I was honored to be included as a contributing author to the first volume of the Wikiklesia Project

The e-book, called Voices of the Virtual World, will go on sale on July 23rd at Lulu.com and all proceeds go to the Not for Sale Campaign.

From the official description: Voice explores the growing influence of technology on the global Christian church. Voices is scheduled for release in late July 2007. Keep watching this site for more information. In this volume, we hear from a wide range of voices, including bloggers and students, technologists and theologians, entrepreneurs and pastors… from a progressive Episcopalian techno-monk to a leading Mennonite professor… from a tech-savvy mobile missionary to a corporate anthropologist whom Worth Magazine called "one of Wall Street's 25 Smartest Players."

My chapter was titled Social Networking and the Long Tail Church and explored how Web 2.0, and social networking specifically, might change the landscape of Christian media consumption and nip away at the influence of megachurches and celebrity pastors.

Yes, the title includes 2 of my favorite buzzwords (couldn't figure out how to stick user-generated-content in there though)
