Welcome back to Transforming Culture! This week, we have Paul Carter on the podcast, and he's sharing with us about Technology and the Home. Paul is a great resource for conversations like this - he's had to be all over the rapid technological transformation of the church in the last five years, and we have appreciated his leadership in mentoring and caring for believers across the country. He's been a long-time friend to MBC, and we're always so thrilled to have him share with us!
