How to add a Digital Outreach to your Church

Understandably, the first question that might come to mind is, “Why
should we turn our church into a Digital Outreach?” Well, there are
a host of reasons you might want to pursue new ideas for outreach,
and the reasons for Digital Outreach are indicated below:

• You will have the ability to reach out beyond the confines of your
church to a greater, broader community.

• If your church currently ‘serves” those in a ten mile radius, your
Digital Ministry can go nationwide, or even international.

• It will allow you to better fill the Great Commission, per Acts 1:8
 - “But you shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come
upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me in Jerusalem, and in
all Judea and Samaria and to the end of the earth.”

• Allow you a way of ministering to a vast mission field.

After wondering “why” to go Digital, the next natural concern is
“what to do” to go Digital.  You may want to establish a Digital
Outreach Team, which will coordinate with those in charge of
creating other ideas for church outreach. Together, they can
create a plan to implement all your outreach ministry
ideas.
