How about the MemberHub.com blog! http://blog.memberhub.com Thanks ;-).

I completely agree, that you've got to *commit*. The churches that are gettig the most value and finding success with our product are the ones that taking the time to think it through; even just a little and then commit to the platform. For most that means the main communication tool for the church but it can mean other things. Commit...."...besides, you're late to the game..." lol. Good post John.

This reminds me of our human3rror interview post! http://blog.memberhub.com/would-it-be-dangerous-i...

Great post Gordon! I tend to agree with most of what you're saying. The biggest thing that comes to mind for me is that churches need to remain relevant. The pace at which technology moves it's is only going to widen the gap between the rate at which the church adopts tech vs. business. I mean, kids don't even read email these days, yet some adults at church are just learning email. Kids only respond to text messages. If you're not reaching kids where they are, we're gonna risk not be relevant to them. I think the church needs to catch up and I think the marketplace needs to help 'em :).

Yea, these are the numbers that encourage online web tools to keep their prices affordable. :). Thanks for your comments today Mike!

I like it Greg!

In order to collaborate, I can think of a few tools :). But I think the challenge is getting organized and proposing a process about it. In other words, it's got to be something that's important to people...collaborating on church tech that is.

Good stuff.

Cool. Yea, "easy to implement" is relative I guess. When you're church is blessed with good tech peole on staff sometimes the things that were once challenging to get off the ground become easy. That being said, with the myriad of online web tools available it certainly is imperative that getting started with them is fairly straightforwad. The key, as many have said before me, is to have plan!

Seems logical Kevin. Good point.

Yea, we discussed that too...that perhaps God wants us to wait on Him for the movements not technology.
