This week, we are discussing the recent New York Times article “The Internet’s Final Frontier: Remote Amazon Tribes.” After the internet was introduced to the Indigenous people in September, the members of the tribe had to grapple with the same ills American parents have been plagued with for fifteen years. Their story provides an object lesson for Christian parents on the importance of delaying access to the internet/smartphones/social media/games for the purpose of discipleship.
