227. Dr Tom Trimble - What Is Your Smartphone Doing to Your Soul?

Dela

Smartphones, social media, algorithms, AI, and endless scrolling have reshaped the way we live, think, communicate, and even worship. But what impact are these technologies having on our souls?

In this episode of The Hacka Podcast, Greg Hackathorn sits down with Dr. Tom Trimble, pastor of Restoration Church in St. Charles, Missouri, and author of Digital Dominion.

Drawing from more than a decade of research and his doctoral work, Dr. Trimble explores the intersection of technology, sociology, and theology. Together, they discuss smartphone addiction, social media's effect on identity and relationships, the rise of anxiety in younger generations, and why Christians must develop a biblical framework for navigating the digital age.

Dr. Trimble also shares practical wisdom on parenting, ministry, creativity, and raising children who love God while engaging culture with discernment.

If you've ever wondered whether your phone is shaping your spiritual life more than you realize, this conversation is for you.
