Innovating an Old Profession
Why not? Lawyers use the internet to connect, keep up-to-date on the newest laws, and do admin work. Doctors use technology to better advance knowledge, administer to patients, and train other personnel. And Soldiers MUST use the latest in technology, techinques, and training to maintain the advantage over the enemy. So why not the Clergyman? Now I (Jeff) will say not say that apps and phones can replace a one-on-one conversations on emotionally deep things or life altering events such as a death of a loved one. However utilizing technology appropriately can help us send inspiration, connect with others for help, and gives us another methond as a UMT to be contacted.
Of course these are my thoughts. What are yours? Let me know in the comments.
