Looking back over the past years, I came across this posting and sketchnote from the 2011 GCIA Conference. There really was a lot of information passed during that time – much, much more than could be gathered by one person or a drawing. But, I can see in that drawing some of the things I thought about throughout. Of some of those points that I can remember clearly in seeing this again:
- There was a urgency to not miss the boat any more than sensed when it came to digital ministry efforts
- There was an openness to conversing across denominational and organizational lines
- While it was opined, there was little anyone could really solve in that space towards non-English content (almost like English stunted the activity we could do outside that context)
- Folks loved their mobile apps
- Creativity is seen as a smaller activity than production (organizationally)
- Mobile can be understood by talking, but better known by living
Just things that came to mind. I enjoyed that time, and perhaps will get to connect with those from that GCIA meeting in a conference this year.
