| Riepilogo: | Digital technology has changed individual and communal lives radically, resulting in the emergence of online-based churches. Concerns regarding the nature of online-based churches call for a theological investigation. This article critically examines ongoing debates and argues that: An online-based church should be construed and welcomed from the perspective of theocentrism.

This article highlights the problems surrounding online-based churches, and elaborates ecclesiology in the digital era. |
