Calling all SF Bay Area church technology geeks, seriously

in
Following is a post by a technology-minded pastor of a church in SF. I’ve been reading his blog for a year or so. He’d like to put together a technology/church unconference this fall. Seriously, I think this will be very cool…. Are you interested? I am.

IpodCALLING ALL TECHNO CHURCH GEEKS!!!!!

Yes, you heard me correctly.  Tired of hiding in the shadows, ashamed of your technological acuity and ready to bust out your Jesus-loving techno self?!?!?

Still not sure . . . if you can answer any of the following questions in the affirmative, maybe you should think about joining some of us for a church and technology gathering this Fall in the lovely San Francisco Bay Area.

  1. You love technology
  2. You love Jesus
  3. You think Jesus would indeed be a blogger
  4. You think Jesus would have a Myspace, Facebook, LinkedIn or Mashable profile AND would be your friend ;-)
  5. The church has missed some major opportunities to integrate the culture of technology in order to grow in body and spirit
  6. You played Dungeons and Dragons
  7. You live in or need a good excuse to visit the San Francisco Bay Area in the Fall.

About all the thought I have given this is that it will be like an Unconference, Barcamp or Open Space Technology gathering focused around the general topic of the church and technology.  Probably October or November to be held at Mission Bay Community Church here in SF. 

That is about all the guidance I will give, other than helping to organize anyone who might wish to help with arrangements - hint hint hint - and making sure the church is open, this will be blissful chaos and discovery.

If you are interested please let us know your  availability HERE.  When we get about 15-30 people who are interested, we'll set a date and come up with the rules of engagement.

More info?

Can you include a pointer to his blog? I’m interested in reading it, for sure. Also.. if anyone has attended any of the listed conferences, can you give a quick overview of what’s involved, or what might be involved?

Thanks!

I'm interested

I went on and posted my availability… I’m not enough of a geek yet… but I KNOW the tool Al Gore started called the “inter- net” can be used more! I’m there.
