At Fellowship Church, we are in the middle of a 3-part series called “There’s An App For That“. Naturally, that theme appeals to me. Whether you are an Apple fan, or more recently Android and Blackberry, the face of technology has been forever changed by the clever concept of mini-apps (applications) for your your smart phone or other mobile devices. The marketing is brilliant, whatever your need, there’s an app for that. It appeals to us, it’s easy to get and it’s at a very low cost or even free.
In this series we are looking at how there is also an app (solution) for many of life’s tougher problems. Everyone has trails, struggles, and pain at times in there life. Have you ever been ashamed of past mistakes? Have you ever doubted God’s fairness? Do you ever wonder how you are going to make it financially? How do you deal with it? Where do you go? Ignoring them or pretending they don’t exist is not a good solution. During this series we will be discovering the different apps that God has given to us to deal with life’s dilemmas.
I’m also excited about a new app that we are rolling out in church during this series – the Bible app by YouVersion.com. Using the Live Events feature, attendees can follow along with the message outline, take part in survey polls, take notes, and submit prayer requests. I’m excited to see how we can continue to make the experience interactive and engaging as we continue to redefine church.
