Where are the “theological developers†in the church culture? This is not to say that any particular developer who is chosen by the Fellowship Network is not interested or passionate about theology of church, but can’t we be a bit more focused on “passions†for the church as much if not more so than we are about Rails or MVC proficiency?
We’re hiring talented developers — Are you one of them?
Developer Extraordinaire
You are passionate about your work, and are opinionated about what it means to write good code. You are comfortable in a number of languages, particularly C# and HTML5. You make use of development frameworks, but can wield them as tools, not use them as a crutch.
You’re familiar with various platforms, such as IIS and Apache, and are obsessed with tweaking applications to yield the most performance. You have dabbled in PHP, .NET MVC, or Rails.
I believe that to employ one’s gifts for the work of the church, one might also look at a mix of Mission and Developer Cred. I will have much more on this quite often, as this issue is quite front and center for me now. Is there a place for theological reflection/envisioning alongside of the tools that help us to be present in this social networking world?
