Why We FaceBook

Some one ask me the other day why we try to keep up this blog not only on here but on Myspace as well and why we have Facebook page and why we have a mini feed with "Twitter". We are a small staff why do we keep up with all of this stuff. My initial reaction was that's an easy answer but the more I thought about it there are many reasons why we keep up with all this stuff and more. Not only are we going to continue do all of these things we are going to add more things as our schedules permit. The reason being is that people need to hear the awesome story of Christ and the internet is the most effective way we can build relationships outside of day to day contact. We want to show people who have misconceptions about church that there are churches out there that are not stuck in the stone age. We do not want to promote Discover Point Church we simply want to show people that churches can still share the word of God and use modern technology to do so. We also want to keep in touch with our members. Facebook, myspace and twitter are ways for us to share information with you quickly and for you to share information with us quickly. Thirdly it is a method for our members to invite their friends to church. If people are skeptical they can see everything we are about right on the web without stepping a foot in the door. Ultimately what it is all about is see people come to Christ and grow in that relationship. That's why we facebook.
