Virtual People. Remote Intimacy. Googling Prayer. Tech Sabbath. Those are some of the video commentaries included in this DVD by Adam Thomas, one of the first Millennnials (age 25) ordained into the Episcopal priesthood. Adam points out that we live in a time in society unlike any other. We communicate daily without ever having to speak face-to-face, news breaks around the world in a matter of seconds, and our favorite TV shows can be viewed at our convenience. We are a people of connection and isolation--both at the same time. As Christians how do we view our faith and personal ministry in this culture? As Thomas says "the internet has added a new dimension to our lives, we are physical, emotional, spiritual and now virtual peole. But I believe that God continues to move through every facet of our existence, and that makes us new kinds of followers. We are digital disciples." This DVD can be used in a variety of settings such as Sunday School classes, youth groups, campus ministry, discipleship groups or as individuals in personal devotions. |
