Sheryl Fancher likes to tell social media nightmare stories that make ministers cringe.
Like the one about a pastor who posted derogatory remarks about church members on his Facebook page without realizing his account was set to public.
Ouch….

I find this story somewhat lacking in perspective, as if “the Church” in its online media usage and application is one monochrome body that only responds to the internet in one way. Some churches are very savvy with promoting themselves on the internet with digital media, etc. Others are still stuck somewhere in 1993 with parishes that don’t even have a website. I think the Church in this respect is not that unlike “Business” in that sense. There are businesses that market on the internet to great success and other businesses that have little to no online presence at all.
