New Tools for Ministry
A hallmark of Seventh-day Adventist theology is our belief in sharing the everlasting gospel and preparing the world for Christ’s return. In today's digital age, this mission can be effectively fulfilled through modern communications, social media, graphic design, and various media tools. Evangelism should not be viewed as a task for just a few; it is a calling for all of us, especially in a world where digital platforms can amplify our message.
The use of social media allows us to reach wide audiences with concise and impactful messages. Graphic design enhances our outreach by creating visually appealing content that draws attention and conveys our faith creatively. Various media tools can be leveraged to create podcasts, videos, and interactive content that engage today's youth and encourage them to share their faith.
As we aim to place personal and public evangelism at the heart of our church’s work, we invite youth ministry leaders to utilize these resources. They can equip and inspire young people to harness technology to share their faith, serve their communities, and effectively lead others to Christ. Transforming the perception of evangelism from a task to an engaging and collaborative effort can empower everyone to participate actively, using the tools available in our modern society.
