12 Ways Tech Can Ignite Your Faith

Increased Use of Video

Gone (for most) are the days of the overhead projector. With tools like ProPresenter and LiveWorship and cloud-based worship planning, technology is more prevalent in corporate worship services than it’s ever been. Everything from sermon bumpers to announcements is being videoed. The church I pastor meets in a movie theater. When you have an 80-foot screen in your “worship center,” video is somewhat of a must. 

Promotion of Events

Social media allows for more connectivity and information sharing than ever before. Facebook event notices, e-mail reminders & invites, and shared calendars all can be used to schedule, promote, and plan events. Many times, if there’s an event going on that you didn’t know about, it’s not because the information wasn’t shared. It likely was, and you just missed it. 

Church-Specific Social Networks

Social media has also spun off in to customized church networks. Web-based applications like The City and The Table Project have brought specialized tools to churches that assist them in providing information about prayer requests, community groups, service opportunities, and much more.
