How can geo-mapping technology be used in apps/sites to encourage, organize, and promote neighborhood activities led by Christians in the community, fostering a neighborhood movement? How can such technology make us aware of our neighbors’ needs and mobilize our neighborhood to meet those needs? How can technology help us know and love each other? How much safer, how much healthier would the environment in which children grow be if neighbors knew and loved each other? But what a difference could we make in our community if we were intentional at loving our actual neighbors. But how many of your actual neighbors do you know? How can we expect our communities to flourish when we don’t even know the people living within a few hundred yards from us? How can you love someone if you don’t understand who they are, what they value, their strengths, and the challenges they face? It is easy to be unaware of the needs of others, when we don’t know them. Jesus commands us to love our neighbor as ourselves. Join us at Austin,TX as we battle the challenges confronting our communities, our society, our families, and our spiritual lives. The weekend event will focus the passion, purpose, and creativity of our entrepreneurial and creative community, connecting incredible innovators with organizations, and initiatives that need their talent. Join us this September, to foster visionary creatives to create new mediums to transform lives through a holistic Christian approach that combats social injustice, creates a culture of generosity, facilitates spiritual justice and unleashes the fullest capacity of each individual. “How can all Creatives help alleviate and eradicate injustice, teach God’s unconditional love and build a healthier and stronger society?” That is the question we will answer at Create for the Kingdom. We encourage collaboration between all of the disciplines for the purposes of building a long-term ecosystem where global issues are tackled from a Creative Christian perspective, while welcoming the participations of individuals from all worldviews and faiths. During this weekend there will be a Game Jam, Film Challenge and Hackathon, each with prizes (check them out below). It expands the weekend to include Filmmakers and Game Developers along with the traditional Hackathon-ers. Create for the Kingdom is a special Code for the Kingdom event in Austin, TX.
