I have spent the day getting WordPress updated and I’m still doing some work to launch a new and renewed Wired Jesus in the next week or two. Over the summer I have been working to plan some changes and get some Mac training to be able to upgrade the website and do more both with the blogging and podcasting. I’m looking to arrange some interviews both with emergent leaders but also with pastors in some very cool congregations and settings. Once I work out the tech with Skype and Garageband with a few lessons at the Apple store, I’ll be good to go.
I have also been receiving requests over the past year to take Wired Jesus “on the road” and work with congregations interested in understanding postmodern ministry, integrating visual media as a mission language, and coaching on how to do experiential worship. With my pastoring duties, to be able to do that is going to take a little prep to do that kind of paid consulting even here locally. A project for coming months but if you are a church leader and interested in having Wired Jesus come to you live, let me know.
Lastly, because I know participants from the Creative Ministry Gathering check this web site also, yes, we have tentative dates for the Gathering set and I’m working with the planning team to get the theme details for the event settled by the end of the month. If you have suggestions or questions, let me know. However, we do have a set date with the Holiday Inn on International Drive in Orlando for January 21-23 (Monday night-Wednesday night) and are looking at a special clergy spouse getaway deal/event for the 18-20. More to come both here and at Transforming Church in the next couple of weeks.
Wired Jesus is still here, somewhat under the radar at the moment, but ready to move ahead with the kind of podcasts you’ve enjoyed but also some new directions and content as well. Hang in there.
