Digital Strategies to Help Your Children be Good Stewards of Technology with Grant Cummings
In this episode of the Shepherd Press Podcast, Grant Cummings joins Shannon Kay McCoy to discuss how Christian parents can shepherd children’s hearts in a digital world. Rather than treating technology as the enemy or relying on filters alone, this conversation focuses on digital discipleship, biblical discernment, and practical guardrails that help address issues of the heart. Grant brings extensive experience in technology and cybersecurity, along with ministry, counseling, and parenting experience, to help families think clearly about technology usage, social media, gaming, and AI. The central focus throughout this conversation is not simply what children are doing online, but what their hearts are looking for there, covered in his new book, Safe@home. This episode unpacks: How to help your kids become mindful and wise technology users How to address issues of the heart, rather than mere behavior How to help your kids use technology to cultivate their gifts Practical steps to guard your kids from the dangers of media How to frame technology through a biblical worldview Recommended Resources: Safe@home by Grant Cummings
