I find it hard not to get incredibly distracted by everything else out there. <br /><br />I read just this morning on my Kindle (and tweeted it—I do love technology) that one edition of the New York Times has more information than a 17th century Britisher would come across in a lifetime (from Richard Swenson in “Margin”). Don’t know how accurate that is, but I find it easy to believe. No wonder I feel I can’t keep up.

I don’t think I could have envisioned this day of listening whenever and wherever! <br /><br />DaisyGirl,<br />I so agree. I know that technology has created many new routes of temptation, but it’s also opened up new ways of sharing the gospel and being encouraged by it. It always goes back to the heart, huh?Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-13212622260655558712011-06-13T13:21:19.589-05:002011-06-13T13:21:19.589-05:00Free podcasts, etc. is one of the reasons I praise...Free podcasts, etc. is one of the reasons I praise modern technology. While it puts bad things easily at our fingertips, it also puts very great things as easily accessible. It's all in how you use it. <br /><br />But isn't it just great having all the teaching and Good News to listen to whenever you want?DaisyGirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08321158663250563913noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-90312075932520674272011-06-13T11:51:43.160-05:002011-06-13T11:51:43.160-05:00Don't think I could have raised my girls witho...Don't think I could have raised my girls without all of the help I used to get from those Focus on the Family radio broadcasts...who knew in the 80's that there would come a day I could listen when and where I want!elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06572872315082254364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-30835618777035311602011-06-13T09:43:04.253-05:002011-06-13T09:43:04.253-05:00Hannah,

I would record the show on a cassette tape late Saturday afternoons when it would air (if I remembered) or else early on Sunday morning when it would air again. So catching it on the podcast has been much easier on my scheduling. :-) <br /><br />Yes, his lectures are very interesting. I love his passion for passing on Truth. He’s a great influence for maintaining the purity of the gospel message.Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-83946677750082680272011-06-13T09:37:42.009-05:002011-06-13T09:37:42.009-05:00Barbara,

I use a cheap little portable speaker to hook up to my mp3, and it works fine for in-house and in the car. My car is too old to have a USB port for direct access, but I do have a cassette tape thing with a cord (it’s cheap) that I plug into my mp3 so I can listen in the car through my car speakers instead of the portable speaker.<br /><br />But my favorite option is some good earphones I got for Christmas because they block out outside noise SO much better. I can still hear a podcast next to the washing machine or while vacuuming, for example, which I couldn’t do with my cheaper earbuds or earphones when the competing noise was so loud. They also block out TV noise if I have a white track playing. That’s the main reason I invested in them so I can read without distraction while Jeff is watching TV. :-)Lisa notes...https://www.blogger.com/profile/07103364395238899215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7748971557355406797.post-2068983916084153232011-06-13T09:31:11.647-05:002011-06-13T09:31:11.647-05:00We like to listen to Ravi Zecharias on Sunday on o...We like to listen to Ravi Zecharias on Sunday on our way to church ( not on podcast.)

I like to listen to things while cooking or cleaning or getting ready in the mornings but usually listen to the Christian radio station or music CDs. My car doesn't have a CD player, and often when I am going to or from Mom's, the kids program is on the Christian station, and I'd so like to listen to something else. I may have to add that to my birthday list. :-) I've never been sure if I could stand earphones or earbuds, but I should borrow some to try out.Barbara H.http://barbarah.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
