What could Internet and media technologies have to do with church ministries?
Can Internet and media technologies be used for spiritual outreach ministries?
Introduction. Church tech is providing Christians greater opportunities to spread God’s Word more than any other time in history. Internet and media technologies for distributing His Word and ministry messages have never been easier. Is it OK to use technology for ministry purposes? Why not! I call these opportunities “God Ideas.” We should all be like David VanKoevering, co-originator of digitized keyboard sound with Robert Moog and brilliant inventor of digitized sound, who has for his lifelong motto, “I have no right to lose a God Idea!”
Neglect of Use. However, despite these great communication opportunities, Christians mostly default the Internet and technology to the enemy simply through neglect of use. God predicted this in Amos 8:11-12, “Behold, the days come…, [there will be] a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD [Truth]: And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run back and forth to seek [Truth], and shall not find it.”
Christians Have the Answers. How can Christians solve the Truth famine? How about something as simple as purposeful, intentional DISTRIBUTION? Among various solutions to the Truth famine are: (1) multiple listening to God’s Word and recorded messages; (2) effective teaching, learning, memory, and accountability; (3) Christian stewardship; and (4) Kingdom responsibility to do our part with purposeful decisions by church and spiritual leaders to partner for a Kingdom Transformation across areas, regions, counties, provinces, states, and nations.

Contacting Kingdom is Special. Have you ever noticed that when you contact Kingdom, Inc. you receive spiritual encouragement and outreach “how to’s” more t han simply a sales person selling supplies or equipment? There is a definite reason for this!
Kingdom, Inc., now celebrating its 30th Anniversary, began wit h Johnny Berguson creating and selling a 14-cassette tape horse training course based on Biblical principles for raising children. With each course, he included a free cassette of his testimony of being saved, called to be an evangelist, and a short Gospel message. Not long after, he received feedback of more than a thousand people coming to Christ through that recording! The horse course sold well and he would often sell extra blank cassettes to churches at price reductions to same them money. Soon the churches started asking for duplicators and other equipment, and Kingdom, Inc. was born!
God’s Extended Family. Kingdom is more than a business just selling “things,” but an extension of the Christian family and Ministry. We purposefully encourage and educate ministry workers to reach others with God’s love. Johnny and Juanita Berguson and Kingdom, Inc., from the beginning until now, have had a vision to make disciples within the company, within our community, and within our nation and beyond. Kingdom, Inc. is simply a means to further the Kingdom of God by making disciples everywhere.

One Church Cannot Do It Alone. As one wise pastor from Toronto, CN said, “It takes a city-wide church to affect a city-wide transformation.” With that in mind, I make a call to all churches and Christians reading this to consider banding together. Lay down all your small sectarian differences, and major on the primary principles of God’s Kingdom—the Great Commandment and the Great Commission. Get together with churches in your area, and together plan outreach for your region. Be sure the Great Commandment is first in your heart, as you cannot do the Great Commission without first having love! As a three cord rope is not broken, Jesus, your churches, and Kingdom make a three cord rope (Ecclesiastes 4:12). We, here at Kingdom, Inc., can help you make the difficult easy—Technology to Serve Your Ministries!
