"Leave the World Behind" A Prophetic Watch on Tech, Climate, and Leadership
Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: A blended editorial-white paper-sermon for technologists, policymakers, pastors, and everyday readers who sense that “more software” isn’t the same as “more safety.” The text pairs clear, non-jargony explanations of EV and connected-car benefits with a sober tour of their systemic risks, then offers practical, testable reforms any DOT, automaker, utility, or city can adopt. Interludes of Scripture function as moral wayfinding, not proof-texts, keeping the piece grounded in stewardship language accessible to faith and non-faith audiences alike. A companion critique of leadership hypocrisy (performative toughness vs. neglected resilience) illustrates how moral brittleness mirrors technical brittleness. Readers leave with a checklist (manual fallback, audits, decentralization, drills), a bigger toolbox (diverse fuels and modes), and a charge: stop trusting the chariot more than the One who calls us to wisdom—and start designing so a glitch can’t gridlock a nation.
