Originally published nearly forty years ago as a spiritual successor to Carl Mitcham and Robert Mackey's Philosophy and Technology, the essays collected in the two volumes of Theology and Technology span an array of theological attitudes and perspectives providing sufficient material for careful reflection and engagement. The first volume offers five general attitudes toward technology based off of H. Richard Niebuhr's five ideal types in Christ and Culture. The second volume includes biblical, historical, and modern theological engagements with the place of technology in the Christian life. This ecumenical collection ranges from authors who enthusiastically support technological development to those cynical of technique and engages the Christian tradition from the church fathers to recent theologians like Bernard Lonergan and Jacques Ellul. Taken together, these essays, some reproductions of earlier work and others original for this project, provide any student of theology a fitting entree into considering the place of technology in the realm of the sacred.

This elderberry creamed honey tastes fantastic! The elderberry adds that little bit of fruitiness to the honey that makes it a great addition to your breakfast or as a treat for dessert. I love just spreading it on a piece of toast. And the added immunity benefits from the elderberry makes this a new staple in my kitchen.
This coffee tastes absolutely amazing! The flavor is smooth, with the tiniest hint of sweetness. These beans are great quality with no bitterness whatsoever! This has become my new favorite coffee!
