Some people want to change the world.

Some people make a difference.

Some people push the barriers of the status quo.

Not most people, some people.

If you intend to plants seeds of faith around the world, great. I do too. People need us to. As new technology emerges, I ask one question: How can we use this to spread our message? God’s message, that is.

Back up. Let’s first make things clear, I am not a theologian and I promise not to pretend to be. I am passionate about my faith and reaching out to others. I also love to learn about new media, and really use it to spread my faith. I know that the world is hungry for it.

So how do we use new media to make a change? Your starting point will depend on the level of understanding you have of the Internet. I recommend signing up for Facebook and Twitter today, if you have not done so already. These sites are great starting places for individuals who want to begin connecting with others. We have entered an age where all people can have a voice. You do not need to be a great writer, or film maker, or musician to have a voice.

New media allows everyone to have the tools they need to make a difference and spread their own faith-based message. New media allows us to test our efforts with very little loss. The important thing is to just start spending time promoting your message. Build community and form togetherness.
