I found this blog with some great articles on media and its use in churches. For example, here’s the intro from a recent article I enjoyed.

Ten Dangers of Advertising -> 

Advertising can be one of the most powerful media tools at a church’s disposal. There are plenty of reasons why your church should be using advertising. However, there are also some dangers about advertising. If done the wrong way, Advertising can actually harm your identity. Treat advertising like you would treat visitor. Follow these simple instructions to avoid doing anything that would give people a wrong impression of your ministry. …

Save Marriage Petition

Sign the petition –>

To the delegates of the 2011 Labor National Conference:
Marriage is the union of one man and one woman, voluntarily entered into for life.

It is an institution vital to the well-being of all of society. In particular it confirms the importance of motherhood and fatherhood and seeks to protect children’s biological identity.

It has a meaning that we hold deeply for its cultural, religious and social significance.

We urge you not to redefine marriage in your party platform to admit relationships to which it does not naturally or historically apply.

Bible Cross References, ‘Bible Social Network’, and Distribution of people and places

Chris Harrison, of Carnegie Mellon University, and Christopher Romhild,
of Nordelbische Evangelisch-Lutherische Kirche in Germany, have created a
graphic that shows 63,779 cross-references between different portions
of the Bible. The colored lines are the cross-references. The white bars
at the bottom represent the number of verses in each individual chapter
of the Bible; the long white bar at bottom center would be Psalm 119,
which has 176 verses.

The original web page for this work is at http://www.chrisharrison.net/index.php/Visualizations/BibleViz,  and you can see a zoomable version of the graphic at http://gigapan.org/gigapans/5872/.

Also on his project page is a really interesting ‘Bible Social Network’ map, and another interesting graphic about the distribution of Biblical people and places which shows the entire Bible printed on a sheet of paper .  You can also download high-res versions from his site – some are over 100Mb in size!

The Lord is my Shepherd

This time lapse reminds me of the 23rd Psalm

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me. Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over. Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.

I bought a copy of Glo Bible a few years back from Koorong as it has a heap of maps and a Bible time line and some quite good virtual tours through of historical Bible sites.  They’ve now released a lite version for iPhone/iPad and windows/mac which has all the same maps/photos and virtual tours which load from their website.  Well worth a look now it’s free.

Our Daily Bread iPhone/iPad

Our Daily Bread is available on the iPhone/iPad for 99c.  It doesn’t really contain anything earthshattering in terms of content and basically just reads their web site at this stage and links to Biblegateway.com.   The iPhone version makes it easy to read but the iPad version is a bit pointless as their website renders fine in the browser.  Hopefully later updates contain more content.  Still the 99c goes towards supporting their ministry.

Bible.Is Mobile Bible Software

Without trying to start a debate about whether Apple is good or bad, I just wanted to post a couple of useful mobile (iPhone / iPad) apps that I use. Some of them are available on that other operating system Android. ;)

  • Bible.Is is a free app that lets you read or listen to the Bible on the go. It has various versions and includes a both a standard and ‘dramatic’ KJV audio version. Just be aware that it streams the audio off the website so you don’t get surprised by a large 3G data bill. Wireless works as well of course.
  • They also have Android and a web site version as well.

17 Oct :: Edit – the latest version has the option to download all the audio to the local device so you can listen offline now.
