From the Garden to the City:
The Redeeming and Corrupting Power of Technology
By John Dyer (Kregel)
A 2012 Outreach Resource of the Year

“This is a creative, unpredictable, and surprisingly moving introduction to thinking as Christians about technology—a realm of culture that shapes both church and society in profound ways, yet is almost always simply taken for granted in our churches. With John Dyer’s help, you will never see either a shovel or a smartphone the same way again—and this book guides us toward making wise choices about technology in our churches, our families and our ministries. It is the ideal ‘first book’ on a topic that deserves much more Christian reflection and attention.” —Andy Crouch, from the March/April 2012 issue of Outreach magazine
