  2. OPTIMISING THE DIGITAL WORLD FOR EVANGELISM AND DISCIPLESHIP

1. BIBLICAL VIEW OF DIGITAL EVANGELISM
Question: What is digital evangelism?
i. It is the strategic and deliberate use of internet and social-media platforms to preach the gospel.

ii. Students should mention some communication gadgets available to evangelize for Christ.
iii. The Bible described various means adopted by the Lord Jesus Christ and the Apostle to reach their audience. Identify them in the following Bible passages. (Luke 5:1-3; Matt.5:1-2).
iv. Apostle Paul used his hand writing (a form of text message) to write the Colossians. (Col.4:18).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1:
A. Activity: Students should identify those who used text messages in the Bible.
B. Activity: Students should mention three strategies Apostle Paul adopted or three conditions he subjected himself into to win others for Christ according to 1Corinthians 9:21-23.
C. Activity: To conclude this outline, teachers should emphasise the need for students to plan and use all available communication devices at their disposal to win souls to Christ in fulfilment of divine mandate in Matthew 28:19-20.

2. OPTIMISING THE DIGITAL WORLD FOR EVANGELISM AND DISCIPLESHIP
i. Hostile communities can be reached through social media sites and platforms.
ii. Old friends can be reconnected through media groups e.g. WhatsApp groups and broadcast.
iii. The whole world can be reached through creative visual contents. We can all be content-creators and publishers.
iv. On-line Sunday Services, revival, programs, teaching and seminars are now in vogue. They are veritable means of preaching the gospel to the near and far.

CLASS ACTIVITY 2: Teacher should group the class into four and distribute any of the four points raised above to each group for brief comments or discussion.

SUMMARY: Digital evangelism is cost efficient and effective.

CONCLUSION: Digital evangelism should be incorporated with traditional forms of evangelism. It does not replace traditional methods such as one-on-one, mass, tracts evangelism, etc. (Matt.28:19-20).

EVALUATION: How can the present global digital technologies be optimised for the sake of the gospel.

CLOSING PRAYER: Almighty Father, please open the eyes of Your children to make use of available technological opportunities to reach out for Christ in Jesus’ name.

ASSIGNMENT: Mention five (5) things that may discourage people from going into the mission field or becoming a missionary.
