Hello, fellow knowledge seekers!
This is your class check-in list. Every week, I shall post my small reflection. YOU ARE REQUIRED to interact (use the emoji option) or, if you wish, comment. This simple interaction will function as our class register for me, as your lecturer, to log your weekly activity on this Assignment. Remember that you must make at least three weekly blog entries and interact with a minimum of two classmates between 30 August and 16 September.
This blog will explore how online Religion provides a space for Christian community building and theologizing. It will also explore how online Christian theological forums provide a space for deepening theological and biblical education that challenges normative Christian teaching and practice, which legitimizes and reproduces racism, sexism, and classism while still engaging with established doctrines and biblical interpretations.
Homebrewed Christianity was established in 2008 by a Southern Baptist, Tripp Fuller. Initially, it was a platform reflecting on Christian Theology. It has since evolved into a multipronged platform, offering an interactive online community, podcasts, YouTube, and in-person camps and gatherings that engage with preeminent scholars. Thus, Homebrewed Christianity crosses the boundaries between the academy, seminaries, the institutional church and the grassroots.
Nomad is a lively online community that offers podcasts, devotions and contemplations aimed specifically at Christian who are deeply questioning the traditional theologies . Here not only theology is discussed by digital and in person rituals, contemplations from within the Christian tradition is unearthed and re-envisioned for today’s questions. Although based in the UK, through the live listener map, the participant has the option to connect with other Nomads around the world.
