I really appreciate the efforts of Brother Jonathan Johnson in taking seriously the counsel of Elder M. Russel Ballard to use the Internet to share the Gospel. I totally agree and express my desire to participate in the same cause. I actually started with a blog about the True Church on googles’ blogger but no one has viewed in the 2 years that it was up. I don’t know how to advertise it. Now that I have new avenues and forums to participate in, I think it would be easier to do this internet sharing of the gospel. I also agree that the web is the next frontier in missionary work and in helping today’s generation prepare to go and serve missions.
We have to be flexible and open for change. We have to harness the vast technology available to us and to the world. I appreciate so much the media departments of the Church who are doing a really good job in reaching millions of people through internet, radio, tv, print etc. I wish to be involved in this kind of undertaking.
Although it took him the whole class period to explain all of the stuff, which he could have summarized and condensed more with emphasis on strong keypoints instead of a long discussion, the vital and crucial crux of his message outweighed all other considerations.
That is true. I totally agree. I actually attended the graduation ceremony where Elder M. Russell Ballard posed the challenge. Good job. Keep up the good work. I hope there will be more people who would take advantage of the good of technology.
indeed. three things i think that separates us from other creatures are the ability to analyze the past present and future, our humor and our communicability. especially the latter.
the internet really is a powerful tool. nowadays, when EVERY thing matters, the vast ocean of knowledge really helps us to further expand our capabilities as Human. it is a TOOL to be used virtuously, not a weapon to kill lives, figuratively.
only with, through and in the gospel can we truly attain the full “human expansion.”
