Are we the most connected generation in history, or the loneliest? In this opening message of our new church-wide series, The Connected Life, Pastor Jacob asks a question we rarely stop to consider: What does God think about our phones? This sermon explores how we've traded the sacredness of showing up for the convenience of a screen and what it costs our families, friendships, and intimacy with God.
Discover why "your feed is full, but your soul is empty," how the first-century church shattered dividing walls by gathering face-to-face, and how we can push back against digital distraction to rediscover deep, life-giving, Christ-centered community. Whether you're a parent, grandparent, or anyone feeling stuck in the scroll, this message offers hope and a way forward. Watch, be encouraged, and join us as we learn to be truly present.
