Should we use media to reach out or is it too impersonal?
I have decided to write this as an article because I was surprised to see that many believers disagree. I obviously agree because this message

As I see it, a lot of pleasures are of course God-given and its good for us to give thanks for them. But I want to say something to people who believe that their whole pursuit in life should basically be for pleasure in one form or another. I would say it is a pretty popular view and one worth addressing.
An early Christian leader, Paul, wrote that if there is no resurrection, “Let us eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow we die”. In other words, if this life is all there is to live for, then let’s live it up and enjoy it.
The Word of God sowed in mass through media will produce a mass harvest. It is our responsability to sow bountifully if we want to see bountiful results.
At the time of writing, there is a war on between Israel and Lebanon. A lot of people are suffering – Christians, Moslems and Jews. There is tension between Iran and the USA and it is believed that the conflict could escalate. Apparently a islamic terror plot to blow up some airplanes in mid-air has just been foiled, and security measures are being tightened everywhere. The economies of the world are looking shaky, and fear and anxiety are on the rise.
It is at times like this that many of us long for the return of Christ.
“We know that we are in God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.”
(1 John 5:20)
