As I searched the Internet for the latest Web 2.0 offerings, I stumbled upon several new religion related sites. You'll find them here.
As I dug deeper, I found something more than innovative Internet technology. I discovered the idea of Church 2.0... you'll find that here too.

What are people saying
Blogs and Articles about Christianity and Web 2.0 and maybe even Church 2.0
- Church 2.0 -it's more exciting than you think - The Social Software Weblog
- It only makes sense, really. There's everything else 2.0, why wouldn't there be church 2.0?
- TallSkinnyKiwi: Church 2.0
- "Anyway, the ideas of collaboration, participation, distributed power etc, are all very similar to what we are seeing in the newer crop of churches started by media savvy, web-native people and bloggers. That makes me want to suggest...
Church 2.0... a missional ecclesiastic response to a culture influenced by the values of Web 2.0" - Church 2.0
- Church 2.0 -- a documentary about how the evangelical church is adapting and thriving in the 21st century.
- Relentless Grace » Blog Archive » Church 2.0
- "Yes! Web 2.0 is being carried out by new media orgs (Flickr, de.licio.us, Wikipedia, and more) because old media orgs have too much to lose and have lost the ability to remove their institutional/hierarchical lenses. So it will be with Church 2.0. New expressions must raise up outside the control of existing structures."
- Churches still in Web 1.0
- "What is the difference between Web 1.0 and Web 2.0?
The web 1.0 attitude is that the Internet was (and still is in many cases) a platform for attention. People viewed the Internet as a place to promote much like a magazine or newspaper. This is not a necessarily wrong attitude, but it is wrong if it is the only attitude you have. The web is capable of much more than a home page that promotes a Church.
The Web 2.0 attitude revolves around the fact that the Internet can be used to service." - Church Marketing Sucks: What Web 2.0 Means for Your Church
- Multi-part series on web. 2.0 and what it could mean for the church.
"The church is essentially a community, so the ideals of web 2.0 thinking fit nicely in the context of the church. Some say web 2.0 follows the attitude of Jesus. A lot of folks are talking about the idea of Church 2.0. We're definitely not the first or the best to consider web 2.0 and Christianity." - Church 2.0: Church 2.0 explained
- "Church 2.0 is a term applied to the ongoing transition of the the church from a collection of buildings to a full-fledged connected community serving the body of Christ and the world outside of Christ. Ultimately Church 2.0 is expected to replace old traditions for many purposes. This blog will be about exploring those transitions."
