THANK YOU! THANK YOU!! THANK YOU!

Sorry for the spaz. Anways, I feel that a lot of the Christian community shies away from technology or has a view the increasing technology is of the devil. No don’t get me wrong, as we delve into knew technologies, there is an increase in our need to understand the ethics that should govern them (cloning, embroynic stem cells, etc…).

But many would rather shy away for fear of falling away, if you know what I mean.

I live in an area outside of DC where it litterally looks like a Monopoly game. People live in big houses, everything has a manufactured feel to it. But there is little to no community at all.

The area I live in head quarters many IT giants and is known as the Sylicon Valley of the East Coast (biggest of note is AOL).

I have seen a trend, areas with higher technology tend to be areas with lower community. Someone told me “In today’s technological environment, you are more likely to talk to someone in South Korea more often than you would your next door neighbor”.

But, it does not have to be this way, it simply means we must be more intentional about building community.

I think you have made some fascinating points. To whom much is given, much is required. We now, more than ever have the chance to have a worldwide voice. I love what you said about using cameras to record healings and such. What a great testimony.

I think back to the Lakeland, FL Revival this summer, there were some things I did not agree with, but none the less, God moved. This was, the first time a revival like this was being broadcast globally, thanks to technology.

To those who would like to call technology evil, I would like to say, it is a neutral tool, it is a God-given invention, which would actually make it good.

Yes, so not only is technology not evil, it is good. Can it be perverted and used wrongly, indeed it has. But Satan cannot create, that power belongs to God, which he has also bestowed in measure upon humanity.

Good stuff!

I know what you mean with your i-phone(lol) I really really love my computer… perhaps to much (=

I really like your new revolution. I have seen a lot of people abuse myspace and facebook, it’s really sad. I’ll defiantly take your two-fold challenge(actually that is one reason why I opened a blog.)

I still need to get your new cd. I’m going to order it sometime this week for sure.
This twitter thing looks like a lot of fun. What a great idea who ever thought of it. I’ll defiantly think about signing up.
Thanks for another feel good inspiring post.

Bye For Now,
Ryan
