“A Charge to Keep I Have”
I am amazed at the number of pastors who have yet to embrace and appreciate the impact that social media can have on their ministry. You would think that in the 21st century at minimum embracing a synergistic approach and understanding the importance of “free” platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Blogs, PowerPoint worship services, Video Announcements, E-Mail Newsletters… ministries would be beating themselves up to employ these technologies.
On top of that, anyone who says “I don’t understand all of that computer stuff” is no excuse. Trust me, there is a young person sitting in your pews Sunday after Sunday who would love to get you started on exploring the technology frontier if you would simply ask.
Imagine the impact that your ministry could have for the Kingdom of God “IF” you would dare to try 21st century technology.
I will close with a very familiar hymn (Especially to AMEC ministers) “A Charge to Keep I Have”. I love the words to verse 2. “To serve the present age, my calling to fulfill, o may it all my powers engage; to do my Master’s will.”
Are you serving the present age?
