WHAT'S A PODCAST? Why all the buzz about it? And what does it mean for vocation ministers?
Podcasts are video and/or audio files distributed over the Internet. They have everything to do with media freedom—and the ability of the “little person” to speak and find an audience. No longer are broadcasting and world media distribution the exclusive domain of NBC or CNN or United Artists; anyone with a computer can now be part of the media. You and I can make a speech, screen a homemade film, conduct an interview, vocalize an opinion, sing a song, tell a story—perhaps a vocation story—and be heard by hundreds…thousands… possibly millions.
