Jason Clark zitiert ein paar sehr interessante Aussagen von Fred Peatross:

“If one thinks in terms of communication, culture does and has always shaped us.

1) Oral (Ancient World)
?B.C. — A.D. 1500
Culture–Liturgical Church
Worship centered on a mystic reenactment of sacred and eternal events.

2) Print (Modern World)
Culture–Reformation Church
1500–1950
An orderly reinfocement of the principles of faith and presentation of the gospel. The service centers on preaching. Worship centers on hymns that confirm scriptural and doctrinal truth. Content is more importan than style. The sermon is the focal point of the service.

3) Broadcast (Postmodern)
Culture–Seeker/Celebration Church
1950–2010
A dramatic presentation and celebration of the gospel. The service centers on praise and follows a large event entertainment format. The worship team energizes the audience. The speaker uses stories and personal experinces to connect with the audience.

4) Digital (Convergent)
Culture–Convergent Church
2010–
An interactive, intimate, multisensory, improvisational, immersive, mystical, highly engaging experience. An open-ended experience, exploring a wide range of ways to express worship. Ritual, preaching, and praise of the earlier eras are used as elements to create a higly engaging and unique experience.”
