Description
The church today has an amazing opportunity to engage with a society that is more engaged and connected with the world around them than ever before. However, this inherently presents a challenge of discerning when, how, with whom, using what and ultimately asking why in leveraging technology to connect with a population increasingly connected but further apart than ever. Church workers serving at every level are faced with the dilemma of determining where to invest shrinking organizational resources to generate the maximum impact in spreading the Gospel. Thus, it is essential for leaders throughout the church to appreciate the challenges and opportunities of emerging technologies and develop a framework by which they can evaluate their potential impact on their current and future ministries.
