Last week John McCain issued a challenge to Barack Obama to participate in a series of debates. The McCain camp hand delivered the letter to the Obama camp, who received it and asked, “why didn’t you just email it?”
Clearly the world of communication has shifted with a generation — not just how we communicate, but how we even think about communication. We communicate across time zones and languages with the expectation of accessing information instantly and receiving immediate responses.
Today I had emails from Singapore, Buenos Aires, Taipei, and New York City – and that was before lunch.
I love it – because when we communicate globally and instantly, we think differently about the world and God’s work in the world.
Starting this blog, I’ll never know who reads it, from our campus in Mississippi to those who care about Christian Higher Education all around the globe. But I pray this new way of connecting will honor God and enrich our lives together.
