How Churches of the Future Will Use Technology to Overcome Ice Storms

Today, churches all over the country cancelled services because of dangerous, icy road conditions. Many resorted to online only streaming services and pre-recorded events from years past.

Thankfully technology is coming that will ensure churches never again have to close their doors during a storm.

1. Powerless lighting

Technological advances may one day create a kind of lighting system capable of running even when electricity is unavailable. It sounds like science fiction, but it may one day make worship possible around the clock.

2. Unamplified Instruments

Even “pagans” want this one – instruments capable of generating sound without the use of amplifiers. Now we just need vocalists who can sing without monitors – perhaps an entire group of them signing together would work!

3. Genetically Modified Transportation Animals

As a genetics major, I’m really excited about this one. It’s possible that during our lifetime animals may be created that can traverse even the iciest fields. I’m told they also have built in navigation systems capable of avoiding other drivers.

4. Pastoral Housing

As churches grow larger, it is likely that they will soon be able to include rooms for pastors to live in, ensuring the flock will never be without its shepherd.

5. Local Messaging Systems

To find out what was happening at my church, I first checked the website and then was directed to Facebook. In the future, some churches may opt to put large metal objects on top of their buildings that, when struck by another metal object, could carry audio messages to the surrounding community.

Until the future arrives, stay warm my friends!

  1. I’ve also heard that they may be developing a system to heat buildings without electricity. It involves special combustible materials.

    If that technology does not become available soon enough, I’ve heard that there might be special organic clothing engineered from fibers of a plant to keep you warm from the cold.The hipsters will love this one.
