Technology and Spiritual Development
Technology has fostered significant spiritual growth in my life. Millions of individuals
have developed spiritually due to technology (Safta, 2018). There are multiple ways in which
technology has helped me achieve several milestones in my spiritual growth. I have a tablet
which contains some note taking apps. These help me to take notes whenever I attend a church
sermon. This way, I can refer to the notes later. Referring to these sermons has helped me grow
spiritually. Apps from my electronic devices also helps to manage my tasks through reminders. I
am able to plan my day and have adequate time for bible study and listening to gospel worship
songs. In addition, these apps help me to set goals and achieve them. This has contributed to self-
improvement when it comes to time management. In a nutshell, these applications have enabled
me to create more time for my spiritual nourishment.
In the contemporary society there are Christian based blogs. There are also online videos
on platforms such as YouTube that are Christian based. I often read such blogs and watch the
videos. This has contributed to my spiritual growth. This is because I can easily browse on my
Smartphone at any time and at any place. There are numerous Christian blogs on the internet that
are helpful for any believer (Campbell, 2017). Examples of such blogs are Pastor Mark Driscoll
blog, Bible gateway blog, Women of faith, Christian today, among others. Some of these blogs
contain an online segment where you communicate to men and women of God on a live
platform. Here, you can ask questions or share personal problems which are well addressed
through the bible and prayer. Online video sermons by men of God such as Paul Washer, Max
Lucado, and Timothy Keller among others are effective platforms for spiritual nourishment.
