So my church hasn't done this yet, but it intrigues me, and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it.
What would it look like to have a screen projected in the worship space that showed a live twitter feed of what people were saying or commenting about the service?
Cons are easy to figure out, right? It's distracting, anyone can say anything they want, it would be messy and take focus off of the music, preaching, etc.
But what if those things are ok? Is it ok to be distracted by conversation about what's happening? Is the sanctity of of the spoken word by the preacher disturbed by comments or questions from the congregation?
Is preaching only allowed to be a monologue?
Is it ok for it to be messy and for the comments of the unsaved and unchurched and the uninformed to be visible? Does visible brokenness take away from or enhance worship?
I'm not saying this is the greatest idea ever, but maybe one to think about. What do you think? Would a live twitter feed during a service be a good or bad thing?
