@MeredithGould Exactly. I made a sweet Prezi that I want to turn into a video and link from my business card, so I'm biased... #ChSocM

The topics:
T1 First, to test the waters. On general principle, social media during worship: Yea or Nay? Why?
T2 What is the worst thing about social media / technology during worship?
T3 What is the best thing about social media in worship?
T4  Most creative use that you have seen of social media & technology during worship?
T5  Do you have examples of congregations/leaders who are pushing the envelope in terms of social media & worship?
For fun: ChSocM bragging.
