LifeChurch.tv has a Second Life Church Campus

For the last few months we have been working on a virtual campus in Second Life. If you are not familiar with Second Life, you can read more about it in Wikipedia.
We purchased an island (16 virtual acres of real estate) and have worked with both in-house and outside developers to develop the property. There are still several areas of the island that we have not developed, but we are opening the island for a “beta test” this week.
You can download the software and create an avatar (see the wiki above) on Second Life for free and using the map you can search for “Experience Island” then teleport there. If you already have the software installed you can simply go there.
 
Some of the things to checkout when you are there:
- On-demand video
- Free LifeChurch.tv T-shirts
- The environment and theming of our LifeKids area and the building in general
- The Mysecret.tv glass house
Also, on the island you will see an area dedicated to content from our friends at xxxchurch.com. I need to warn you that there is a huge problem on Second Life with porn and “virtual sex”. It is one of several reasons we are there, but it is also something that you need to be on guard about.

Below you can see several screenshots of the island and buildings.
We will have a grand opening very soon, but in the meantime visit Experience Island if you can and give me your feedback please.
