ConnX the podcast from the South Carolina United Methodist Conference Episode # 5
Today were talking Web Ministy, Hopefully today will cover a lot of the basics of church internet needs. We felt like we really wanted to offer some good mostly free solutions for churches to get there messages out.
In the US alone we have over 233 Million internet users. Which is about 70% of the US population. I you aren’t using the internet you are in the vast minority. A lot of our churches fall into that 30%. And we talk a lot about the fact that our youth aren’t coming to our churches anymore.
You need to get online! Whether you use dial up or broadband.
