Blogging Clergy
This Washington Post article describes clergy who blog, the difference between the approaches/content of their blogs versus their sermons/homilies, etc. A couple of Catholic parish-priest bloggers appear in the story, but overall the evangelical and "emergent" pastors are more cyber-savvy:
Several churchgoers said blogs are a fairly natural fit at "new paradigm" churches such as History Church and National Community Church, where one of the 12 core values is "everything is an experiment" and 75 percent of the 900 members are single and in their twenties. Several Catholic and mainline Protestant ministers said their blogs do not blend in as seamlessly within their more traditional congregations.
