The Problem With Loving Your Form of Technology

I recently guest posted this on ChurchCrunch.com.

I remember it like it was yesterday.

One moment I’m in 8 year old dreamland, and the next minute I’m hearing the crazy sounds of southern gospel music with vocal accompaniment from my parents. They would hit the play button and instantly the entire house would be filled with singing. Really, really loud singing.

Apparently they thought that the twang of Dolly Parton singing “I Believe In Angels” was the perfect alarm clock to wake up a brood of four sleepy kids before heading off to church. They were wrong. I remember screaming whenever they would turn on the music. It irked me to my core. “How insensitive,” I thought, that they would do that?
