The second day of our workshop on "Biblical Stories in the Digital Culture" here at United Theological College began with a video meditation on the story of "Paying Taxes to Caesar." It was the section of the story that the participant had chosen to learn and tell in today's epic telling of Mark. So last night he produced a video for our morning prayer! It was very good and so was his telling. This is his picture (he took his wallet out as a prop in the story).
Our program here concluded with a public lecture that Tom gave entitled "Experiencing the Resurrection of Jesus Christ in Digital Culture." The hall was full, which was very gratifying and the lecture went well with thoughtful questions afterwards.
Tomorrow early a.m. we head for our last venue: the Navaspoorthi Kendra (NSK) also here in Bangalore where we will all present papers at a 3-day Scholars' Conference for Bible professors from the many theological colleges in Bangalore.
Wow! You guys have really been busy! What a great opportunity to begin a conversation about biblical storytelling and digital culture in so many different settings in India. Thanks for the reports and the pictures!
