How can students in technology industries reflect the brilliance of God’s kingdom in such a mechanical and competitive context? In our seminar, we’ll discuss how we should consider the implications of our technologies and how they challenge our worldview, sharing some experiences of Christian technology students from Brazil connected to IFES. And we will challenge one another to reflect and work for technologies that point to God’s shalom.
