THE MEDIA MIND: Reclaiming the Human Soul in the Digital Dark Age
As the digital dark age descends upon our 21st century society... What can be done to preserve social life, family unity, thinking abilities, church and spiritual life, mental health, attention span, child development, joy in Christ, interest in the Bible, and individuality?
Episode 1: How to Be Human Again
Have we all gone mad? These stats, trends, and even physiological effects of non-stop media have reached such absurd levels that they would be hilarious if they weren’t so deadly – and they now have even the biggest promoters of media use running for the exits.
Episode 2: The Disconnected Childhood
40 years ago, scholars warned of the coming ‘disappearance of childhood’ – a disconnectedness from parents, nature, and play. But what is God’s inspiring design for a happy childhood? And how has Big Tech scandalously immersed our children in endless media… while shielding their own children from its damaging effects?
Episode 3: Antisocial Media
For millions of souls, the cyber ‘space’ of social media and video gaming has displaced the joy of God’s amazing reality. But now the emotional and social consequences of digital immersion are absolutely rocking the mental health profession. Is there any way out of the trap?
Episode 4: Digital Pharmakeia
The verdict is in on the addictive nature of entertainment and social media. See how ‘big tech’ orchestrated the most nefarious plot since the cigarette-smoking craze of the 20th century. And be inspired by a God who knows how to maximize our joy.
Episode 5: People of the Book in the Age of the App
A distracting tidal wave of ‘digital everything’ has re-wired our brains and produced a dramatic loss of literacy and intelligence. Learn how real books can lower stress, improve intelligence, and preserve a literate brain in the digital dark age.
