Description
As our communities continue their migration from face-to-face interactions to digital gathering spaces, many of us are left behind, wondering, “Where did everybody go?” The cultural turn toward the virtual marks a radical shift away from the incarnational life and forces the Christian to defend what was formerly assumed: the value of the human body. This session will use theological insights to think critically about technological innovations that impact our Christian understanding of embodiment, community and sexuality.
