Sometimes it's worth stating the obvious. LifeChurch.tv (Outreach Magazine's winner in the '07 innovation poll) is more than serious about using new media technologies to invade cyberspace with Christianity. Whether they're freely giving away 'open source' style resources through their LifeChurch.tv/Open site or pioneering an online Internet campus, these over-the-top, tech-savvy pastors and their team continue to take online church from beta to gold.
The multi-site ministry based out of Edmond, Oklahoma (and yes, I originally attended MetroChurch in the early 80's before it was LifeChurch) has conquered every obstacle they've encountered. Undaunted by the uncharted nature of virtual worlds, their newest Web 2.0 accomplishment is a Second Life campus where you can join and teleport yourself into virtual reality church.
Terry Storch, co-author of The Blogging Church, blogged recently that a revamped website for LifeChurch may be released soon. If you want to try to stay informed on their newest innovations, you can check out his blog or the Swerve blog co-authored by pastors Craig Groeschel or Bobby Gruenewald.
- Make that new site up today! At least I got a peak of it checking my links out.
