| Summary: | This essay attends to how digital technology is shaping Christian religious education and its efforts of evangelization. It proposes that, while the use of digital technology has promise, an unreflective integration of digital technology can hinder Christian religious education's efforts of evangelization. This concern requires attention, particularly as the hasty shift to virtual instruction due to COVID-19 has thrust educators and students into a new modality of teaching and learning. In response, this essay recommends that the integration of digital technology in Christian religious education can serve evangelization when it incorporates the reflective practice of prophetic dialogue. |
