How Making Comments Spurs Engagement

There are lots of things you can do each day as a Digital Missionary. However, there is something you can do every single day for a short amount of time but will give you lots of opportunities to have conversations on social media. What is that? Watch this video, listen to the podcast or look at the bullet points below.

 

 

By making Comments on Social Media you can increase engagement. There are two ways:

  1. Comment on peoples posts. People post every day. Prayerfully approach social media each day and ask God to guide you to which social media posts you need to comment on. Then, as God leads you, comment and start a new conversation with someone.
  2. Comment on Replies within Your Church’s or Ministry’s social media accounts. Whenever someone comments on the Church’s social media posts, reply to those comments and start a conversation that can ultimately lead to spiritual conversation.

Making comments spurs engagement online. It leads to follow up discussions and more conversations that will hopefully lead to conversations about Christ. Make this a common practice as a Digital Missionary and see how God uses it for His Kingdom.
