Theologians from the United States and Germany came together to discuss the question: Can theology as a discipline contribute to the analysis, conceptualization and assessment of the emergent logic of “the digital”? Areas of exploration included theological anthropology with special emphasis on accountability and diversity; concepts of freedom; memory and knowledge; and scripture as authority and interface.
The speakers included students and professors from Vanderbilt University, Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Universität Bochum,
Iliff School of Theology, Universität Berlin, Universität Tübingen, Drew University, Princeton Theological Seminary, and FEST Heidelberg.

“At Princeton, we had precept groups—we’d engage text and debate. That gave me confidence to have those conversations anywhere.”
