Book part: Responding to the Challenges of Religious Storying in a Digital Age: Building New Opportunities through www.Feautor.org
Abstract
Religious storying – the process of creating and forming religious identity within and through a religious community’s stories – is dramatically affected by the rise and ubiquity of digital storying processes present within wider cultural contexts, particularly those impacted by what has been termed “mass media”. Most specifically, processes of authority (authorizing), production of authenticity, and structure of agency are shifted; in some cases flattened, in others narrowed or constricted. A specific website created to provide a vehicle for publishing and reviewing “open sourced” religious resources is explored as one mechanism of response to this shift in cultural context.
