A gathering of Christians working to advance the Kingdom through blogging + internet technologies.
I’m headed back to Vegas!
I’m returning to the God Blog Convention, sponsored by Biola University in La Mirada, California. This year’s convention will be held at the Blog World and New Media Expo on September 20 and 21. (Last year’s GodBlogCon was in Vegas, too.)
Why a Christian blogging convention in Vegas? Blog Expo founder Rick Calvert wanted to organize a sort of blogging tradeshow where all kinds of bloggers (faith, tech, business, etc.) could gather and network. He asked the GodBlogCon organizers if they’d consider holding their annual gathering at the Expo, and they were happy to do so.
This is my fourth invitation from the good folks at Biola. In 2005, I led a break-out session on Christian blogging at the first GodBlogCon. In 2006, I spoke on a political blogging panel. Last year, I was a featured speaker, and this year, I’m on a political blogging panel funnyman Scott Ott of ScrappleFace.
Additionally, I’m speaking on a panel at the main convention. Rick asked me to participate in a Q&A discussion on hiring professional bloggers.
The blogging medium has provided yet another opportunity for Christians to share the Gospel and declare the word of God. As long as I’m able, I will continue to do just that.
Question for Christians: Has my blog and other Christian blogs helped you grow in faith?
Question for non-Christians: Has my blog and other Christian blogs helped you understand what we believe and/or given you a different perspective about Christians?
I’m open to suggestions for improvements and blogging topics.
These questions aren’t just discussion starters. I really want to know whether and how my blog has been a help or a hindrance to you.
