Abstract

This article contemplates a reflexive approach about technological Christianity, emphasizing the technological growth in the XXI century, evangelical churches and their relationships with technology, and the problems that arise from this relationship. It is known that technology advances very quickly, invading more and more all sectors of society, and that it is indispensable in the globalized world. The computer, the TV, the cell phone, the notebook, the internet, the smartphone, the tablet, etc., are new things in constant evolution. This work points to the internet as a resource that can provide content that qualifies the relationship of the individual with God, which has become an extremely useful and necessary tool for the articulation of sectors of the evangelical church, since it dynamizes time and information and, above all, updates and broadens horizons. It is concluded, therefore, that the internet, doubtless, is a field of Christian action. In the case of the digital age, it is possible to affirm that the current Christian context demands a modernity of the languages and the multimedia interactions. However, faith can be affected by the many offers of distraction from technological resources when the central content is not communicated in a proper language to time and environment.
