When Worlds COLLIDE

Reader Appreciation Week continues!

You don’t have to be a genius to notice that the world around us in changing. The way we interact and communicate is changing and many churches feel stuck. Some churches are still struggling to go online and others are trying to figure out what to do next. The role of media in churches has changed and while we’d agree that the message of the Gospel is timeless, new media brings endless ways to communicate it.

COLLIDE Magazine has become a leading resource for church leaders on how to navigate these changes and talks about the space where media and the church converge.

I’ve been a subscriber since it’s been around and have so appreciated the articles and insights Scott McClellan and his team have put together. Their blog has also been a great resource between issues to keep up and stay connected with what’s going on.

COLLIDE is also a major part of the ECHO Church Media Conference. I’ve attended both years they’ve hosted it (notes from this year here) and am already looking forward to next year! ECHO, in my opinion, is a game-changing conference as it brings together some incredibly talented people who are not only creative and innovative, but who have a heart and passion for God and for the local church. ECHO also creates a great space for you to connect and interact with people and I have benefited from the friendships I’ve made there.

All of that to say, I’m a fan of COLLIDE and ECHO and I want to share the love with you… so I’m going to give away three subscriptions to COLLIDE!

To to enter to win, comment below and if you feel so inclined, include a way I could make this blog better… content, information or things you’d like to hear about.  I’ll randomly select three winners at the end of Reader Appreciation Week (next Tuesday).

[ And don't forget, you've still got 6 days to register for Cultivate with a $15 discount! ]
