In the book “The World Is Flat” by Thomas L. Friedman, the author describes the choice concerning using technology as; if you are able to use it you must, because your competitors will.   This view is being embraced within the Nazarene denomination, as indicated by the 80% of the respondents, in a recent technology survey, who gave a positive response to “I believe our use of technology makes the ministry of our church more effective”. None of the pastor respondents indicated that technology was a waste; however 8% did indicate that some technology was unnecessary.
