Furthering the Conversation on Discipling in a Digital Age

In light of our recent Educators Conference theme — “Discipling Our Students in This Digital Age” — we’re excited to share a timely and thought-provoking podcast episode recommended by Dr. Keith Plummer, Dean of the School of Divinity at Cairn University and keynote speaker at our NJ event.

In this episode of Cairn Commons, Dr. Plummer interviews Clare Morell, a fellow at the Ethics and Public Policy Center and author of The Tech Exit: A Practical Guide to Freeing Kids and Teens from Smartphones. Their conversation explores not just the dangers of a phone-based life, but also the impact of screens in the classroom — a concern many of you voiced during our conference.

Clare’s insights are deeply relevant to Christian educators, parents, and ministry leaders who are navigating how to disciple students in a world increasingly shaped by technology. The episode expands beautifully on the themes of our recent gathering, offering practical next steps and rich reflection.
