Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book shows that theology is both integrally related to formation in Jesus Christ and shapes our understanding of the world. Christian formation is incomplete and impossible without theological formation, because Christ transforms our hearts and minds, attuning them to the reality of God. As the authors explore the deep connections between theology and the life of the Christian, they emphasize Christian formation as a defining feature of the church, arguing that theology must be integrally connected to the church's traditions and practices.

Download or read book The Virtual Body of Christ in a Suffering World written by Deanna A. Thompson and published by Abingdon Press. This book was released on 2016-11-01 with total page 131 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in a wired world where 24/7 digital connectivity is increasingly the norm. Christian megachurch communities often embrace this reality wholeheartedly while more traditional churches often seem hesitant and overwhelmed by the need for an interactive website, a Facebook page and a twitter feed. This book accepts digital connectivity as our reality, but presents a vision of how faith communities can utilize technology to better be the body of Christ to those who are hurting while also helping followers of Christ think critically about the limits of our digital attachments. This book begins with a conversion story of a non-cell phone owning, non-Facebook using religion professor judgmental of the ability of digital tools to enhance relationships. A stage IV cancer diagnosis later, in the midst of being held up by virtual communities of support, a conversion occurs: this religion professor benefits in embodied ways from virtual sources and wants to convert others to the reality that the body of Christ can and does exist virtually and makes embodied difference in the lives of those who are hurting. The book neither uncritically embraces nor rejects the constant digital connectivity present in our lives. Rather it calls on the church to a) recognize ways in which digital social networks already enact the virtual body of Christ; b) tap into and expand how Christ is being experienced virtually; c) embrace thoughtfully the material effects of our new augmented reality, and c) influence utilization of technology that minimizes distraction and maximizes attentiveness toward God and the world God loves.
Download or read book Digital Media Use and Adolescent Christian Formation written by Matthew Judson Dixon and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 108 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many schools, classrooms, and homes naively embrace the frequent use technology assuming its newness and apparent helpfulness must be utilized to live in the modern age. However, many fail to ask what effect the frequency and form of technological use is having on the Christian formation of adolescents. If one of the primary goals of Christian education is to promote Christian formation, this must be considered by all Christian educators as well. This research serves to demonstrate the effects of both the frequency and form of digital media use among adolescents and provide practical implications for Christian educators and families alike. Chapter 1 details the problem evident within American culture that has seen the use (and subsequent overuse) of digital media--specifically among adolescents. This chapter serves to demonstrate the need for research. Chapter 2 looks at the current literature base in regard to the frequency and form of digital media use among adolescents. Additionally, attention is given to the concept of Christian formation both in definition and in process. Finally, the relationship of digital media use to adolescent Christian formation is addressed based upon the precedent literature. The overall research design can be found in chapter 3 as it looks at the purpose, design overview, population, delimitations, and instrumentation. The use of the Faith Maturity Scale (FMS) was utilized alongside an additional quantitative look at the frequency and form of digital media use among adolescents. Special attention was given to students in Christian schools in the United States. Chapter 4 presents the research findings demonstrating nearly no correlation between the frequency and form of digital media use and the Christian formation of adolescents. Each area demonstrated no significant correlation coefficient worth noting. Specific areas worth noting specifically within the FMS are discussed as possibilities for future study. Chapter 5 analyzes the present dating noting the need for Christians to use various tools within God's creation (such as digital media) for good purposes just as was mandated in the Garden of Eden (Gen 1:28). The tools given are not what prohibit Christian formation. Rather, the applications of these tools by the human heart have the ability to produce both good and evil (Jer 17:9).

Download or read book Christian Faith Formation and Education written by Ros Stuart-Buttle and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-11-13 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book discusses the relationship between faith, formation and education. Rooted in a variety of discourses, the book offers original insights into the education and formation of the human person, both theoretical and practical. Issues are considered within a context of contemporary tensions generated by an increasingly pluralist society with antipathy to religious faith, and debated from interdenominational Christian perspectives. Including chapters by an international team of experts, the volume demonstrates how Christian faith holds significance for educational practice and human development. It argues against the common assumption that there can be a neutral approach to education, whilst at the same time advocating a critical dimension to faith education. It brings fresh thinking about faith and formation, which demands attention given the fast-changing political, educational and socio-cultural forces of today. It will appeal to students and researchers involved in Christian educational practice.
