Martin Bionics: Redeeming Legs

A Fallen World

Becasue we live in a fallen world, there is brokeness not just in our souls but in our bodies. There is disease, hunger, scars, and genetic disfunction. Another major problem is the loss of limbs. What does someone do when they lose a limb, especially a leg? The human life includes hours of walking every day, and working often requires walking.

Martin Bionics

Jay Martin and Blake Gudgel invented “NASA-inspired prosthetic socket technologies” to innovate the way prosthetics are made. They have taken special care to ensure the comfortability of the wearer, and have even included some leg suspension in their design to relieve some of the preasure. This new technology gives amputees a world of new opportunities in their everyday life. Martin Bionics is redeeming what it means to be an amputee.

Christians and Redemptive Technology

Martin Bionics creatively uses technology to redeem the hurt, broken, and needy. Christians in the twentith-century have a unique oppertunity to use new technology for the benefit of others. Innovation is waiting for the bold. God has given us the creativity to help the lost. Christians can now use modern technology with their creativity to further God’s Kingdom. Business does not have to be selfish, but it can be transformational and redemptive.
