If you haven’t found Frank Barnako’s blog on blogging and podcasting, either through CBS Marketwatch or his own site, its worth checking out. One of his recent articles is on the discovery of the power of podcasting by churches. Using the term “Godcasting”, Barnako states that searches for religious podcasts are up by 355%. Too bad most churches are just applying modern mindsets to the new technology – information delivery of sermons, classes you can’t attend, inspirational speaking. I don’t think most Christians understand the power of podcasting as authentic community because they don’t get postmodern community (See my podcast #2 on Extreme Makeover: Home Edition as community).
The spiritual journey is going on, going digital, and some people are starting to notice. Cool.
Check out Frank’s site and learn how the mainstream is coming to deal with podcasting.
