9. How to Find Peace in a Digital World | John Ortberg

Doesn’t it seem like everything is hyperconnected, screen-centric today? In a matrixed existence how are we meant to find pockets of peace in the day? It can feel almost impossible to grasp. The peace has a hard time flourishing in an online environment that usually amplifies outrage, judgment, and anxiety. Leading voices today have noted that social media gives us the power to express contempt with increasing ease. It’s not pretty out there. And too often, Christians have joined the chorus of division and often led it. But Scripture reminds us: peace is not found in being right, it is a fruit of the Spirit. It grows not from surrender. Peace is not about willpower; it’s something we experience as we let go of judgment, hurry, and the illusion of control.
