Technology For the Masses: Churches Going Hi-Tech

[wraggster]

More and more, reports the Chicago Tribune, churches are embracing the use of tablets and smartphones during services (http://www.chicagotribune.com/business/ct-biz-0408-ipads-church-20120408,0,3415934,full.story). At Trinity United Church of Christ on Chicago's South Side, the Rev. Otis Moss III preaches from his iPad. 'There was a time in the church when the Gutenberg Bible was introduced,' notes early adopter Moss. 'There was a severe concern among ministers who were afraid the printed page would be such a distraction if you put it in the hands of people in worship.' Tech-savvy churchgoers are also on board. 'In the service, when they say to pull out Bibles, I pull that phone out,' Ted Allen Miller said of using his Android smartphone at Willow Creek Community Church.
