The topics: 
T1: Does your church/org have an annual communications/social media goal-setting, strategic-planning process?
T1a: If you do have a strategic planning process, when does it take place and who is involved?
T2: Drawing from tonight’s pre-reading - http://j.mp/1eBP15k - Do you see an important distinction between outcome & process goals?
T2a: How important do you think it is to set outcome goals for church social media? Why?
T2b: How important do you think it is to set process goals for church social media? Why?
T3: Time to get personal… Have you set #ChSocM goals for 2014 yet? And... If you have #ChSocM goals for 2014 are they outcome goals, process goals or some of both?
T4: What’s 1 action step you’re going to take this week as a result of this discussion? 

This week's chat moderated by Paul Steinbrueck (@paulsteinbrueck)
