God and the World Wide Web with Donna Bowman: Homebrewed Christianity 59
By Chad Crawford • Aug 5th, 2009 • Category: podcast
We’ll let Donna introduce herself as she does on her blog:
50% theologian, 50% pop culture junkie, 50% mom, 50% professor. That’s at least two people, right, math majors?
She also teaches interdisciplinary studies, Twitters prolifically, and is the author of The Divine Decision: A Process Doctrine of Election.
In this episode, Tripp interviews Donna about how this ‘series of tubes’ known as the internet enhances theological imagination. This particular discussion began when Tripp asked, ‘What kind of theological questions does social networking bring to mind?’
Additionally, listen to this if you want to know any of the following information:
How Donna got to sit on the Morpheus chair and the Matrix Ducati.
