So I’m walking out of Ebenezers and I bump into a Swiss doctor who just happens to be in DC this week. She says I’m her “jogging buddy.” She downloads our podcast every week. Then she tells me that she prints out my message transcripts and sends them to someone who is in prison in Australia. Very random. Very cool.

I know I say this all the time but can I say it again? If it’s worth preaching it’s worth podcasting. We need to redeem technology and use it for God’s purposes.

In case you care, we’ve starting thinking about NCC in new terms. Our immediate family are the folks who attend services on the weekend. Our extended family are podcast listeners, webcast watchers, and blog readers. Because of our demography and geography, we have huge turnover. Based on our annual surveys, it’s more than 40% per year. The long and short of it is this: we have thousands of NCCers all over the world. We don’t view them as ex-NCCers. We view them as extended family. And technology is one way we stay connected.

I love technology!
