Doug Birdsall has launched a blog for the Lausanne Movement. Birdsall writes, “One of the most exciting trends in communications is immediacy. … Today, in mere seconds, I can communicate with you through email, VoIP, SMS — all through an ever-expanding interaction of wireless hotspots, satellites and other means. Conversations and discussions that used to take months now can take just minutes. In fact, if we happen to be online at the same time, we can easily carry on an instant messaging conversation that can flow as easily as if we were sitting together over coffee. …
“Nothing can replace the early breakfast meetings and late night teas with my brothers and sisters across the globe. Yet, my desire is to communicate with you on a more regular basis — not just through an occasional email, telephone call or personal visit. That’s why I’m beginning this blog. I want to share with you who I’m meeting with, what they’re saying and how God is at work in their area. And, I want to hear from you as you respond to this blog — what are you hearing, where are you going, how is God leading you?
“As you post your comments and reactions to this blog, I pray that together we’ll be encouraged, challenged and motivated to a greater love for the Lord, a greater compassion for the world around us and a closer companionship as brothers and sisters in the Lord.”
