“Theoblogical” reflection is to look

“Theoblogical” reflection is to look at the ways that blogging helps us do theology.  The most basic thng it brings to the discussion is to present a way of looking at the world,  which is key to talking theology in many circles.  With the net,   we all have access to education, information,  and opinions.  This was, in the early days of the Church,  a role of the pastor.  To inform,  comment, and theologize.  Today,  the pastor has more of a “host” and “provocateur” of conversation.   While they may offer their opinion,  and many look to them for such opinion,  it is becoming less and less “informative” (since most of the news is already known) and more “perspective” and “prodding” for the congregation to engage in the process of theology in the context of community.
