say what?!? communicating effectively in new media
DESCRIPTION
"What is a modern church?" Transmissions Worship is on a mission to seek out relevant lessons from the contemporary church to share with traditional worship planners. At the same time, we bring out the relevant traditional experiences a modern church can use to do church better, all with the mission of leading people in to a deeper, authentic relationship with Jesus and His church. This presentation was first presented at Connect Fest. This covers some of the basic problems that frustrate users of your website and some excellent examples of websites doing it wrong and doing it really, really right!TRANSCRIPT
