In the ongoing development of one of the most technologically innovative ministries in the United States, LifeChurch.tv, is on the cusp of another set of developmental staff changes within the Digerati Team.  Recently, Sam Soffes, an Apple prodigy who speaks in unknown tongues that can sometimes sound like this “the CSS Meta-Framework provides ports of the best of breed CSS frameworks to Sass and ready to use in your ruby-based web application or stand-alone via a simple command-line interface” has departed LC for new opportunities.

Check out Sam’s blog for a post on the transition.

Sam is brimming with things to do including running his company, Trimonix, plus he’s also in a band as well as develops his own iPhone apps.  Everyone is looking forward to seeing how God will use him next.   If you’d like to contact Sam to work on a free lance project, here’s his card: Sam Soffes.

On another note, well-known developer, blogger & human wikipediaologist, Kent Shaffer, of Church Relevance & AcreScout, is leaving Tulsa for the higher calling.  Yep, the Global Operations Center has a new volunteer as Kent relocates to the Edmond, Oklahoma area to support the efforts of LifeChurch.tv more fully.

Kent, a profound asset to the Body of Christ-at-large, allowed me to interview him on a few of the reasons for making the transition to LifeChurch.tv, Edmond.   Portions of that interview, including the specifics about why Kent chose LifeChurch.tv, will appear here later this week, but in the meantime, I’m reminded of Psalm 110:3 – Your people shall be volunteers in the day of Your power.

Additionally, LifeChurch.tv has narrowed down their search for an Online Connections Pastor to 5 candidates and will fly them in soon for final interviews.  I know some of the candidates and it’s gonna be amazing.

You got any LifeChurch.tv tech news?

Addendum:  Terry Storch has implemented his “Taking Twitter Back” gameplan this week.  Tony Steward has also done a purge. Now what else?

    In addition to all of these exciting developments, the LifeChurch.tv Tech Team, which is responsible for the audio, video, lighting, and satellite technologies at the 14 campus, is in the final stages of the interview process for a Technical Specialist. We hope to add another great person to the team soon.
