The average person now spends about eleven hours a day on some form of media. But as we’re working on our computers, scrolling through social media, and watching Netflix at night, what are we missing out on in our real-life relationships?
In this Focus on the Family podcast, Wendy Speake talks about what happened when she went off social media for forty days. She talks about how she got closer to her children and her spouse, found a new intimacy with God, and realised that life is pretty beautiful if you look around and appreciate it.

Practice Gratefulness
An attitude of gratitude is something we all need to have and be able to teach our children. We know that being thankful has physiological benefits, but it’s also good for our mental health and happiness. It is especially important for those of us with faith to practice gratefulness.
