001-Altar Your Algorithm with Tyler Stallons and Jackson Wells-Introduction

In the first episode of this podcast we introduce what we hope to get across. What has your heart? The internet is a tricky place. When we use it the right way, it's awesome! I mean, you can even spread the Gospel through it or post podcasts where you talk about Jesus for the whole world to hear! But it can also be a very distracting thing. We hope this podcast supplements your walk with Christ and helps you see that your spiritual algorithm needs to be curated and controlled by Him.
