Pastor Mike Ballard wrote this guest article for Church Communications Pro about some of the benefits he saw in being a blogging preacher. While I am certainly not a pastor, I can understand these benefits he sees which help him to better reach his congregation. In summary his points were:
- Creativity
- Information
- Transparency
- Discipleship
- Preaching
- World Missions
At it’s core blogging is about communications, not technology. Likewise, preaching is about communicating the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Could there be a better example of a perfect match of purpose and tool? Read Mike’s post here and see if it doesn’t encourage you as well.
