Can God Be Found in the Algorithm?
Jul 18, 2025
In a world increasingly shaped by algorithms, it’s worth considering: Can God be found in the digital space? While technology can be a tool for connection and learning, it often pulls us away from the deeper, spiritual experiences that nurture our souls. When I first started "experiencing" my smartphone I couldn't put it down and I kept asking myself, "what are you looking for?" I realized that I was wondering if God was anywhere in there. Later I decided that God is in the goodness and next to us in the badness - wherever that might be. Seek balance by using digital tools to enrich your faith, but also make time for moments of quiet reflection, prayer, and spiritual growth that are beyond the reach of any algorithm. Remember that true connection with the divine often happens in stillness, away from the constant noise of our digital life. Create sacred spaces in your daily routine where you can tune out the digital world and reconnect with your spiritual self. God is waiting, just there, for you.
