Christian faith, second by second

A maximum of 60 seconds – the shorter, the better. Content glides through feeds every second. Right in the middle of it all: blessing. This talk explores the tension between digital acceleration and spiritual deepening. As a pastor (Yeet Network/Sæleute), I experience every day how a fleeting swipe can give rise to digital pastoral care when people pause whilst scrolling. I’ll share stories of moments when 15-second clips struck a deep chord, whilst also reflecting on the limitations of the format. A plea for mindful digital presence that touches people at just the right moment.
Moderation: Prof. Dr. Elisabeth Naurath (University of Augsburg)
