About

A wealth of material related to the interactions between faith and technology has been generated over time to help Christian engineers reflect on and evaluate their work and technology development more generally. However, up till now, there has been no central location where this large variety of resources can easily be accessed. While other organizations and websites have offered repositories or collections related to this subject, this website is an effort to develop a more formal faith and technology resource hub. The vision for the hub is that it will include a comprehensive searchable directory of resources addressing faith and technology, as well as a browsable, organized, curated, and annotated set of webpages containing links to particularly important and relevant references. This effort is a continuation of work that was presented in a panel session at the 2009 Christian Engineering Conference titled “The Christian Engineer’s Bookshelf.” This panel was an initial attempt at identifying a set of foundational resources that Christians involved in technology could consult to bring their faith to bear on their work.

For the initial stages of this project, the decisions on what to include were framed by the extent to which particular resources contribute to answering two central questions:

1. How does Christian faith apply to evaluating technology development and/or promoting responsible engineering design?
2. How does engineering and/or technology deepen or broaden our understanding of living out our Christian faith?
