Based on an ambitious field study of internet-based religious community, this book breaks new ground both conceptually and methodologically. It is a must-read for those interested in deepening our understanding of religion in the digital age. (Stewart M. Hoover, Professor, University of Colorado) It used to be that people sent prayers skyward. Now they use the internet. Heidi Campbell does an impressive job of showing how people find religion online and offline. And when people go online, religion changes. People are weaving together a variety of religious experiences. They're creating a networked personal religion instead of belonging to only one denomination and congregation. (Barry Wellman, Professor and Director, NetLab, University of Toronto)
