An atomized mission field

Rhett Smith links to a thought-provoking post by Chris Brogan, which concerns the sea changes occurring right now in journalism, economics, technology and society itself. Brogan, a new media guru of sorts, asks:

“When Google is the front door, the side door, the hidden key under the mat, the cash register, the finder of everything we ever lost, and everything we wished we’d lost, what comes next? When everyone is a newspaper, a magazine, a TV station, a radio station, a conference, a curator, an educator, a business owner, a shopkeeper, what do we have? When you and I are the creators, the consumers, and the collaborators of this media, what does this mean to us?”

Smith responds …

“In a ‘post media/postmodern world’ are we telling the right story effectively? Are we even telling the story? Is the gospel story more attractive than the other competing stories?”
