Tech Workshop (GA)

At the 2007 General Assembly in Fort Worth, TX, Jeff Champeau and I led a packed workshop about technology and the church. We covered a lot of topics and promised that we would put links and resources up on this site. So, here they are. If you think something is missing, feel free to email me (disciplesx@gmail.com).
