À propos de ce contenu audio

 Gospel Tech is a resource for parents who are feeling outpaced and overwhelmed as they raise children in a tech world.

Our goal: Equip parents with the tools, resources, and confidence they need to raise kids who love God and use tech.

Gospel Tech’s mission is to equip families to love God and use tech. We want to empower parents to:
  1. Talk about healthy tech
  2. Communicate the Gospel
  3. Connect the hope of the Gospel to their everyday tech lives

Introduction to Gospel Tech
Three years ago I (Nathan) started Gospel Tech as a ministry to help connect the Gospel to the daily tech lives of families in practical ways. As a middle school teacher I saw a need for intentional, Gospel-focused conversations about tech. Tech was creating more distraction than inspiration in the classroom, and I saw the need for more than just new habits—there was a desperate need for new hearts.

Gospel Tech bridges the gap between scary tech conversations and the hope of the Gospel. With engaging stories and practical applications I bring Gospel-centered tech solutions families can apply in everyday life.

Gospel Tech Resources Beyond The Podcast
  • The Parent Tech Workshops: A two-part series addressing:
    • How should we handle Tech’s Big 3 (smartphones, gaming, pornography)?
    • How do we make tech safe at home? (two types of tech, tech health, and building tech trust)
  • Youth Talks:
    • The Tech Talk: Use the best tech on purpose, not for purpose.
    • The Hope Talk: A conversation about our goals, purpose, and how making a mistake doesn’t make us a mistake.
  • The Family Tech Framework: A two-hour workshop where families leave with the words to say and the plan in place for healthy tech at home and in daily life.
    • Part 1: Talk It Out: Parents learn key points of discussing healthful tech.
    • Part 2: Walk It Out: Families work together to create a Family Tech Framework customized to their needs, goals, and season of life.

At the end of the day our children aren't problems to fix, they're people to love. We need to point them to the purpose and hope available in Christ, in the work he's already done to make them new and to call them on to good works, and then use tech from that hope. This is why I love to say that in Christ we use tech on purpose, not for purpose.

That's the goal of Gospel Tech. Thanks for letting me be on this journey of parenting with you.

  • AI Boundaries, Phone Free Rooms, and Tech at Sporting Events

    AI Boundaries, Phone Free Rooms, and Tech at Sporting Events
    May 5 2026
    After a recent talk at a local church I was approached by someone who works for a major tech company and regularly works with AI. He stressed three points heavily:
    1. Our children need to be intentionally prepared for AI. It makes up info, it lies to cover its tracks, and even the best AI trainers don't know what they're going to get out of this resource.
    2. Our children use AI more than adults do, so they will be the first native-use employees entering the workforce with AI in hand. It's our opportunity to equip, and warn, them.
    3. Don't use AI for anything you can't vet.
    Today we'll address this as well as the problem of heat pollution, how tech companies plan to handle the incredible energy draw of AI farms on the grid, how to handle tech at sporting events, and what we should do about phones in the bedroom.

  • Of Mice & Owls, Ed Tech, and Tech Time Limits

    Of Mice & Owls, Ed Tech, and Tech Time Limits
    Apr 29 2026
    Nick Bostrom once compared our pursuit of superintelligence to mice trying to domesticate an owl. The most recent news concerning Anthropic's Mythos strikes a little too close to home. Yet not all tech news is so grim: Is Apple's Neo laptop the ed tech solution we've been waiting for? We also dive into a parent question concerning how much time is too much on tech in a day.

    Child Safety Online
    Apr 21 2026
    WARNING: The subject matter, and the content itself, can be triggering. I include this so you can be informed, but use prayerful discretion when it comes to how much you really need to know to be loving and helpful for your family, children, and community.

    Did you know it takes 17 strikes for a child predator to be banned on Meta's platforms? After five, eight, fourteen reported violations the perpetrator will still be active, and only after the seventeenth will the account be taken down. Wild. The good news is, there are a lot of ways to have fun at the pace of real life. I'm currently on a kick about seeing students get a chance for 6th grade camp again.
