"""I recommend this book to fellow liturgical scholars and anyone interested in the trajectory of Christian worship in twenty-first century. Berger's insights can easily extend to those tasked with spiritual and leadership formation in the digital environment."" - Kyle Schiefelbein-Guerrero, Reading Religion ""Work as insightful as Berger’s should not be hidden in graduate seminars; her work is an important theoretical framework for engaging digital culture from a theological perspective, no matter the classroom."" - Katherine G. Schmidt, Molloy College ""Berger writes thoughtfully and with considerable subtlety. The integration of the practices she describes into her own life and experience make this, at times, a somewhat intimate volume, and this personal voice is an incredibly relatable one. I found it easy to place myself in the shoes of someone trying out a wide range of often less-than-ideal interactions which have the potential to intrigue and surprise both in moments of failure and in moments of success [...] The volume is to be valued for pushing liturgical studies to engage with ongoing development in digital practice, however it consistently points beyond itself and makes it clear that much more is still needed in order to fully think through the many questions raised by the ever-shifting devotional practices of contemporary Christian worship."" - Mark Porter, Universität Erfurt, Germany"
