The great surprise for some is the rise/return of interest in all things spiritual as we move into the 21st century. Religion is subject matter in political circles as well as in communities of faith, whether it is a conversation about one religion versus another or atheists versus believers. The old lines between sacred and secular have given way and a new cultural landscape is emerging in which ideas about the sacred play a major part. Digital media culture has transformed the way ideas and information are gathered and shared, what does all of this mean for faith in the 21st century? What does religion look like in our new realities? Exploring the contours of the new religious landscapes.
