Social media for ministry
Speaking to worship and technology leaders on Saturday at Church Music Ga about Digital Media in Ministry. Came up with this analogy…
A church website would be compared to the church building. You can find information there about all the ministries and goings on regarding the church as a whole. A facebook page is like the Sr. Pastor, on his fb page you can find out information about him, his friends and family and what he is passionate about. And finally, Twitter is like the sign and marquee out by the road. You share short statements about what is going on with the pastor and within the church and direct people to important events to get them to visit the church or Sr. Pastor.
I guess the point is, when a church leader asks if they should Tweet in Twitter – ask if their church has a sign or marquee in front of their church building… Your thoughts and comments are appreciated.
It never ceases to amaze me how much our group of media volunteers at FBC Snellville love to serve. We require any where form 10-12 volunteers each Sunday to pull off a 4 camera
shoot with CG on front and back wall. Even with summer vacations and a normal rotation we always have people stepping up. It’s been cool to stick to our commitment of “more volunteers requires less per month allowing all to attend bible study and worship more often per month”.
We currently use an “old school” spreadsheet via email for our weekly scheduling. We’ve been testing Planning Center Online with some success. Check it out.
