In collaboration with Focus on the Family, we are excited to announce Lighthouse Voices returns on September 10 at 7pm Eastern. Lighthouse Voices is a livestreamed event series designed to help Christians navigate today’s cultural landscape with truth AND love.
We will be talking about Resilient Faith in a Digital World with Samuel James, author of the new book Digital Liturgies. Contrary to what we may think, technology isn’t neutral. The mindless act of scrolling on our phones and consuming digital content DOES something to us. It reshapes the way we relate to God and truth. James will highlight five ways digital habits have slowly starved our souls and will point us to the abundant life we can enjoy when we trade digital addiction for godly wisdom. This faith-shaping conversation will be followed by a Q&A and book signing. To attend via livestream or in person in Holland, Michigan, register for free today at colsoncenter.org/lighthouse.

| 0:00.0 | On the Strong Women podcast, we love to talk about habits because our habits, our daily habits |
| 0:08.1 | and rhythms are what point us and aim us in a particular direction, either towards Christ, |
| 0:15.0 | towards truth, towards the flourishing life, or away from it. No habit is neutral. |
| 0:22.6 | And because the world practices a rival habit, |
| 0:26.2 | a rival rhythm that directs us away from Christ, |
| 0:30.6 | and it's kind of those assumed habits |
