This is the Mary Poppins of tech-meets­ministry books: practi­cally perfect in every way. If your church is looking for a way to engage members out­side of Sunday in a per­sonal way and give unchurched folks in your community a glimpse into what you’re all about (and do it all for free), then your church is ready to become a blogging church.

Brian Bailey and Terry Storch explain how a blog can revitalize church communi­cation. The suggestions are insightful, even for those already deep in the blogosphere. But the overall tone is low-tech enough to relax those on their first jaunt into cyber­space. With a step-by-step explanation of how to successfully start and maintain a blog and a great argument for the almost-guaranteed benefits, this handbook of digital outreach is sure to woo even the staunchest “back in the day” diehards.
