Technology and the Sunday School

What a time to be alive!

Josh Hunt, presenter

1 Corinthians 9:22
I have become all things to all men so that by all possible means I might save some.

Jesus carpenter/ technology guy

τέκτων, ονος m: one who uses various materials (wood, stone, and metal) in building—‘builder, carpenter.’ οὐχ οὗτός ἐστιν ὁ τοῦ τέκτονος υἱός; ‘isn’t he the carpenter’s son?’ Mt 13:55. There is every reason to believe that in biblical times one who was regarded as a τέκτων would be skilled in the use of wood and stone and possibly even metal.
