I'm teaching tomorrow morning at a Youth Ministry Training event here in Dallas. (yea no traveling) I'm pretty excited about it because it is allowing me to talk about some things that I really love. Technology and Youth Ministry.
Here's the blurb about what I'm teaching:
A. Ministering to Teens in the Midst of Technology.
The world we grew up in is over. The days of "seeing" friends at school
and not connecting with them until the next morning are no longer.
Teens are now wired and tired. Always online always connected. There
are serious implications for how we do ministry to teenagers who have
access to information 24/7. The online world has filtered offline and
we have to change how we communicate to teens because their brains have
literally been "Rewired" by the technology they are growing up with.
A big shout out to Neal Locke for showing me 2 of the video clips that I'm using at an amazing training he did last month.
I'm available to come and do this presentation at your church too if you would rather see my smiling face. Just click on the "Have Lars Teach" tab above or send me an e-mail.
Thanks for the shout out! Wish I could make your presentation, too. Someday…
