MissionalTube

One of the keys to innovation is beginning to build a network around a new idea. The seeds of innovation can be developed individually, but it is in community that they thrive.

So many times we have this view of the inventor back in the garage who comes out with this incredible new concept. Sure that does happen, but it is much more likely that a person will come up with an idea and then shop it around to their peers.

As this interaction happens, the idea is tested, debated, improved and modified. Out of this process a successful prototype can emerge that is well rounded and grounded in reality.

So lets get practical. I work with HCJB Global and we are beginning to test the use of YouTube.com as a tool to share what God is doing in missions. I am not alone - Jews for Jesus, SIM, World Venture and a few others are also doing this.

So I am forming a YouTube Group called MissionalTube in order to share and discuss how this new social network can be harnessed to share about missions.

Do you want to join - send me a note at our site www.youtube.com/hcjbglobal.
