Listen "Navigating Distractions As A Christian Engineer (Cybersecurity, Software, Cloud, AI, DevOps & Data)"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of The Godly Engineer, I discuss the pervasive issue of distractions, particularly social media, that pull our focus away from our work and spiritual life. My emphasis is on the importance of setting our minds on things above, as stated in Colossians 3:1-2, and exploring how distractions like social media can misalign our desires and dilute our purpose. Through biblical references and personal experiences, I advocate for a disciplined, spiritually focused life that prioritizes God's purpose over worldly distractions. This episode also offers practical advice, including the importance of solitude, drawing on Jesus' example in Luke 5:15-16, and being 'locked in' like Nehemiah. I encourage you to continuously ask yourself what you are truly seeking in your use of technology. The episode underscores the significance of aligning your work and life with Godly principles to impact the world meaningfully.00:00 Introduction: The Struggle to Focus01:57 The Age of Distraction02:12 Biblical Guidance on Focus03:30 Understanding Distraction04:46 Mindset and Holiness07:26 The Fruits of the Spirit14:28 The Battle Against Distractions17:14 Jesus as the Model for Focus19:28 Nehemiah's Determination22:56 Seeking the Right Things28:11 Conclusion & Final ThoughtsDon't forget to subscribe, like, and turn on post notifications for when I upload!Contact: [email protected]#christian #bible #biblestudy _______The Godly Engineer is where faith meets technology.As Christian engineers, whether in software, cybersecurity, data, or AI, we’re called to be the world's light (Matthew 5:14-16); our code, systems, and solutions touch the lives of millions. But it’s not just about the work we do, it’s about how we do it: with faith, devotion, and surrender.God's gifts within us (Exodus 35:31-32) aren’t just for career success but for Kingdom impact. Through the lens of engineering, we reflect Christ. Our work becomes worship when we offer it with excellence and humility, working heartily as for the Lord (Colossians 3:23-24), and doing all things for His glory (1 Corinthians 10:31).This is more than a platform. It’s a calling to live boldly as Godly engineers, grounded in Christ and led by purpose.
