President Eyring, First Counselor in the First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints made a few comments at the dedication of the BYU Broadcasting Building that have made me stop and think.

He said that the Lord “has revealed the technology that enables the Church to take full advantage of these advances,” and that we should, “never forget that while we have computers, cameras, microphones, fiber-optic networks, clouds, and satellites, we have failed if we do not rely on the Holy Ghost.”

Speaking of the Savior, he said, “If our technology does not improve the lives of others and help bring them home to Him, we have missed the mark.”
