The Changing Landscape of Technology and Social Media

Okay, a word from the past. Ministry communications were based on office phone lines, home land lines, mailouts to members, and the church bulletin. As a new minister, I sat in a deacon’s meeting and discussed the purchase of something called a “copy machine” that would make 500 copies a month. The church didn’t buy it, carbon paper was good enough.
Fast forward, now I use email, it’s dull and lifeless, but I still use it. I love twitter, couldn’t live without my Blackberry, our churches makes thousands of copies on seven large copiers, we make videos, and Ustream our church events. Grab the technology, it’s awesome.
