Technology and the Church
3/31
The technology or websites involved change, but the messages the Lord provides about technology are always pertinent.
We need to keep the bigger picture in mind when we are programming or using a computer, not just focus on one aspect we enjoy.
We can share so many good things on social media, it is inconceivable that we would instead waste so much time instead; we must learn how to best use our time.
4/2
The Lord will help protect His church and its various digital services, but we must do our part to create systems that don't rely on miracles to work or stay stable.
Privacy and ownership of data is something the church takes very seriously, and we should emulate this dedication as well.
The Lord and His servants want us to have as much access as possible to the Gospel, and the internet is a primary tool to provide that access. We must remember the purpose of the digital age and not just live in it.
4/7
The tools we have online were inspired by the Lord to serve His purposes, not just entertain us.
We have an obligation to help with the redemption of the dead. This is done not just in the Temples, but online as well.
We should never underestimate the human element when we automate systems pertaining to the salvation of man.
4/9
Just because we have high fidelity in our digital world, that world is not the real one and we must remember that distinction.
How we represent ourselves online should be true to who we are in life.
It is important that we spend time away from the computer to work on our own lives and not just our digital presence.
