How Technology is keeping Congregations Closer

by | Feb 7, 2014 | Religion

Bishop Jordan has been using technology to help share the word of God. There are many things ministries can do today to reach out to their congregation and have far reaching affect beyond the usual neighborhood or parish of a traditional church. One of the latest tools available through technology is mobile devices. You know that almost everyone has a mobile device and it can be a wonderful tool to use to stay in contact with your congregation and to share God’s word. Here are five ways mobile devices can help grow and share with a congregation:

1. Christian Apps and Sites: You can share mobile apps and sites with your congregation in order to keep them more engaged with the church. Although it seems unconventional you have to accept the world is changing and instead of allowing your congregation to diminish you can stay in contact with them using modern techniques.

2. Prayer Requests: You can set up prayer requests on your website and make it easy to access for members on their mobile phones. This way those who cannot make it to church remain active members of the community and continue their conversations with God as well as maintain their trust in him. The easier you make it for people to pray with you the more people will.

3. Blogs and Newsletters: Churches have always shared information with their congregation through newsletters. Now it is even easier to stay in contact with a blog or e-newsletters. People can access the newsletters and blogs using their mobile devices and stay in the loop with charitable events and important dates on the Christian calendar. It is God’s e-minder to follow his word.

4. Sermons: If people are unable to attend church you can consider showing your sermons live online or record them and post them online for members to watch when they are able. Better late then never.

5. Contributions and Donations: If you are having a charity drive people can go online and make donations without feeling guilty for not having been at church for a while. Again it is all about engaging the congregation that suits their modern lifestyle. It also makes it easier for people to make contributions to the church.

Staying in contact with your congregation is easier than ever making spreading God’s word more far reaching than ever before.
