Tried to Storify the #JesusFame chat but the process became mind-numbing. It also felt a little manipulative, i.e. me shaping other's words.

Our #JesusFame discussion yesterday was lively. Some, though, thought I was promoting a "make Jesus famous" ethic.

To be clear, I'm not.

And if fame was not Jesus's purpose, perhaps it should not be the purpose of Jesus followers.

As I wrote in my post, I think fame is a red herring. Fame was not Jesus's purpose.

MT @mrajswoboda: We should not look for fame. It may be the kindling the sin of pride. And God may miss the praise he is owed. #JesusFame

I guess I'm asking, as we wind down the hour --

What do we take away from this conversation about #JesusFame?

If the Gospel is an "inversion of fame," & we seek to follow Jesus, what is the alternative to #JesusFame?

For those who use "Making Jesus Famous" in their ministry (or if you know someone who does), why? Why is it useful?

Preach.

RT @krystle_wheeler: Um. Jesus is already famous. How about we disciple people into the whole taking up the cross idea? #JesusFame

Is it possible that Jesus breaks the idea of fame altogether? Is fame antithetical to the Kingdom?

Are "fans" -- in our use of the word -- the same things as "followers" -- as written about in the Gospel? #JesusFame @evanwickham

Does making Jesus famous require one to make *themselves* famous?

How do we rationalize that quest for fame?

Could we have the idea of #JesusFame without Capitalism? Is the concept merely an extension of Capitalism-based Christianity?

Q2: How might making Jesus famous be different than making -- say -- a product or a brand famous? How would it be the same?

MT @DylanPahman: focus on being like Jesus, & it will attract people, even if you run from them into the desert. #JesusFame

Q1: Is "evangelism" the same thing as "making Jesus famous?"

A simple suggestions for the #JesusFame chat:

Tweet your neighbor like you would want to be tweeted. In short, be kind.

Now let's begin!
