SUMMARY:Theology After Google
DESCRIPTION:View the complete schedule »\n\nWe invite you to join us 
 March 10-12, 2010 in Claremont, Calif., for a first-of-its-kind nation
 al conference, “Theology After Google.” Thanks to a generous grant
  from the Ford Foundation, we are able to keep registration costs low.
 \n\nWho is coming?\nTony Jones, Spencer Burke, John Franke, Helene Sle
 ssarev-Jamir, Adam Walker Cleveland, Bob Cornwall, Dwight Friesen, Jon
  Irvine, Glen Stassen, Philip Clayton, Tripp Fuller, Ryan Parker, Bruc
 e Epperly, Barry Taylor, Steve Knight, and others.\n\nWhy “theology 
 after Google”?\nProgressive Christian theologians have some vitally 
 important things to say, things that both the church and society despe
 rately need to hear. The trouble is, we tend to deliver our message us
 ing technologies that date back to Gutenberg: books, academic articles
 , sermons, and so forth. We aren't making effective use of the new tec
 hnologies, social media, and social networking. When it comes to effec
 tive communication of message, the Religious Right is running circles 
 around us.\n\nHence the urgent need for a conference to empower pastor
 s, laypeople, and the up-and-coming theologians of the next generation
  to do “theology after Google,” theology for a Google-shaped world
 . Thanks to the Ford funding, we’ve been able to assemble a stellar 
 team of cultural creatives and experts in the new modes of communicati
 on. We are also inviting a selection of senior theologians, and well a
 s some of the younger theologians (call them “theobloggers”) whose
  use of the new media (blogging, podcasts, YouTube posts) is already e
 arning them large followings and high levels of influence. For two and
  a half days, in workshops and in hands-on sessions, in lectures and o
 ver drinks, these leading figures will be at your disposal to teach yo
 u everything they know.\n\nSchedule:\n\n\"Theology After Google\" (TAG
 ) will kick off with drinks and dinner on Wednesday, March 10, and wil
 l end with a closing celebration on Friday evening, March 12th.\n\nVie
