Further more.......Jesus consistently modeled a life of presence, touch, and personal connection—he healed the sick with a touch, looked people in the eye, and took time for the marginalized. In an age where interactions can be filtered and virtual, Christians are called to follow Christ’s example of personal, in person ministry.

"I think that the more inconsequential one's daily life is, the more detached one becomes from reality." Yes. True. I think it important to not confuse the mundane with the inconsequential. When existence is tied to the rhythms of the earth, a mundane reliance on redundant chores is a healthy helping of reality.

That’s a great point. Many times, mundane effort and actions yield incredible things!

The phrase “high tech brings high touch” highlights a paradox in our increasingly digital world: as technology advances and automates much of life, the need for human connection, compassion, and spiritual grounding becomes even more essential. From a Christian perspective, this tension invites us to consider how we remain faithful to our calling as image-bearers of God in a world shaped by artificial intelligence, automation, and digital interfaces.
