed how Christians connect with their beliefs, from the pastor’s sermon prep to a kid’s Bible app. Here’s how they fit: ACCESS TO SCRIPTURE, WORSHIP & TEACHING, ONLINE COMMUNITIES & SUPPORT
ME, MYSELF, AND AI
Real Impact
Pew Research (2024) says 60% of U.S. Christians use social media for faith content—prayer apps, live-streamed Easter, or dog-themed devotionals. It’s giving with a keyboard—spreading hope, not cash. Kids learn Bible stories via iPad; adults join global prayer chains. A church might Zoom a potluck recipe swap when mosquitoes ruin the picnic.
(1 Corinthians 9:22) to share the gospel—computers and social media are the new parchment and town square.
but the DANGERS are real
Too much screen time and darkness (porn, violence, rage) are just a click away
Computer Support, Learning, and Virus Issues
Gaming…
Confession here: I am 69 years old and am a Gamer. (almost strictly sports games, no online play)
Social Media and Faith
Social media—X, Instagram, TikTok, Pinterest, and more help make faith public, personal, and instant. SPREADING THE WORD Mt. 5:16, CHURCH OUTREACH, PERSONAL FAITH… but all this is not without its CHALLENGES
