To Put It Out There
I was talking with a few frineds in Philly last night and some things came out of the conversation that hit home, and in many ways just encouraged me towards what MMM does and where MMM is going.
The first thing talked about that made my eyes jump some was the the one friend was speaking about how she is looking to develop a website for her church, but is totally foreign to concepts such as "hosting," "databases," and "domains." Not that I can blame her any. I am a website designer and many times wonder how I ever came into understanding those and other things. But as we talked, I saw more of the reason for a resource like MMM that would touch on these and other concepts that make sense to those of us into it, but not always so much to those outside of it who have facilities in other areas of the Body.
The other friend I spoke with last night talked about moving from his BlackBerry to a normal phone. He bought is so that he could be more on top of what he does here and there (he is a social worker). But the problem was that the technical support was too technical. The persons who sold him the device did not take the time to tell him about how it would work best for him. Again, an area where MMM was develped to help people out who want to use this technology to improve the lives of others, but things can be a hurdle.
That is why we speak so much about training and equipping as being a part of the mission of MMM. Its not that mobile technology will work for everyone, it won't. But for those who have a definite need, and can work within the constrains of region, costs, or the Internet, there is most definitely some friut that MMM cna help you reach.
So do you see something that MMM could talk about that would benefit you more. Use our contact form and let us know. Or, if you are one, or know one that would benefit from one-on-one training, use the contact form to let us know that too. Believe it or not, the MMM team is located all over the US and we'd just love to develop a relationship with you or your congreation so that you get the most out of mobile tech in order to be not just productive, but a carrier of the Gospel to every corner of your world.
