Picture this...
You are on the way to work. You get on the train, and sit down. What do you do? Most likely, the same as everyone around you. You get out your phone - and you look at Instagram. Or the news. Or YouTube, or Netflix.
Everyone on the train will be looking at their smartphones.
How long do you reckon you spend on a screen every day? With your phone, or on your laptop? Or a big screen watching Netflix? Or on your Xbox? If you are like the average person, it’s seven hours a day - plus.
In particular, you are on your phone. You probably think of it as an extension of yourself. I’m sure you would find it pretty hard to live without it.
Our mission is "making disciples through digital strategies".
More and more people today will encounter Jesus by digital means.
They won’t come to a church, and they may not even know a Christian as a friend.
But if they are struggling with anxiety, or stress, or they feel depressed, or lonely, they may well go searching for the answers to their issues in life online. There, they can be open, honest, and let their guard down.
In 2020, around the world, 216 million people visited Power to Change’s international range of websites, such as EveryStudent.com, or IssuesIFace.com.
Through the 48 different language versions of EveryStudent.com, over 900,000 decisions for Christ were made. That’s incredible!
Jesus commanded us in Mark 16:15 to “go into all the world and preach the good news to all creation”. Digital strategies are helping us to do just that.
