Al Mohler on the Ethics of Communication in the Blogosphere

Al Mohler spoke at the God Blog Conference in 2007 on "Pioneering the New Media for Christ." It's an outstanding lecture, as one might expect. Of particular interest are some of his concluding comments on the ethics of communication. Here is that 8 minute section:


Notice what he says about accountability and credibility. He rightly says, "We need to make sure that our blogs are accountable to the Christian church...Someone ought to be able to call us on this...Our fellow Christians in the local church need to be reading our blogs and holding us personally accountable...Credibility must be personal...There should be no anonymity...Anonymous blogs are a scandal."
