Some churches use technology well; some do not. Many use it simply because it is done by other churches or because it is common in western culture.
Rarely do questions around theological and philosophical implications of the power of technology arise. For example, the screen increasingly functions as a primary epistemological source in Western society, eclipsing “hard copy” print (i.e., books).
What does this mean for faith that has held a book as a central epistemological source for centuries?
The Technology & Communication for Ministry course provides practical skills in using key technologies and will also build a framework for care in using these technologies in ministry.
