TY - THES T1 - Pixelated Stained Glass: A Fantasy Theme Analysis of Online and Face-to-Face Christian Community Y1 - 2007 A1 - Elizabeth B. Jones AB - This thesis investigates how two Christian communities – differentiated primarily by their medium of communication – characterize and cast Christian community. The method of fantasy theme analysis was used to explore this thesis’s central research question; namely, are content differences present in the ways in which face-to-face and digital communication systems characterize and cast the Christian sense of community? After an analysis of St. Pixels Church of the Internet (digital communication) and St. Luke’s United Methodist Church (face-to-face communication) it was found that the online community demonstrated a rhetorical vision of koinonia, while the face-to-face community demonstrated a rhetorical vision of ekklesia.
