Internet Revolutionising Evangelism According To Expert
4 Jan 2010
Walt Wilson, a former Apple Computer executive says the World Wide Web is revolutionising evangelism. “We have the technology to reach every man, woman and child on Earth. We’re the first generation in all history to have this capacity.” Wilson, founder of Global Media Outreach (GMO), partnered with Campus Crusade for Christ in 2004 to create one-page websites that present the Gospel using the ‘Four Spiritual Laws’ evangelistic resource. GMO has more than 100 websites and receive at least seven million visitors monthly from every nation on the globe.
Through partnerships with various churches, GMO has mobilised 3 600 ‘online missionaries’ to respond to questions and comments posted at the sites. The missionaries share personal stories, Scriptures and prayers. “We believe God is doing something very dramatic in these late days, and we believe everybody’s going to have an opportunity to know Jesus,” Wilson said. “Nobody will be able to say I didn’t know...We can reach the world.” For more: www.globalmediaoutreach.com
