Description
Parental controls for media and technology are helpful for children, but at some point, every teen must move from parental controls to self-control.
Today’s students are growing up in a world where smartphones, social media, gaming, and AI are more than convenient tools. They are cultural forces shaping identity, attention, relationships, and behavior. Without heart-level transformation, many remain trapped in the pressure, comparison, and distraction of an always-online world.
This 8-week study equips students to think critically about media and technology while developing the Christ-centered character needed to engage with it wisely. Through engaging reflections, relevant media analysis, Scripture study, and practical application, students will learn to resist the pull of the attention economy and pursue virtues like self-control, humility, honesty, kindness, and more.
Rather than allowing media to shape who they become, students will be challenged to let Christlike character shape how they engage with the digital world.
Because the goal is not merely to survive (or even thrive) in the online world. The goal is to live out God’s purposes with integrity and freedom in Christ, while still enjoying the common grace of media and technology.
