Last Friday I watched Erwin McManus speak to 700 people at the Leadership Forum at Southeastern University.
He started to read from the Bible. However, I did not see a Bible on the table he was using.
I then noticed a Blackberry (I think it was. Maybe an iPHONE.) in his hand. He was reading the Bible from an app on his hand-held device.
I must admit, I have done this several times. (I even did this for an entire sermon once.) People looked at me weird. However, I wonder if we will see this increase in the coming years. Tools like YouVersion makes this possible.
I did a non-scientific poll on Sunday before I started to speak. I was surprised to see how many read the Bible on their hand-help devices. This group was completely Gen Y.
Are you okay with this? Should it matter?
