The Oxford Handbook of Digital Theology is the first comprehensive overview of theological reflection on digital technology and culture. Grounded in the history of Christian theology, it attends to the longstanding relationship between technology and human experience. Digital theology addresses the distinctive sociopolitical, cultural, and theological implications of the digital. In recent years the academic field has grown considerably, driven by the rising use of digital technology by Christians and churches, the disruptions of the COVID-19 pandemic, and the emergence of generative artificial intelligence. To address this rapidly changing reality, the Handbook presents theological engagements with the ever-expanding applications of digital technology across all spheres of life.The Handbook is divided into four parts, written by an interdisciplinary group of scholars from diverse cultures and ecclesial traditions. Part One examines the use of digital technology in theological research and considers digital culture's influence on theological thought. Part Two presents the dialogue between digital culture and traditional theological topics. Part Three reviews research on the impact of digital technology on the life of the church and Christian ministry. Part Four offers theological reflections on the wider sociopolitical impact of digital technology. The Handbook is the definitive reference for theological reflection on digital technology

We are witnessing an unprecedented technological revolution. Every sphere of life from communications, work, economy, leisure, our homes, and health care is being digitised. These far-reaching changes demand careful consideration and discernment by churches participating in God’s redemptive work around the world. Digitalization of society is radically changing both the methods and conditions of missions. For the first time, this book explores the implications of digitality for Missio Dei in thought and practice. Bringing together theologians, missiologists, computer scientists and practitioners, the book considers a diverse range of topics from evangelism to pastoral care, cyber pilgrimages to biases in algorithms, public theology to homiletics and inculturation to contextualization.

With fascism on the march in Europe and a second World War looming, a group of Britain’s leading intellectuals – including T.S. Eliot, Karl Mannheim, John Middleton Murry, J. H. Oldham and Michael Polanyi – gathered together to explore ways of revitalising a culture that seemed to have lost its way. The group called themselves ‘the Moot’. Drawing on previously unpublished archival documents, this is the first in-depth study of the group’s work, writings and ideas in the decade of its existence from 1938-1947.Christian Modernism in an Age of Totalitarianism explores the ways in which an important and influential strand of Modernist thought in the interwar years turned back to Christian ideas to offer a blueprint for the revitalisation of European culture. In this way the book challenges conceptions of Modernism as a secular movement and sheds new light on the culture of the late Modernist period.
