This morning some of the A/V folks were getting ready for Sunday services and the bulb failed on our video projector. We have been having discussions on how we can have church without video!
I mean, has anyone ever actually tried it? Using hymnals and such?
How will I preach without PowerPoint? Will I be able to keep people's attention? Maybe I should go find the overhead projector and make up some transparencies?
Someone suggested I draw up some posters to use.
How did they get by in the old days?
--
Well, I guess we will give it a try -- but who knows how it will go?
--
Only one serious word here -- for all you who will say, "You should have a spare" -- we purposely opted out of that. The bulb costs around $400 -- it doesn't seem wise to spend $400 on a spare when the projector could die or when the cost of projectors might drop to the point that it would make more sense to just buy a new one.
