Whether you are relistening or hearing them for the first time, we pray that you are blessed, encouraged, and challenged.

So sit back and enjoy; we'll see you back in August for all-new episodes.

Today's episode is part of one of our Pornography Series with Ted Shimer and Hunter House.

Founder of Self Ctrl, Ian McCready, returns for Part 2 of his talk with Susan, discussing the addictiveness of technology.

While this is our Father's Day special, Ian and Susan delve into questions that are for fathers and anyone who partakes in technology, such as:

1) Is this game healthy for me and my family?

2) What does self-control look like for me?

3) Does this technology leave room for God in my life? Does it leave room for healthy relationships with others?

Did you know that the first commercially available home video game was "Pong," released in 1972?

Since then, access to video games has increased exponentially over the last 50+ years, with the rise accelerating further with the introduction of mobile games on our phones.

And yes...they can be fun, challenging, and stimulating, but at what cost?

All this month, Susan is joined by Ian McCready, the founder of Self-Ctrl, a Northwest Arkansas Non-profit that has taken on the mission to expose the traumatic and addictive nature of video games and screen time and, as their mission statement says: To serve families and individuals by educating, equiping and empowering them to build self control around screen time and video gaming to redeem the time for good works.
