Communication Now!

Again, I am choosing to talk about technology and the way it has impacted our world. I recently read some articles produced by my church explaining the different ways technology has changed our church. The thing that really caught my attention was just the way that communication has changed so drastically. We went from a world where everyone would get information by word of mouth, to the printed word, to radio, to television, and now to the internet. It is amazing to see the changes in communication and how great it is that we can have information in front of us at any moment. Whether it is just the weather, or a late breaking story that Heath Ledger died, the thing is that we can get this information quickly and easily. As for my church, this way of communication has become a great resource and makes it easy for people in different corners of the world to know what the leaders of the church are saying. Sometimes, especially when I think back to how things were before, I think that we just take for granted that we are able to know anything quickly because we have had such great technology for most of our recent lives. It really has had an impact on every aspect of our communication.
