Live blog part 3
Our break is over. Good coffee, a great fruit salad, and still only a little slushy snow outside.
The conversation is turning to crowd sourcing. Kathryn Reklis from Fordham University brought it up. It is an interesting topic, especially from an Anabaptist perspective. What would it look like to crowd source a sermon using pastor's puddle?
Jason Byassee noted that the panelists started using social media, then stepped back and did theological reflection. This is a theological method.
Jim Rice of Sojourners magazine observed that there is still a broadcast aspect to new media. This blog, for example, has a broadcast element.
Eugene Cho observes that people do not just show up at his church, but learn about it, usually online.
Tony Lee emphasizes the importance of getting our message out. I wonder about the Mennonite Hour and other "old media" efforts (or CMC on WGCS) and their effectiveness in connecting with people outside our tradition. Marty Troyer in Houston is using a blog to reach beyond the usual suspects.
Eugene Cho reminds us that boundaries are important. This is a big one for all of us.
Lunch!
