Episode #27 - New Media for Missions -Pt2

CalCast — Mon, 17 Mar 2008 00:16:44 GMT

The exciting conclusion of our discussion on "New Media" and its potential use for 21st century missions. The Internet, and more importantly Web 2.0 applications, are rapidly changing the way we do business, build relationships, and entertain ourselves. But often we neglect to use these tremendous gifts as effective tools to enhance our personal witness to the nations. With rapidly increasing ties between countries and cultures, we would be guilty of apathy or indifference if we didn't take a serious look at how these new technologies might be used to reach the unreached peoples of the world. These issues and more are debated during this two part electrifying discussion by my friends and host, Chris and Rodney. Two very active podcasters and new media specialists. Stay subscribed!
