I’ve been doing searches for things that might turn up some serindipitous, hit-the-jackpot, miraculous, this-is-it, burning bush kind of job. Actually, anything web development related with some relationship to Church bodies. As usual, there’s not much that turns up. I take a gander at the major denominational sites (all except for the SBC/Lifeway, that is) to see if there are any new movements there. As usual, nada. Sigh. What’s gonna be nxt? What am I gonna be stuck doing for the next who-knows-how-long? Why the hell can’t the Church folks see that there is work to be done in communicating online, and I mean COMMUNICATING, as in connecting people , as well as “helping the Church tell its story” (That’s United Methodist Communications’ mission statement, and it a good one, )
I guess I’m not really disillusioned. That usually means operating in “given up” mode. I’m still hopeful. But will I myself live to see it? Sometimes I think it may take that long.
