Obviously the internet has transformed our society/culture in so many ways. So it's not surprising that it's changing the way we do church. Thanks to Web 2.0, communication and collaboration between Christian leaders has exploded. Online communities grow more and more every year while social networking sites multiply like rabbits. Hundreds of churches offer recorded video messages online. Dozens offer live webcasts. A few also offer a special web interface for building community online complete with online campus pastors.

The advent of streaming online video has now enabled websites like mogulus.com and ustream.tv to connect people in a more realistic way. Last week LifeShare coordinated and connected a couple hundred people online to share their faith with friends and worship together.

It seems like a year ago, very few would have seriously considered "church" online. Now it seems like it's already happening.

What do you think of church online? How can we use the internet to become a more unified body?
