Grits, Theology, Mission, and Life

One of the most difficult things I do as a pastor/leader is try to communicate. Trying to get across meaning in a culture where there is never quiet and information is flying out you faster then MLB pitch is hard (o.k. its almost impossible). In most preaching circles the use of powerpoint has become commonplace to try to combat the problem. However it is a tool that can be used or abused. And it can help communication but it can also inhibit communication. Also, we rarely think about it but the tools that we use to communicate can shape the way & what we communicate. And it is not always for the better. Check out this video for a comedic portrayal of all of these issues!

I readily admit that I have committed some of these errors myself!

Since we are on the topic of web video. This was a fascinating storyabout the current state of our culture and how web video is now apart of it. I would love to hear from you if you think youtube style video has legs and will continue to grow or it has run its course as a fade. And what might it look for for churches and ministries use that for kingdom purposes. Post a comment and let me know.
