Online Jesus: A Guide to Community, Discipleship, and Care Online
Overview
In the Early Church, people came together daily in houses. Today, people are coming together on social media. We cannot afford to miss the enormous opportunity to reach the "crowd" that exists online for God's kingdom. Social networks have become the front door to faith for those who will not or cannot attend a brick-and-mortar church. And for those in your church already living out their faith, online groups expand their opportunity for daily discipleship, service to others, communal prayer, and building deep personal connections. Widening the scope of your church to include the 24/7 online community creates both a great potential for ministry and significant challenges. Through the guidance and straightforward tips offered in Online Jesus, you can efficiently and effectively utilize social media to enhance your ability to serve God and love others in your community and beyond.
