Description

The average American adult now consumes 11.7 hours of media each day -- almost half a year for every year of our adult lives. We are irrefutably addicted to the media on a massive scale that simply dwarfs any and every other activity in our lives. We live in what digital media pioneer Jeff Einstein calls "the Great Age of Mediation," an extreme time by definition, a time when obsessive-compulsive behavior and addiction are the rules, not the exceptions. Put God First explains how our national addiction to all things media threatens and erodes the quality of our lives and communities. How we navigate the confluence of media, addiction, and God in the Great Age of Mediation is the single most defining and compelling issue of our time. In Put God First we learn how to recapture our time and reintroduce God into our lives as a voice of reason and moderation in the Great Age of Mediation. Forged in common sense and tempered by compassion, Put God First correctly identifies addiction as a spiritual problem first and foremost, and offers an abysmally simple and non-sectarian step-by-step guide to reclaiming the quality of our lives and communities in the Great Age of Mediation. Digital media expert and entrepreneur Jaffer Ali says, "This is an important book...it shows us how a return to faith translates into a return to reason."
