This dissertation presents qualitative research applying the work of Albert Borgmann to evangelical churches in America. Borgmann believes the most concrete expression of technology is the device that delivers a commodity with minimal involvement in the processes that create that commodity. Consumers in a technological culture default to a 'device paradigm' that shapes their worldview and drives them to commoditize focal realities and sacred things. People expect to enjoy thick spiritual experiences without participating in the processes that create and cultivate such experiences. The author suggests strategies to temper the device paradigm in American evangelical churches.
