Every control system needs a circuit breaker - a device that cuts the power before the current destroys what it flows through. Today, a different kind of current hums through notifications that fracture our prayers, feeds that reshape our identity, and algorithms that compete for the attention God designed for Himself.
The damage is not theoretical. It is measured in marriages strained by screens, children raised by devices, anxiety fueled by endless scrolling, and a faith life slowly starved of the silence it needs to hear God speak.
The Circuit Breaker is a 100-day devotional that bridges the gap between biblical wisdom and the digital age.
Written by an engineer who spent four decades understanding how systems work - and how they fail - this book uses the language of control systems, feedback loops, and safety protocols to illuminate spiritual truths that have never been more urgent.
Each of the 100 days includes:
- A Scripture passage anchoring the day's teaching
- An Engineer's Note from real-world industrial experience
- A Teaching connecting biblical truth to digital-age challenges
- Mirror questions for honest self-reflection
- A practical Circuit Breaker exercise
- A Prayer crafted for the day's specific struggle
- Going Deeper resources for continued study
Seven sections address every way technology competes with your faith: The Attention War The Identity Crisis The Relationship Fracture The Truth Crisis The Anxiety Engine The Stewardship Test The Freedom Declaration
Whether you are a believer drowning in notifications, a parent worried about your family's screen habits, a pastor watching your congregation fragment, or someone who senses that something important is being lost to the glow of the screen - this book was written for you.
Includes a Digital Covenant template, a 14-week Small Group Leader's Guide, and recommended resources.
The Engineer who designed you has better plans than the algorithm. Start your 100 days today.
