With Paige Hanna
About this episode

Welcome to another episode of Heavenly Ever After. Today is all about how much society actually relies on smart phones and how they have truly become modern day “idols”. I talk about how people in our society today have developed a huge dependency on social media and technology. There is certainly good to social media and technology but only based on how we utilize it and for what purpose. I touch on how we, as Christians, should be using social media and what to avoid to flee from sin. I discuss and break down the story of the golden calf in the Book of Exodus. I get into how we can break phone dependency and how we can be free from human “idols” as well. It is so important that we do not use our phones right when we wake up and to fall asleep. It has become an idol and we need to break free from this before it completely over takes us. I pray this word encourages you.
