Abstract

The purpose of this study is to study the experiences of online service during the COVID-19 and to find out Korean Christians' perception. To this end, this study examines the differences in online service content, interactions with pastors and lay people through online service, online service environment, and online service satisfaction. A survey was conducted for 176 Korean Christians over the age of 18 living in the metropolitan area. As a result, according to the size of the church attending, the period of faith, and the position, there was a difference between groups in the online service contents, interactions with pastors and lay people through online service, online service environment, and online service satisfaction. The factors influencing the satisfaction of online service were the interaction with the lay people, the online service environment, and the online service content in that order. Based on the results of this study, a discussion on the improvement of online service satisfaction and a suggestion for further research are presented.

연구 목적 : 본 연구는 코로나19 시기 한국 교회에서 실시한 온라인 예배에 대한 이해를 위해 온라인 예배 내용, 온라인 예배를 통한 목회자 및 평신도와의 상호작용, 온라인 예배 환경, 온라인 예배 만족도의 차이가 있는지 확인하고, 온라인 예배 만족도에 영향을 주는 변인을 분석하고자 하였다. 연구 내용 및 방법 : 수도권 지역에 거주하는 만 18세 이상의 기독교인을 대상으로 온라인 설문조사 방식으로 실시하였으며, 최종 176명이 참여하였다. 집단 간 평균 차이를 밝히기 위해 t-test, ANOVA 분석을 하였고, 온라인 예배 만족도에 영향을 주는 변인이 무엇인지 확인하기 위해 위계적 회귀분석을 실시하였다. 결론 및 제언 : 출석하는 교회 규모, 신앙 기간, 직분에 따라 온라인 예배 내용, 온라인 예배를 통한 목회자 및 평신도와의 상호작용, 온라인 예배 환경, 온라인 예배 만족도에서 집단 별 차이를 보였다. 온라인 예배 만족도에 영향을 주는 요인으로 평신도와의 상호작용, 온라인 예배 환경, 온라인 예배 내용 순으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과를 바탕으로 코로나19 이후 지속될 온라인 예배 만족도 향상에 관한 논의 및 후속 연구를 위한 논의를 제시하였다.
