Mid-Day Thoughts
This is a bit more than what I normally post here, but as I am chatting to LJ, I see something that should be at least mentioned, and if there is discussion can follow towards actions, then it does. Here is the text transcript:
...reading articles about how Google and MS are trying to assume aspects of each other for wining the data battle , Adobe readying the Apollo web/offline interface environment, and then Zune/Nintendo DS-like working of tech... there is much to be shared, and at the cresting point, someone big wont like it, and many people small will fight hard [to be on equal ground to receive and use it]
but then we have a church of IT-know-nothings (not all, speaking of casual users) who will do nothing more than flow the wave instead of create a new river that speaks/acts life
listening to this devo's song, reading the devo and reflecting on this makes me feel that we aren't fighting in this arena, working yes, but not standing/fighting [even online those things that speak towards Christ's heart of sharing the love of God with everyone regardless of social, physical, spiritual condition]
Do we contend for the Gospel at the sake of making sure that the least of them have the ability to meet Christ just as the most of them...[or do we exist in our spaces, content with just a surface knowledge of the issues and the ability but no heart to go out and change something]
To be honest, I don't expect anyone to understand this completely, let alone respond; but to say that my heart has been piqued lately with how tech is relevant to the cause of Christ and why we are/aren't moving does keep me thinking of how to be more effective, with and without MMM.
