A Twitter Milestone

Posted on May 3, 2011 Written by Mark McIntyre 3 Comments

I’m relatively new to Twitter, but I did just passed a milestone. This morning I sent out my 1,000th Tweet:

RT @artiedavis: Giving away 10-Copies! of @scottwilliams new book: Diversity here> http://ow.ly/4LYAI. Just RT this, and leave comment.

In the grand scheme of things, this is not a huge accomplishment. But I do believe that social media are going to be around for a while and the Church needs to employ them to communicate the good news of Jesus Christ.

Happy Tweeting! SDG

Crowds and compassion

While we might view a crowd as an inconvenience, Jesus viewed the crowd as an opportunity to meet their physical and spiritual needs. There is much we can learn from Jesus’ feeding of the 4,000 as recorded in Mark 8.

The accusation of lying – what politics reveals about our need for truth
