15 Dec THE TECH-WISE FAMILY BY ANDY CROUCH, CHAPTER 6
The Tech-Wise Family Chapter 6 “The Good News About Boredom” – Josh Feil“Boredom is actually a crucial warning sign – as important in its own way as physical pain. It’s a sign that our capacity for wonder and delight, contemplation and attention, real play and fruitful work has been dangerously depleted.”
