National church tech association???

Jim Walton has some great ideas and suggestions on his post anyone interested? A quote from his post on some of things the organization could cover:

  • technical writings on a variety of topics, contributed by many of us
  • a cool logo that members could display on their own sites, blogs and email sig, ‘proud member of the ultra cool church tech club’ or whatever
  • a forum with a variety of moderators
  • a way to connect churches needing tech expertise with ministry minded, technical consultants who are willing and available in their area, either on a volunteer or contract basis
  • provide churches without the resources to have expertise in-house, a resource to find answers and direction on technical issues

While I definetly am not an expert I certainly am passionate about technology and its effect on the church and the benefits it can have in ministry. I look forward to learning more, sharing, and being involved with others in this area. I think it’s important that though we may be at different church buildings we are all part of the same church and our competion is not with the church but the world. If we can go about our daily lives with this thinking and passion we can all do great things as we work together.

    Awesome! Thanks for the post and for spreading the word. I may contact you, Derek, as this thing takes shape for some input. I’m not sure yet what this will end up looking like but it’s in God’s hands and He will make it be what it needs to be.
