Bøker av Ryan Collins

Today's drive-by narrative is that the tech space is an entirely humanistic endeavor built apart from God. If that's true, then is it really just a coincidence that the very essence of the space points to the second part of Hebrews 11:3, "the invisible realm gave birth to all that is seen"? Or, is there something more to the seemingly impossible advancements in technology that points to the brilliance of a Creator and unveils the first part of that verse, "God spoke the worlds into existence"?In The God of Tech, Ryan Collins answers these questions, taking you on a journey to rediscover modern technology's Divine origin. Along the way, he paints a picture of a forthcoming tipping point for the next season of technology, which has the power to divide humanity or bring us together. And as a call to action, Collins invites believers to partner with the Holy Spirit to activate the next great movement of God through the most influential space in the world.
