According to Telegraph, Chris Joby plans to use Twitter to spread the word of the Lord. His plan is to condense one chapter per day into 140 characters. (This is the maximum number of characters allowed in a Twitter post.) The entire process will take over three years to complete. If everything goes according to plan, Joby will make his last tweet in November 8, 2013. I love this idea. There are tons [...]

Where do you draw your inspiration? How do you stay motivated and enthusiastic? What do you do when “plan A” doesn’t work? Yesterday on Twitter, Fred Hammond shared his thoughts and feelings about inspiration. He talked about the times in his life where he had to draw inspiration from others. Since it is really easy to miss things on Twitter. I thought I would share Fred’s [...]

I have found that new Twitter users are frustrated because they don’t know how to find people to follow. In an effort to help with that, I’ve complied a list of a couple of Twitter directories that will help you identify other Christians to follow on Twitter. Whether you are a pro or novice to Twitter, I’m sure one of these lists will help you. While you’re searching for people [...]

A couple of days ago, Fred Hammond (@RealFredHammond) made some very insightful and interesting comments about Gospel music artists and the state of the Gospel music industry on Twitter.

First, go to http://search.twitter.com or http://www.twitter.com. On these [...]

I’m trying to understand some of the Christians that post updates on social media sites like facebook and Twitter. Hopefully you can help me out. There are many different types of Christians I could target. Today, I want to discuss those Christians that choose to use profanity on social networking sites. I’m trying to understand how someone can boldly profess the name of the Lord on Monday [...]

I’ve been to church services in many different venues. I’ve been to church services in cathedrals, store fronts, stadiums, parks, and college campuses. I’ve also experienced services online, on TV and on radio. I never thought I would be part of a church service on a social network. Well, that is exactly what happened yesterday when I observed Kirk Fraknlin (@kirkfranklin) holding [...]

Like many other people, the first time I created a Twitter account and logged in, I didn’t get it. Twitter gives me the ability to tell people what I am doing. So what? I could do that by updating my status on facebook and all of my friends were on facebook and they weren’t on Twitter. Looking back, I realize how completely ignorant I was back then. Twitter has a value that is completely [...]

Are you a member of a Christian social network? Have you thought about joining one? I know, I know, with MySpace, facebook and Twitter, you’re probably asking yourself, “Do I really need to join another social network?” The answer is probably no.
