7 Twitter Sources for Church News and Commentary

Congratulations to everyone who got started on Twitter last week and to all who are already using Twitter for ministry. The point of last week’s post was that Twitter is an excellent source of real time information in short, concise doses with links to articles and websites with the details.  If you follow the right tweeters, you will be up to date in whatever area you are interested in, including news and commentary about our Church and our faith. This week I am sharing with you the people/organizations that I follow on Twitter to keep up with the latest news in the Church. There are many more, but these are my top 7 Twitter sources for Church news and commentary.

FYI: All of the Twitter links below are live, that is, if you want to follow, reply, retweet any of them, you can do so directly from this blog.
