My name is Matt Longley, I work full time as a Search Engine Optimizer and Internet Marketer. I have a degree in theology, and a passion for people and technology. I plan to express the necessity of online evangelism on my blog. The Great Commission states that Christians are to go into all the world and preach the gospel. Many Christians feel limited by their location or by their personality but many times they do not take advantage of opportunities that they have right in front of them. They dont realize that every time they sign onto the internet, they literally have millions of people at their finger tips. It is possible to go into all the world and preach the gospel, and you can do it at home right from your computer. Many unsaved people will not come to your church, let you in their house to talk about Christ, or even listen to preaching on the radio, but they might be intrigued to read something they see on the internet. There are thousands and thousands of opportunities for Christians to reach out to unsaved people online in a non-confrontational way. The problem is that many Christians have not taken advantage of the opportunity. In the next few months I hope to convince Christians of their need to be involved online, and show them effective methods to make the most of their efforts.
This blog will focus on evangelism, but will also cover a wide range of topics related to Christianity, politics, web development, marketing, web 2.0, and other interesting topics. I hope to not only educate Christians on becoming more involved in online networks for the purpose of evangelism, but also to teach them how to stay safe online, and even make money from home.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions or would like specific topic to be covered.
