Listen to this message

In a world designed to keep us scrolling, how do we protect our families and stay truly present? In this message from The Connected Life series, Pastor Jacob unpacks the biblical picture of the gatekeeper from the book of Nehemiah, showing how parents, grandparents, and every believer are called to guard what enters their homes in a digital age. Learn three practical moves for stewarding technology well: know your gates, lock it down, and guard yourself. This honest, hope-filled teaching addresses social media, screen time, parental controls, accountability, and raising kids in Christ-centered community without fear or shame. Discover the freedom found in Christ and a challenge to simply be present.
