[Presentation] From the Toilet to the Pulpit (CPCC/The Geek Fest)

Around this point, barring anything having happened to me while on the road in the past 24 hours, we’re almost starting with a presentation titled From the Toilet to the Pulpit at The Geek Fest (at Central Piedmont Community College, Charlotte, NC, USA).

You might be interested in following along with the presentation, and as our usual methods, you can view the slide deck here.

For those of you keeping up with our previous talks, there’s some repeat of some of the items in this deck. For the offline discussion, things are more tuned towards the topic title. Do feel free to offer comments and feedback via Twitter (put @mobileminmag in your comments so that we can easily/quickly see it).

The Bible in a Technological Age by Bobby Gruenwald

Coming off an extended holiday weekend (for those of us in the USA), its great to have a video like this one from Bobby Gruenwald (LifeChurch.TV) at Q to help reset our perceptions towards the interesection of faith and technology and what our response to life and environment (context) can look around it.

Note: I’ll embed this in when I’m able to get the direct link to the video; Q doesn’t give me a direct URL to embed here.

One Day Conference: How Tech Shapes Faith (Feb 8th)

Via The Digital Sanctuary:

Dallas Theological Seminary’s Center for Christian Leadership is hosting Shane Hipps, author of Flickering Pixels (my review), for a one day conference in Dallas called The Electronic Gospel: How Technology Shapes Our Faith on February 8th, 2010… John Dyer will lead one on controlling technology in our daily lives, Scott McClellan of Collide Magazine will lead a session on social media, and Bill Buchanan of Irving Bible Church will lead one on technology in the worship service.

This looks like a great conference. Don’t see MMM going as there’s a scheduling conflict (and poor planning on my part), but we will try and get some coverage of it from various vantage points.
