Eine Tagung in Kooperation mit Dezernat 4.3 des Landeskirchenamts der EKiR und dem Evangelischen Kirchenverband Köln und Region.
Against the background of the international and ecumenical CONTOC study (Churches Online in Times of Corona) conducted in 2020 our presentation addresses – especially with reference to the results of the German and Swiss contexts – transformation processes of digital media communication for the different church fields of action and pastoral self-understanding. In doing so, we ask what role „digital affinity“ plays among pastors for their practice in the crisis and beyond, and what medium-term and long-term consequences can be derived from this for a future „digital church.“ This is intended to provide impulses for an understanding of the church in the „culture of digitality“ in the horizon of a „digital reformation“.
