Is Digital Evangelism Really Working?

Innovation: Using digital technology to share Jesus.

Desired Outcome: Helping people meet their Messiah where they are – online.

Technologies such as the Internet and mobile phones allow us as Christians to take the Great Commission to an entirely new level. Over the past decade, millions have come to know Christ as their Savior through digital evangelism. The Christian Digital Research Group highlights the extraordinary ways God is using technology to reach new believers.

Are You Man Enough for the New Canaan Society?

Innovation: Men finding their identity as men in Christ.

Desired Outcome: Men gathering together to encourage each other in friendship and faith and to support each other to be better husbands, fathers — and better men — in the marketplace and in our communities.

The New Canaan Society (NCS) is a network of men joined by a common desire for a deep and abiding friendship with Jesus, and lasting and transparent friendships with each other. The NCS is often described as a combination of Young Life for marketplace men, with principles from an AA/12-steps program…being open, honest, vulnerable in safe place. Join Tim Keller, Andy Crouch and 25,000 other men in NCS chapters nationwide. Did I mention it was free? For more information about NCS or a chapter near you, click here.

Where Practitioners Teach Transformation Through Business? 

Innovation: Using business to bend culture towards Jesus.

Desired Outcome: To exhibit the relevance of Jesus in every area of life around the world.

Business for Transformation (B4T) refers to profitable businesses strategically placed in the least reached areas of the world to employ and engage the least reached for Christ. The B4T Expo, November 2-4 in San Jose, California, will introduce you to a new generation of cross-cultural workers who strive to eliminate the secular/sacred divide and see Jesus glorified in the workplace–setting standards and changing lives. Presenters are overseas practitioners who will share case studies of successes, failures and lessons learned as they strive to establish businesses, create jobs and build relationships among the lost.
