In the remainder of August and possibly into September I plan to post “web ministry” ideas which have crossed my mind at various points. I can’t guarantee they are all original or have never been done, but only that they are not mainstream and common. I imagine there will be an aggregate of church and parachurch focused ideas, as well as ideas that work better for specific audiences within a constituent base. In other words, these ideas won’t be all things to all people and will not fit every ministries’ strategy, style, or culture. I have created a tag/category called “web ministry”, so click on it to see all my postings on the topic. Also, please feel free to comment on the ideas, make suggestions, or generally call me out on something that is too idealistic. Check back soon!

By “well”, I don’t mean that you come off as the best person for the job, or that you were completely impressive, or that you get to the next step. “Well” for me means that both parties are equally candid and transparent… being authentic about what they are looking for, their weaknesses, and what they are doing to improve. Whether an interview becomes a discussion or not is completely based on the interviewer’s approach and mentality. The most healthy/well interviews are those where both parties are secure and confident of their person and mission.
