The Integration of Technology

The LDS church has grown substantially large in recent years and therefore new technological advances are required to manage its membership. Important church operations, such as financial bookkeeping and even proselyting, have become more efficient due to computers and the Internet. However, even though technological advances are necessary, it is important to remember their role as a tool. One shouldn't become swept away by technology and lose sight of the important spiritual aspects of life. I have often thought that spiritual matters don't mix well with worldly things like technology, but if we keep the right perspective, it seems merging the two is exactly what the church needs.
