Tweeting Good Friday
Posted By: Zach Hoag
Most of you dwellers know this, but I am fond of Twitter.
Really fond of it.
[Subliminal message: Get an account now.]
I much prefer it over Facebook, which is fast becoming Mombook and is a cluttered mess of irrlelevant information much of the time; Twitter, on the other hand, is lightning-fast, highly relevant and taggable, and generally super informative. It's proclamation aggregation instead of (oft-inane) conversation.
Don't worry, not writing off Facebook, just yet - just stating the preference. To put it simply, I have never been yelled at on Twitter - on Facebook, happens kinda frequently.
I'm writing this on Holy Saturday as I work on the sermon for tomorrow. This whole week has been an awesome time of reflection and contemplation; in fact, I've felt strongly that this week has been an important one for the future of our community (of communities) - and there's been all of the intensity, and even difficulty, associated with something important.
To put it simply, Holy Week is huge, and it has been both a beautiful and serious time for me thus far.
Last night, though, was the first taste of the fruit of this week's labors: the Good Friday gathering. I cannot express how profoundly impacted I was by that hour, by Trevor's poetic account of the Passion, by Josh's ongoing musical genius, by Grant's unbelievable contemplation mix, by all of our wonderful readers, and, all told, by this fresh experience of the death of our King.
By the way, you can grab the audio from last night on the Sermon page, or just subscribe to the feed.
So, Twitter. I found myself tweeting (and sometimes 'booking) Good Friday thoughts all week; and others were doing the same thing. So here are some Good Friday tweets to meditate on this Holy Saturday as we await celebration tomorrow:
