Thou Shall Not Twitter in Church…Says Who!

Here are 5 Reasons to Twitter During Church:

• 1.  You have the opportunity to be a real-time extension of your pastor’s voice while he/she is communicating God’s word.  You and your pastor can do some tag team teaching while you are being fed all at the same time.
• 2.  If the pastor shares something that moves you, inspires you, or changes your life, there is a good chance it will have the same impact on the lives of some of your Twitter followers as well.  Here is a tweet awhile back from Pastor Steven Furtick — “Preaching recently, I noticed the crowd was too busy tweeting to verbally respond.  Click clack is the new amen.”
• 3.  When Jesus said: Go into all the world and preach the Gospel…“All the world” applies to the Internet world as well as the Twitter world.  Do your part by going into all the Twitter world, tweeting the Good News.
• 4.  You will have a stored database of your compelling thoughts and notes from your favorite sermons.  Use a #hashtag to keep up with the information that you share.
• 5.  Many times, people suffer from (SADD) Sermon Attention Deficit Disorder.  So instead of just wandering off into space, simply wander off into the space of the World Wide Web.  It’s better use of your time Twittering great thoughts, instead of drawing on the back of offering envelops.
