Ok, so a church has a Facebook page - now that is no big deal...but a church that is entirely or exclusively found on Facebook...well that is different.
See this CNN report where a church is putting an exclusive presence just on Facebook.
Like the critic, Jon Acuff, who is interviewed for the piece, I have serious concerns believing that an online church can serve as a serogate for a "spacial" church. Church is ultimately an "incarnational" encounter and experience, and therefore believing that it can be merely a virtual experience found in the virtual world, undercuts it's vibrancy and power.
