Parents, Teens and Technology Resources

These resources are a list of things I'm gathering as material for further study beyond the points of discussion for a seminar on the topic I'll be giving at Calvary Bible Church.

Disclaimer: I don't fully endorse any of these materials. I consider them good resources to stimulate thought, discussion and understanding of the impact of technology on our culture and how to use this knowledge in becoming a Christian who can impact the culture to God's glory.
