Getting on board Technologically

Some years ago I told myself that I needed to get technologically up to speed. I am now further behind. Things are moving very fast. What are the factors that keep us behind?

1. Money- new technology is expensive. For small churches these cost can be huge just to be 10 years behind the times.

2. Education- it takes time to grasp the information. Finding people who know the functions are hard to come by.

3. Using with purpose- the technology is only useful if you know exactly what you are trying to achieve through it. You have to incorporate technology with purpose.

I am convinced that using new technology is strategic and vital. I will continue to pursue this avenue with great interest. I pray I can catch up very soon.

Scrub the launch

NASA is huge. NASA has put a man on the moon. NASA has some of the greatest minds on there payroll. NASA is planning to go back to the moon and beyond. NASA has a huge budget.

Today NASA scrubbed there launch. Sometimes things just don't line up. Sometimes a little oil ring can change the agenda.

Every launch has thousands of man hours behind it and lots of money invested but it has to wait if things are not functioning correctly.

Sometimes our plans have to be scrubbed because somethings are just not right. Do you have enough courage to make the call? Scrub it.

Analog now digital

There have been over 700,000 calls asking what happened after loosing there TV signal. For years there have been announcements that the change was going to happen. The bottom line is, people weren't listening.

This reminds me of the message of the Gospel. People have been hearing that they need to receive Jesus as Lord and Savior. People aren't listening and the day is coming when they will wonder what is happening.

There is still time.
