The topics:
Topic 1: In what ways has your use of social media enhanced your spiritual life?
Topic 2: If you tweet prayers, how do you connect best with other pray-ers?
Topic 3: How can the church use social media to deepen spiritual life?
Topic 3a: Are the "quote a Bible verse" tweets useful/meaningful/effective?
Topic 4: Coolest use you have seen of social media to deepen spiritual life?
Quick Topic 5: What one thing can the church/others do to help "your" spiritual life via social media?
