Mission Frontiers 36, 3 (May-June 2014)


The May-June 2014 issue of Mission Frontiers, published by the U.S. Center for World Mission, contains a number of articles under the heading ‘From Gutenberg to Zuckerberg’.

‘In the middle of the last decade, we witnessed the embryonic releases of social media and networks, and we are now participating in the maturing digital social networks. The Zuckerberg generation and its apps have cajoled, encouraged, and tethered us into a narcissistic, instantaneous, conversational environment. From Gutenberg to Zuckerberg, the global resurgence of orality has arrived with vigor, and has tectonic implications for our stewardship of the gospel for this century.’

Individual articles can be accessed from here, and the whole issue (12.6 MB) can be downloaded as a pdf here.
