No problem. I just get frustrated when folks won't do the homework to get real figures, or will choose to sensationalize them for their own gain.

I was recently taking a peek at some local churches web sites and came across one stating that the service on Sunday was the "starting point" of the conversation, not the end point. And I found that very interesting. I think the point made by Chris is dead on, services aren't really for this type of communication. However, rolling this into small groups or a coffee house time of discussion would be a great way to enhance the conversation.

I think a number of people feel like they aren't able to be a part of the discussion at their church, and incorporating these ideas not only in podcasts, but in other ways is likely a great way to really connect people and help them feel like a true part of the conversation and community.

I just came across this article that works through some of the items in much greater detail. http://www.rockcheetah.com/blog/social-media/soci...
