Using the "priesthood of all believers" definition of "ministers."

9:22 | T1: I feel called to use all the tools available. In light of advances in tech. and, as always, fewer $ to get things done (cont.) #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:22 nealffischer |
9:22 | Well, T1 could (and may) turn into a blog post. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:22 theologybird |
9:23 | @AEVanSickle Welcome! Have several good friends who are a part of @uppernewyork. Always loved visiting there. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:23 reckshow |
9:23 | T1 Sharing the good news, as in what the National Cathedral is doing for equality. Help dispel some notions about the church. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:23 LuckyCharm333 |
9:23 | @theologybird S'ok, take it 140 characters at a time. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:23 chsocm |

9:24 | T1: definitely called to be where the people are (a.k.a. EVERYWHERE) to connect and take ministry online. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:24 mlstarner |
9:24 | #chsocm T1: I am called to share the good news. Every Holy Week I tweet #HWBreakingNews of the Passion story. I also tweet/fb links to blog. Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:24 GodtheHealerDev |

9:24 | Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:24 sarahcnewberry |
9:24 | t1 #chsocm was very much so hurry up and get with the program a few years back, with little care for strategy. complete 180 today Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:24 sethhinz |
9:24 | T1 No cohesive call discerned, but using it when I can to share ministry experiences. Challenge: not to sound too preachy or smug. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:24 jodymask |
9:25 | Hey guys.. Can't stay on the tweetchat long, but wanted to say hey! Great job Paul! #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:25 scottayres |
9:25 | T1 Encourage and engage in dialogue about what the church really is vs. widespread impressions. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:25 LuckyCharm333 |
9:25 | T1: The call. To energize the mission of Church. To truly create a movement of mission. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:25 iamepiscopalian |
9:25 | @PastorJoelle Good for you! Love it when that happens! #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:25 LuckyCharm333 |
9:25 | T1 I graduated seminary not texting and have found sm helpful and nec to ministry that is spread across miles and miles #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:25 theologybird |
9:25 | Also write saints bios with pictures on FB for synod and they get a wide audience. St. Patrick seen by over 6000 #CHSOCM Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:25 PastorJoelle |
9:25 | Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:25 paulsteinbrueck |
9:25 | @pastordan Welcome Daniel. Great Christian Century article on faith-based activism on gun violence this week. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:25 JimNaught |
9:26 | T1 Used SM for pastoral care in parish, now in diocese with clergy. Also use to organize actions. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:26 RevWeb |
9:26 | meant to say it was good for non-church people to see pastor posting justice issues #CHSOCM Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:26 PastorJoelle |
9:26 | T1: Got into SM mostly for fun, discovered that some folks like talking to people who represent a different kind of Christianity. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:26 pastordan |
9:26 | T1, which does mean 'selling' sm to people who think it's strange/different/'what the kids are doing'/a fad and just doing it anyway #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:26 theologybird |
9:26 | Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:26 sarahcnewberry |
9:26 | @paulsteinbrueck Why don't they? I'm really intrigued by all the resistance/fear. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:26 LuckyCharm333 |
9:27 | RT @PastorJoelle: meant to say it was good for non-church people to see pastor posting justice issues //Amen! #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:27 LuckyCharm333 |
9:27 | Still not too many church members on social media #CHSOCM Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:27 PastorJoelle |
9:27 | T1 cont. A freind of mine calls it Open Source Church. I can see his point, but open source has a wide variety of definitions. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:27 nealffischer |
9:27 | More T1: Originally the call was to see if anyone would follow or like us on here. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:27 iamepiscopalian |
9:28 | T1 Challenge: create and maintain the right "voice" on behalf of the parish. #Chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:28 iamstjohns |
9:28 | T1 Think of "call" not necessarily in the formal sense of a church appointment but a prompting of spirit & discovery of gifts #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:28 chsocm |
9:28 | Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:28 LuckyCharm333 |
9:28 | @LuckyCharm333 It's not resistance or fear, low priority. Communications is 1 staff person's 3rd hat. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:28 paulsteinbrueck |
9:29 | Hi brothers and sisters. Stumbled across you guys tonight. Listening in :) #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:29 aheartforgod |
9:29 | T1: Have to say personally, the connections! Have met and interacted w/ ppl on a new level. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:29 AEVanSickle |
9:29 | I try to post what we regional staff are doing, & get feedback re: ideas & perceptions. Also Post articles, resources & events. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:29 MarleneGil2 |
9:29 | Nothing is wrong with "open source," but it has many meanings. Truly open source means everyone can add to the code and change it. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:29 nealffischer |
9:29 | @paulsteinbrueck Low priority vs. what? Church bulletins, phone tree, newspaper ads, etc.? See where I'm going with this? #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:29 LuckyCharm333 |
9:30 | Topic 2 coming up... #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:30 chsocm |
9:30 | T1 Definitely believed I'm called to help churches/orgs understand & use social media to reach people in a profound way. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:30 deannamingo |
9:30 | @aheartforgod Welcome, glad you found us! :-D #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:30 LuckyCharm333 |
9:30 | Sort of T1 We are all ministers on social media, just as we are in person. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:30 jodymask |
9:31 | Large/mega-churches do sm well - especially incorporating video - to form small communities. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:31 ECCSonline |
9:31 | T2 Thinking about your own engagement w/social media, how are you using it as a tool for discernment? #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:31 chsocm |
9:31 | @nealffischer Oh, I see. Well, open dialogue doesn't equal open source. IMHO, of course. :-) #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:31 LuckyCharm333 |
9:31 | T1 Using SM as a way to share the good news of the diocese, esp. photos. Still searching for ways to have conversations. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:31 HPaukov |
9:31 | #chsocm T1: I also tweet prayers and life experiences. I have 2 Twitter accounts, though only use personal account to stock stars & tv shows Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:31 GodtheHealerDev |
9:31 | T1 I am starting to get back into blogging as a spiritual discipline. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:31 methodistmonk |
9:32 | @LuckyCharm333 Low priority compared with other non-communications tasks in the church. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:32 paulsteinbrueck |
9:32 | T1-often called to build a bridge between different types of communication/groups #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:32 jensandmann |

9:33 | Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:33 JimNaught |
9:33 | T2 discernment definition = seeking God's will, right? #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:33 reckshow |
9:33 | Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:33 NickiinNY |
9:33 | @PastorJoelle Discernment of your gifts, your ministry, your spiritual condition, your work in/for/with the church...like that! Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:33 chsocm |
9:33 | Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:33 LuckyCharm333 |

9:35 | #chsocm T2: The more I share with other & they share with me; the more I steal their ideas. I think it is called open, right? Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:35 GodtheHealerDev |
9:35 | RT @JimNaught: @chsocm T2: Not sure I do use it for discernment. Though it is an excellent way to take pulse. So I guess that counts #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:35 LuckyCharm333 |
9:35 | Helps me listen to pastors with whom I might not usually be in conversation. #chsocm Tuesday March 19, 2013 9:35 MarleneGil2 |

T2: Thinking about your own engagement w/social
media, how could it be used as a tool for discernment?
T2a: T2a Do you find yourself in conversations via social media that help you clarify what you're doing/believing?
Switching into fun gear for T3:
T3: What’s your best social media counsel for @Pontifex and @ABCJustin? @c_of_e? What works? What doesn’t/hasn’t?
