What if 66% of the World Did Not Believe in God & How Can Mobile Bring Them Back?

Touchy subject I know but the reality is that about 66% of today’s teens “13-18” DO NOT believe in God. Just Google it and look at the studies, it is truly shocking. I talk to a lot of Churches on a weekly basis and the number one statement I hear is “Our Church is primarily an older community so a Mobile App would not help us”. Does that not scare you as a Church leader? Does it not frighten you that once your “older community” begins to depart this Earth your Church could be left with empty pews in a Godless society? The cold hard truth is that we all must die at some point, so if we are to continue to spread the word, we must find a way to bring back those 66% of teens to God.

So what can we do?

·         Be more engaging with youth in services and groups
·         Reach out to them on their level and through a communication channel they use, Mobile
·         Make the whole experience more fun
·         Allow for more interaction during points of engagement
·         Allow them to create their own Mobile Communities

Mobile can help you achieve all these goals within your youth community.  

With roughly 80% of today’s teens owning a mobile phone, you cannot afford to not be reaching out to them through it.

Mobile doesn’t hold all answers but it is the key to beginning to reach out to your teens. You may say that is not how your Church wants to communicate. But it is not your decision, it is theirs. And if you don’t make adjustments to how you communicate within your Church community you may find that that community is no longer there.
