Social media tools like Facebook, Twitter, and blogs provide unprecedented opportunities to develop relationships, engage with others, and share ideas. This includes unprecedented opportunities to engage others in spiritual conversations.
Tami Heim and Toni Birdsong have written an excellent book titled @StickyJesus which provides some great insight into how use social media and blogs to share the gospel and impact the world.
Because Internet Evangelism Day is May 15 and because one Internet evangelism day has never been enough for us at Christian Web Trends, we’re making the entire month of May Internet Evangelism Month and will be blogging our way through @StickyJesus chapter by chapter.
To make the experience richer and more insightful for everyone, I’m looking for 15 people who would like to blog through @StickyJesus with me.
We did this with Kem Meyer’s book Less Clutter. Less Noise. earlier this year year and it really enabled the participants to discuss the topics more in depth and learn from one another. So, here are the details:
- Monday, May 2, I’ll kick things off with a blog post introducing the series.
- Then every Wednesday, Friday, and Monday after that a different guest blogger will post about a chapter and lead the discussion.
- I’ve created a sign-up spreadsheet in Google Docs. Post a comment if you’d like to participate. I’ll share the document with you. You enter your info in the spreadsheet for the day/chapter you want to blog & lead the discussion.
- You will have to get your own copy of @StickyJesus, however…
We will give away a copy of @StickyJesus to one person who sign-up by 5 PM Eastern Thursday, April 28.
