Hello Pastor Frank,

Your response to Pastor Michael’s post was both affirming and insightful. You emphasized the urgency of evangelism in the digital age by quoting “How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard?” (Romans 10:14), reminding us that technology is a divine tool to amplify the Gospel’s reach. Your reflection on platforms like social media and podcasts highlighted how these spaces can become sacred ground for connection and transformation.

Another verse that speaks to this mission is “Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation” (Mark 16:15). This command from Jesus is not limited by geography—it includes the digital world. It urges us to be intentional and bold in our outreach, recognizing that “all the world” now includes virtual spaces where young people dwell and seek meaning.

Biblically, the call to share the Gospel is timeless, but the methods must evolve. Practically, your point about balance is crucial. While we engage youth through screens, we must also guide them toward spiritual disciplines that foster intimacy with God—solitude, prayer, and Scripture meditation. Creating tech-free zones for reflection, encouraging journaling, and modeling quiet time can help young believers develop a rhythm of rest and renewal.

You didn’t pose a direct question, but your reflection on balance invites deeper thought. How might we design digital ministry that not only attracts attention but also cultivates spiritual depth?

Blessed be the name of our Lord, Pastor Luke
