Hello brothers and sisters.
Happy Sabbath.
What a blessing to be able to have the technology that allows us to share a message with you regularly, and what a blessing that we can use this same technology to share the message of salvation with others. Today, our churches throughout the world are emphasizing the use of media to fulfill our mission.
In this age of digital resources, artificial intelligence, social networks, and traditional media such as radio and television, we have many more opportunities to reach people and places that previously seemed unreachable.
When Paul wrote to the Christians in Rome, he stressed that they should go and preach so that others may believe in God: In Romans 10:14 he asks them: 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? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?
Today those questions are still applicable to us and we can respond to them by sharing videos, graphics, podcasts and more, full of content that speaks of the love of God.
This Sabbath as we celebrate Network of Online Witnesses (NOW) let us get involved in the challenge of talking about Jesus everyday.
Maranatha!
