10 reasons why Ministers NEED to be on Social Media

Whether you are starting a church or you are a veteran minister, social media has become more than just a “cool thing” to do.  It really has become a must.  And, if you want to be successful in reaching this generation for Christ, you need to become engaged in it.

In this short video, I share 7 of the top 10 reasons why people are involved in social media and how you can use that to help grow your ministry.
