Networked Theology – Negotiating Faith in Digital Culture
Baker Academic, Div of Baker Publishing Group (Verlag)
978-0-8010-4914-9 (ISBN)
This informed theology of communication and media analyzes how we consume new media and technologies and discusses the impact on our social and religious lives. Combining expertise in religion online, theology, and technology, the authors synthesize scholarly work on religion and the internet for a nonspecialist audience. They show that both media studies and theology offer important resources for helping Christians engage in a thoughtful and faith-based critical evaluation of the effect of new media technologies on society, our lives, and the church.

He holds an MSc in computer science and previously worked in the information technology sector. He speaks frequently on technology and new media.
