Is Your Church
Digital Door Open?

Ponder this… 1. If members are visiting websites or posting to community pages on Facebook but your church does not have a web site or Facebook page, what does that say about your ministry?
2. If people can go to websites of churches in your area and see current events planned for the weekend but not at your church website, what does that say about your ministry?
3. If members view videos posted, share inspirational emails and blogs but not from your church, what does that say about your ministry?

What’s stopping your ministry from opening the digital door wider?
