"Remaining Human in the Days of Miracle and Wonder"
by Rev. Scott Gerard Prinster

Our lives are ever more filled -- overfilled, some might say -- with technologies promising to make our days easier, safer, more comfortable and pleasurable. As we embrace smartphones, Google Maps, security cameras, and social media, we also accept their often unacknowledged drawbacks in the erosion of privacy, freedom, attention, and intimacy. Are we, as critics claim, raising new generations of people lacking in the qualities most basic to our humanity and our civilization? And if this threat is real, how can we defend the values endangered by this electronic progress?

Violist Marika Fisher Hoyt, with pianist Dan Broner, will play the musical offerings.
