CAN GOD HELP WITH TECHNOLOGY?

BY JOHN WITNEY

Having worked in the IT (information technology) industry for over 20 years, I've often asked myself that question.

For a number of years I'd felt confident turning to prayer and trusting in God when faced with physical, financial, and relationship challenges. But I'd always struggled on my own to resolve technical problems at work. Then I found myself in a situation where all my experience and professional knowledge just weren't going to be enough. I had to really search deeper to find the answer.

Working in the financial markets for a major international company, I manage an area in the UK that is responsible for providing and maintaining what are termed "formal testing platforms." These consist of the computers, operating systems, networks, database, software, and the like, used in the final testing of software products before they're handed over to our customers.
