Mission
The Digital Evangelism Ministry's mission is to reach the congregation and our community through media in order to inspire, inform, and invite participation in the life, mission, and purposes of our Church.
Our ministries continue to reach across all social, ethnic, geographical and economic barriers through every means of communication available to our team. This ministry handles all the communications, web, visual presentations, videotaping and duplication of all weekly services and special events.
Our goal is not just to post all the events that happen, rather a strategic effort of digital evangelism. Digital discipleship and evangelism are ways to activate the social influence of a church membership, building bridges to the local community, developing a meaningful understanding of felt needs, and determining relevant ways to serve the community (both in and outside the church). We now live in a world of intersecting cultures or communities. The apostle Paul admonishes us to “become all things to all men, that I may by all means save some” (1 Corinthians 9:19-23 NASB). To accomplish this in modern society, our definition of culture needs to be expanded. Many now find themselves between cultures and functioning in multiple online and offline communities simultaneously. We must connect with audiences on a deeper level based on unifying needs and core values that transcend standard marketing categorizations. Digital tools can enable us to understand the drivers behind the actions, beliefs, concerns, needs, and values of larger groups, better positioning us to serve them in a relevant way.

In today’s world where people are turning to the internet for answers, the first two parts of the journey are primarily spent in the digital space. Based on the person’s situation, they may or may not transition to an in-person experience, though that is always the one of the goals of this process
We are always looking for volunteers who are willing to be serve. If you have a passion or just want to learn how to utilize all media to spread the Gospel, feel free to contact us at [email protected]

Adventist Peace Radio PodcastFrom their earliest roots Seventh-day Adventists, at their best, have been concerned with restoring personal and social wholeness through a commitment to justice and peace.
We therefore appeal to all Adventists to join us in reclaiming our faith tradition's historic commitment to peacemaking and conscientious objection in times of war. We challenge all Adventists to engage in the vital work of restoring community through active service to society. We welcome in friendship persons of all beliefs or none who wish to stand beside us in dialogue and in action to create more just, more equitable, more sustainable, and more compassionate social realities. |

DIGITAL SPACES
Humans of AdventismHumans of Adventism is as simple as it sounds: just a little slice of the internet focusing on Adventist humans. Inspired by Brandon Stanton's Humans of New York, HoA is a storytelling platform that shares the experiences and perspectives of the Adventist people. Unlike Humans of New York, however, all of the photos we use are provided by the person featured. This allows us to reach out beyond our own neighborhood for a more diverse set of stories.
For those who aren't Adventist, we hope that we can still provide something you can relate with. Adventist humans are pretty similar to other humans when it gets down to it. We fear and worry, hope and struggle, and try to figure out our place in the world just like everyone else. These are our stories. |

Kevin WilsonI am Kevin Wilson. I was born in Sri Lanka, moved to the Sultanate of Oman when I was 12, and have lived in Maryland, Lebanon, Michigan, and California.
Over the past 29 years, I’ve picked up 3.5 languages and have traveled to 13 countries. I am a cultural mutt. My multi-cultural upbringing has instilled me this deep belief that people cannot be reduced to a sum of body parts, a few sentences on a social media post, nor a set of labels. I believe people are stories, created in the image of God with a capacity for love and to love. Chai, to me, has been a consistent companion during these cross cultural adventures; an enduring connector of humanity as it is a symbol of the good life. Here you will find a cross-section of who I am: My love for chai, coupled with a love for authentic connection and the pursuit of the good life. Welcome! |
