“The City” from Mars Hill
Most of the press that comes out of Mars Hill usually has to do with Mark Driscoll calling someone a pansy or a heretic. Too bad, really, because they are up to some really cool stuff but I definitely get the sense that media exposure is not something they are looking to attract or care much about.
One of the things that they have been blogging about for a little while is for a dedicated social network that they are calling “The City”. There have been a series of blog posts over at Codex about The City and what they are hoping it will accomplish. Here are some excerpts:
- The City is an online meeting place for Mars Hill that ties together existing community groups, service groups, and interest/strategically-based affiliations into a social network
- Mars Hill changes frequently and we need to have the agility to keep up with a rapidly changing organization
- At the end of the day we want to enable everyone to know what is the next step in their walk with Jesus
- Last night, The City went Alpha
Very cool. My hat goes off to these guys for having the vision and dedication to pull this off. If you’re interested in this stuff and can handle the geek talk you should check out these posts.
