When she was 12 years old, Ava Smithing spiralled down a social media rabbit hole that nearly cost her life. A decade later, she discovered she wasn’t alone: Big Tech had hijacked childhood and adolescence for an entire generation. In this ten-part investigative podcast, Ava crosses the continent to uncover a hidden digital world. She’ll meet teens with millions of followers, young girls wrestling with compulsive porn use, and boys blackmailed by international cybercriminals lurking in their DMs. In the first episode of Left to Their Own Devices, Ava dives into the debate over technology addiction. The condition is absent from the official list of mental health disorders used by psychiatrists, but undeniable to those who live it. Inside an Internet and Technology Addicts Anonymous meeting, she hears firsthand from people who say their lives have been consumed by screens. And, she sits down with psychiatrist Dr. Anna Lembke – author of Dopamine Nation – who's watched her patient' struggles shift from substance abuse to compulsive relationships with social media, gaming, and online content. This podcast isn’t a self-help guide to digital wellness. It’s a survival story from the front lines of 21st century childhood.…

This passage is repeated in all four gospels: pay attention. There are not many ways to God; there is on one way, the Way. Let’s go..
Listen to the wisdom of the psalmist.
Who likes to be disciplined? Only a wise child. Fools don't like to be disciplined. Unfortunately, everyone was born with foolishness bound in our hearts (Proverbs 22:15). Because of that, our earthly fathers disciplined us and therefore our heavenly Father, the Father of spirits will also discipline us so that we may bear peaceable fruit of righteousness, be holy as He is holy and in the end live. Proverbs 15:10b says, he who hate chastening shall die. We want to live. And if we want to live then we should embrace discipline. Besides, how do we know we are God's legit children? This verse has a lot to say about discipline. I shared an interesting personal testimony. Let me know your input. What is God doing in your life today in terms of chastening? Care to share?…
“No temptation has overtaken you except such is common to me.” I don’t know who I am speaking with today. I don’t know temptation one might be overtaken by right now. *Remember, it is common to men. Not only only someone else went through what you are going through but also God is faithful. God is faithful who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able. Let’s put this way, you can handle it. Take this promise to the bank today. Deposit it in your heart.…
Simple people love simplicity. Fools hate knowledge. Scorners delight in their scorning. Therefore they shall eat the fruit of their own way. But if they turn at the wisdom’s rebuke, they will dwell in safety and will be secure, without fear of evil. Is that you?
“The tongue is a little member and boasts great things,” says James 3:5. That’s why Proverbs 18:21 is more than “Name it and Claim it” concept. Today we will explore the power of tongue also we will understand the reason “name it and claim it” ain’t quite as good as it sound.
1 Take your eyes off Corona virus and put it on God. I believe Psalm 92 will encourage us today. 32:40
We love Psalm 91 very much, but who knew there is Psalm 92? Well, today’s podcast is all about God, the Maker of heaven and earth and the King of all things. Because He is the God and the Savior of all, it is good to give thanks and to praise Him. To declare His loving kindness in the morning and His faithfulness every evening. Let Psalm 92 teach us to do just that.…

I encourage everyone to meditate on the book of Hebrews. It will crucify self for good. Let’s start with a little taste of it today…
Philippians 4:8 is one of my blurry early verse I memorized. I didn’t know how depth the knowledge of God is at that time. But having that in mind helped me dig in depth; what is true? What is noble, lovely, trustworthy, of good report, has virtue? The answer is in our today’s word. Let’s go....

Have you ever seen a child? These beautiful, tiny humans so precious, so helpless we just want to cuddle them and protect. Well, as precious as they look, let’s not get too carried away. The Bible tell us that foolishness is bound up in the heart of a child. Whaaat? Yes, as tiny and gorge they look, don’t be fooled. Foolishness is bound in their hearts. If you know these truths you will know exactly how to raise them. In this episode we will discuss how so that we can drive that foolishness away from our kids. We want to raise a wise generation. Children who know what to do, when to do and how to do it. Children who make right decisions at all times. Those who know God and love Him and walk with Him. That’s how they become perfect. Let’s get in.…
In this episode I laid out the real reason Christians meet once a week in buildings called churches.

If anyone ask you a question: What is the most basic human need? What will be your answer? For many years I answered food, clothing and shelter. Of course, that’s what the world teaches us. But does the Bible says the same thing? Well that’s what we are looking into today’s episode. Let’s get down to the basics.…
When you ask any born again Christian, “when did you get born again?” The answers can sound like, o I was born again in the hotel room listening to Bill Graham or I was born again when I respond to an altar call at church in July last year. But when were you born again? This episode will shed some light on the truth about our salvation. My prayer is it will inspire you to examine how you live your life as a new creation. Is your life reflecting what God has done for you? Let’s dive!…

Do you labor, heavy laden? Jesus is giving an invitation to give you rest. The question is; are you up to giving up all your labor and enter His rest? Let’s explore what this real means.

Christians are commanded to be courageous. Courage is not only a command but also an exhortation. Courage is a virtue like faith or joy or humility. It is important in a Christian life if we are to be an army or ambassadors from heaven. When I hear a person identity him/herself as a Catholic, I never see any pushback from that but the moment you say you are Christian—watch the hell break. We need courage because that’s the only way we will be able to live victorious as Christian in this world. So it’s a length subject but in this episode I’ll give you a taste, an appetizer. Let’s encourage each other.…

1 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death 27:12
The Creator of the heavens and the earth and everything in it appeared as a man, Selah. The Bible tells us, He humbled Himself and became obedient. Why? How are we to respond to this? Let this episode shine the light in your hearts and allow the truth to set you free today.
Little children have a great faith. Little children don’t know how to doubt until they are taught. We teach children to not trust strangers not because we want to take away their great faith rather, we do that as a means of protecting them from this fallen and perverse generation. Jesus is painting a picture here for the proud and the doubtful adults so that they get this spiritual lesson in hope they get converted. Who doesn’t have a soft spot for little children? With that in mind....let’s listen!…
Love is not just empty words, love is action. John 3:16 reminds us how God demonstrated His love for us. Since God is our Father we also ought to love by action not just talking. In this segment, we gonna see this verse from a seed perspective. Come on, let us refresh each other.

1 This is part two 1 Samuel 8-15. The rise and fall of king Saul but we will focus on his son Jonatha 19:19
Saul’s kingdom in trouble only two years of his reign. He disobeyed God’s command therefore God rejected him as a king. In this episode we meet his son Jonathan who was the main reason I recorded this episode. I knew Jonathan in the shadow of David but he was a fine young man on his own right. And we are going to see why in this podcast. Overall, the lesson we get here is God’s commandment last will always be above anyone’s commandments. Those who trust Him will always be rewarded. That was the case with Jonathan also.…
