On Christian Engagement with Digital Technologies: A Reformed Perspective
View through CrossRef
This essay proposes that the Reformed theology of ordinary life has promising principles that can be applied to the recent challenges of the digital age. It first examines how contemporary scholars have grappled with the challenges posed by virtual life, highlighting their Advantages and disadvantages. Then, it suggests that the Reformed attitude for sanctifying ordinary life leads Christians inevitably to embrace discipline in their use of technology. The author recommends digital resistance and digital intentionality as judicious parameters for Christian engagement in a digital age. KEYWORDS: Theology of common life, Christian vocation, technology, digital technologies, Christian life, Reformed worldview
