Writing evangelistically
October 19th, 2007
God has commissioned us as Christians to share the Gospel. We are called to offer others the opportunity to experience a personal relationship with Him. Many people have responded to this command and have used their skills in writing to evangelize on our websites.
The task of sharing the Gospel with someone with no church background is harder than it seems. How do you communicate clearly with someone who has little or no understanding of the terms, concepts and characters which make up our faith?
In light of this, we’ve put together a list of the most common problems we find in articles submitted for non-Christians. We also included “before and after” examples where applicable.
I Corinthians 9:22,23 says, “When I am with those who are weak, I share their weakness, for I want to bring the weak to Christ. Yes, I try to find common ground with everyone, doing everything I can to save some. I do everything to spread the Good News and share in its blessings.” (NLT)
Changing the way you write can be a scary thing. Ask God to help you see your writing through the eyes your reader. He can take your personal evangelism to a new level of effectiveness.
Interactive Campaign Ideas
April 12th, 2007
Each month we will have our General Monthly Theme that will guide our Editorial team in choosing content.
We will also have an Interactive Campaign that will flow out of that theme and will invite our audience to talk to us.
As you think of monthly themes also think about what questions might flow out of that theme to engage our audience in dialogue with a mentor.
Here are some questions suggested from our Mentor Coordinator, Terry, based on issues that she has seen addressed by our mentors.
Do you feel isolated, hurt or afraid and have no one to talk to?
Are you struggling with anxiety? Do you experience panic attacks and afraid to face the day?
Are you lonely in your relationship and wish it was different?
Why is it hard to ask for help?
Is your spouse addicted to porn and you’re feeling lonely, islotated and unloved?
Are you feeling the regrets of having an abortion and need someone to talk to?
Do you struggle with the deep darkness of depression and find yourself without hope?
Are you facing an unwanted divorce or separation? Is your world coming to an end?
Is there life after divorce, abortion, sexual, physical or emotional abuse?
Thanks for your thoughts!

Our 18 month theme schedule is becoming smaller and smaller as time marches on (Can you believe we are thinking of July content already!!) So guess what time it is!!! It’s time for us to get our creative juices flowing and start thinking of themes and Interactive campaigns
What does our audience want to talk about the most? What do they care about? What is their felt need? All these questions are great questions to ask yourself as you think about our new themes and Interactive campaigns. I invite you to add your thoughts and feelings below and join in this great discussion.
Are you a movie fan?
February 5th, 2007
If catching a flick is your way to relax and unwind then we want to hear from you! TruthMedia has a new movie blog. Check it out at www.movies.thelife.com
The Movie blog’s purpose is to use movies and media to engage our culture in a discussion about life’s fundamental questions and ultimately create conversations of a spiritual nature.
We’re looking for those interested in commenting and posting on an occasional basis or as part of a team who will take on this unique challenge.
Movies provide a great platform to discuss ideas, values, challenges, faith and life.
Would you like to join the discussion? Let us know.
