Searching for Sabbath in a World of Screens: Andy and Amy Crouch

We live in a world surrounded by technologies that promise to make us more productive, more connected, and more satisfied. Unfortunately, more and more data shows us that these promises, though fantastic, often ring hollow.

Our guests Amy Crouch and her father Andy Crouch invite us to think a little less about smart technology and a little more about the wisdom that helps us be more fully human.

In My Tech Wise Life, the Crouches engage in reflection and dialogue about the proper roles tech can play in a healthy life and in relationships. They also offer practical steps and timeless wisdom to help redirect our lives toward true abundance.

The key, it turns out, arises in part through the ancient practice of Sabbath—learning to disconnect from distraction to more fully connect with those things which matter most.

Amy Crouch is a student at Cornell University studying linguistics, English, and anything else she can fit into her schedule. She loves to cook, climb mountains, and chat about books.

Andy Crouch--author, speaker, musician, and dad--has shaped the way our generation sees culture, creativity, and the gospel. In addition to his books The Tech-Wise Family, Culture Making, Playing God, and Strong and Weak, his work has been featured in Time, the Wall Street Journal, the New York Times, and Lecrae's 2014 single "Non-Fiction." He was executive editor of Christianity Today from 2012 to 2016 and is now a full-time partner in theology and culture with Praxis. He lives with his family in Pennsylvania.
