| 0:00.0 | Hello, everyone, and welcome to the Graceology with Gwen Smith podcast. I'm Gwen Smith, and I'm really glad you've joined me today. |
| 0:18.2 | Around here, we have fun, faith-focused, grace-filled conversations, |
| 0:22.9 | all to help you know and trust God more. Our discussions are honest, often humorous, and |
| 0:29.2 | always practical, and they're going to encourage you in meaningful ways to live out and lean |

| 1:26.0 | more Christians are turning to their screens |
| 1:28.2 | to cope with stress than ever before. Though Jesus invites us to come to him, more often than |
| 1:35.4 | not people are running to Facebook, Instagram, online games, podcasts, and YouTube videos to get through |
| 1:41.6 | the day. While we want to want God most, the reality is that we |
| 1:47.1 | often turn to our phones more. Imagine what would happen if we lifted our eyes from our |
