Example
(2011) I thought maybe 25-50 would join me. Maybe. Much to my surprise,
2,500 people
joined me for that “little” study.
(2013) Today I don’t just lead a study, I’m the director of a world-wide community. And no longer is it just on my blog, but we are also on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, and
Instagram
.
88,000 ladies from over
106 countries
have joined our little OBS in the past couple years. We have
59 Facebook small groups
with leaders. We have
10 team leaders
. We have a prayer team. We have a teaching team, social media team, core team, and even an executive assistant.Slide15
More than a gimmick.
Social Media and
the internet can be
a powerful tool.Slide16

In Worship
Invite people to “Check in” before or after worship. This can easily be done during the announcements!
Provide a “sharable” quote from the Sermon in the bulletin; 140 characters or less. Or could be the main Bible verse used in the sermon. You can even go so far as adding a
hashtag
.
Ie
: #Confirmation, #worship, #
YourChurch
Consider printing the Bible verse as an image so that people can take a picture and share.
Include a question to ponder and share.
What are some ideas you have for using #

Provide opportunities for people to come to church, apart from worship.Slide42
