If you want to make a greater impact in the digital world, to get to grips with new media technologies, or simply tweet, pin and post better, then the Christian New Media Conference 2012 is the place to be. It will inspire you, equip you and connect you with like-minded people – whatever your level of experience.
Now in its third year, the conference has moved to a new venue with more space, four new seminar streams and 25 expert speakers ready to give practical help and an opportunity to delve deeper.
Whether you come as an individual, a church, charity or business, you'll be spoilt for choice with 20 breakout sessions available.
The Theme for 2012
The digital revolution has transformed the art of story-telling, bringing it once more to the fore. If you think about it, much of what we are engaged with online is story-telling. We might be telling our story, our church or organisation’s story – but ultimately, as Christians, we are telling God’s story. This will be the theme of the main sessions this year and will have a dedicated seminar stream.
This year's Theology stream will look at the concept of ‘Depixelating God’ – exploring how we as Christians can help make the image of God clearer to people in the online space.
What people said about the 2011 Conference:
"I went to be inspired and meet with people from twitter - I came away excited, encouraged and with lots of new friends."
"Things were presented well in a way that left me well informed and also gave me ideas for ways to practically apply what i've learned."
