Faith and Tech Bytes with Amy Lynn

Being a people pleaser can really weigh on a person. Being forced to be the person who always has to apologize even when you aren't wrong is a sign you are in a unhealthy relationship. If the other party can't humble themselves and apologize for possibly hurting you, it's a toxic relationship. Respect should flow both ways.

I bet you are curious how this applies to tech. Simple, did you know you can have your electronic device custom made? You don't have to accept the templates you see for sale on the show room floors.

Galatians 1:10 “Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ.”

You may have noticed after sharing some good news you feel as though you got slapped back down into place. Online it seems the more attention you bring to yourself the greater the target you are for mockery, hacking attempts, slander, spam, and more. You are stronger than you think and so is your electronic devices.

Deuteronomy 20:4 "For the LORD your God is the one who goes with you to fight for you against your enemies to give you victory.”

Have you ever noticed how older people will always make comments like "Oh that's back in style now?"  This trend of everything is old is new again flows through life not just in style of clothing but also in faith. Example some things that were considered cults or cult like in the 60's or 70's is now considered mainstream. Things considered radical are normal.

Technology is the same way.  Often times you may do updates or upgrades on your computer and regret it. I been there done that tons of times. But thankfully there is a website out there called Old Version. Because newer isn't always better.

2 Timothy 3:16 "All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness"

Everything is going to let you down in some way shape or form. This not a curse, it's the likelihood of life. No human is perfect. Each of us have our own responsibilities in life and our own burdens.

Computers too can let us down. Phones can get damaged as well as lost and if you didn't backup data then again your system or devices have let you down. If you have important content on your phone or computers you need to back it up, save it somewhere safe so it's there when you need it. Print things out before they get lost or damaged. Uploading everything to the cloud also isn't secure.  Even online storage like Google Drive or Dropbox aren't 100% safe. There is no format online or off that offers 100% secure backups.

Psalms 118:8: "It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man"

Episode 12 is a combination of all the shows. I wanted to do something special since the number 12 is so important in the Bible. While I realize that the podcast isn't fully centered around either faith or tech it is a combination of both. 

Jesus's apostles: Jesus chose 12 apostles, each representing one of Israel's 12 tribes.

The book of Revelations: The number 12 is referenced in many ways, including 12 gates and 12 angels.

Jesus's disciples: The 12 disciples of Jesus symbolize the perfection and completeness of his teachings. 

The number 1212 can be seen as a reflection of this biblical meaning, representing completion, perfection, and divine authority

Buddhists believe that life is composed of 12 stages.

Beyond faith:
12 months in a year. 12 hours of day and night. 12 dozen eggs. 12 ribs on the average human. 12 signs of the zodiac. 12 function keys on a computer. 12 grades of school. 12 face cards in a deck of cards. Alcoholics Anonymous has 12 steps, 12 traditions, and 12 concepts for world service. Jury of 12.
