You, Your Family and the Internet with David Clark

Almost 80% of Americans are connected to the internet, and over two billion people around the world are on the world wide web.  The unimaginable amount of information and communication that is piped into our homes through high-speed cable and DSL connections provide us with opportunities unparalleled by any previous generation.  We can now be instantly connected with friends and loved ones across the globe through Skype and Facebook while at the same time be kept up-to-date on breaking news stories and heated theological debates.  Yet, this technological revolution also presents us with dangers and temptations we must constantly guard against.  Even in the church, you have people hooked on immoral websites, children getting into life-threatening online relationships and the ever increasing loss of privacy we unwittingly seem to submit to without thought.  So what are we to do?
 

Today on the KevCast we welcome David Clark, author of the book You, Your Family and the Internet: What Every Christian in the Digital Age Ought to Know.  With a degree in Computer Science and Electronics, David Clark has worked with computer technologies for more than thirty years and has carried out postgraduate research into the uses of Artificial Intelligence in the design of silicon chips. He has published a number of technical papers at various conferences, ranging from the use of Artificial Intelligence to Risk Analysis. Clark has also served on the boards of Evangelical Times and Evangelical Press.
 

This will be a live broadcast and your questions about internet safety are welcome.
