Embracing Technology to talk Theology

This experience is bitter and sweet. I am excited that I have started Public Theology with Dr. Susan Thistlewaite! But I am not comfortable with blogging and not happy about Twitter. But a Theologian has to do what a Theologian has to do!

I must confess that I just started texting, I just did not want to do it. I takes a lot of time to type and I am not a good speller. I did not want to embrace that skill set. But I did.

I must confess that I am now OK with the millions on Facebook who are not using it for school purposes. I did not want to embrace the social networking. But I did.

I must confess that when Dr. T told us to Tweet. I just did not want to embrace that technology. I know this is weird coming from a Technologist but I did not want to talk this way! But it is what it is! I'm doing it!

I am embracing my call no matter what form of media I have to use. Facebook, Twitter, Blogging bring it!!!

Jesus help me take Theology to a whole new level with Technology to glorify your name!

  1. Do you have to tweet the entire post, or is the tweeting part separate? I recommend you check out the way some people are doing twitturgy: http://www.churchsolutionsmag.com/articles/twitturgy-a-liturgy-in-140-characters.html. There's a virtual abbey that posts regular twitturgies. The moderator of the PCUSA twitters constantly. Next time I find his tweet name I'll send it your way in case you want to follow him.
