I recently finished a project for West Salem Foursquare Church in Salem, OR (my home church). It was awesome working with the lead pastor and the youth pastor to pull this site together.
I was recently asked by Cynthia Ware from the Center for Church Communications to be a part of a small group of creative individuals across the country to help support and promote ministry comm professionals. I am excited about this opportunity to help those who are spreading the gospel through creative means.
Many companies (churches and ministries included) are anxious to build a great website, but have not thought about strategy. They have grandiose ideas about what their website will look like, but they have not thought about the purpose behind the website.
A few weeks ago I wrote about The Idea Camp. The event took place this past weekend, and it was incredible. I met tons of amazing people from all over the US. I was inspired to think in fresh new ways, but more importantly to act on those ideas. As one speaker said, “Ideas are cheap”.
I wanted to share a few quotes/ideas that I took away from The Idea Camp. They are random and all over the place. I would like to give attribution where due, but some of these were just quick notes I wrote down when they struck me.
I saw some buzz on Twitter in the last couple months about something called The Idea Camp. I looked into it, and was very excited to find out what it is. The Idea Camp is a place to bring ideas, listen to ideas, and start talking about ways to see them become reality. The conference is participant-driven (versus big-name speaker driven) and follows the unconference format.
