Five Easy Ways to Reach the World for Christ

Techvangelism ’06 Conference to Show How Technology Can Help

Menlo Park, CA; March 2, 2006 – Sharing faith, studying the Bible, responding to those in need and building community define a strong Christian journey.  Technology can make this easier. Techvangelism ’06 will present five easy ways for people to tell others all over the world about this journey, from their own computers ..

Featuring visionary speakers and roundtable discussions, the conference will showcase five simple methods to reach the world for Christ and grow as a Christian using home computers:

1.       Share faith online with friends, family and colleagues.

2.       Learn God's Word in greater depth using online Bible studies.

3.       Expand Christian relationships through web communities.

4.       Respond to emails from seekers across the globe.

5.       Explore information on the Internet for Christian growth and mentoring.

 Today, more than 1 billion Internet users ‘log-on’ worldwide,” said keynote speaker Walt Wilson. “The way people around the world make a spiritual connection has been revolutionized by technology. It’s time for Christians to use the new tools God has provided to fulfill the Great Commission. Through the use of these tools, those who never thought they’d be in a position to share the Gospel in remote parts of the world can now experience the joy of reaching out to countries that traditionally have been closed,” he concluded.
