I remember when...



I am not that old. I can't even say "that old". I am a young 25. But, in my lifetime, church has dramatically changed.

Early in my childhood, I remember the dramatic transition from hymnal to transparencies and an overhead projector. Then, as a teen, we switched from the "overheads" to a remedial computer and a projector that could have be no more than 500 or 600 lumens (in a room that had stained glass windows that lined the walls of the sanctuary).

This was a big change, but it seemed to stall out there. I mean what could a screen and projector be used for other than words on a screen?

Obviously, a lot has changed even in the last few years (check out this old post of Kent Shaffer).

I wonder where it will go from here...

What are some of your funny old school church tech memories?
