Church tech is not new. The possibility that the utilization of innovation in the congregation is some way or another wrong, inadequate or extraordinary is a confusion. God's kin have constantly utilized innovation to encourage the kingdom. Maybe the perplexity comes in the meaning of innovation.
Innovation can be characterized as the utilization of logical information for pragmatic purposes or applications.
What Is Church Tech?
Church tech at that point can be characterized as the utilization of techniques, procedures or information to assist the objectives and mission of the congregation. Three incredible cases of the utilization of innovation are found in the Holy Bible:
Noah utilized mechanical procedures, techniques or information to manufacture the ark, with the end goal of protecting humankind.
David crushed Goliath with a slingshot, which in his day was a cutting edge weapon.
Solomon utilized the best innovation accessible to him, as stonecutters, woodworkers, silversmiths, and surveyors, to fabricate the sanctuary.
So immediately you can toss out the confusion that:
1."The church does not utilize Technology."
One of the best employments of innovation was the utilization of the printing press to mass create duplicates of the Holy Bible. Johannes Gutenberg, considered the creator of the printing press. utilized innovation to mass deliver books and rapidly spread learning in fifteenth century Europe. The Gutenburg Bible is an early utilization of chapel tech to spread the gospel.
2. "More established believers won't grasp innovation."
This is an accepted way of thinking construct to a great extent in light of suspicions. Is this not valid, as well as a review by Dunham and Company demonstrated that web based giving among those more than 65 was equivalent to that of those more youthful. Senior Americans have customarily been late adopters of innovation. Be that as it may, as per the Pew Research Center. Seniors are grasping innovation at an astounding rate. In 2013, 59% were web clients.
3. "Innovation will be our issue"
Innovation itself is not awful, but rather it additionally is not secure. It's all by they way it is connected. The issue comes when church tech turns into a substitute for human connection. Individuals and chapels require physical association and human connection for survival. Church tech ought to empower and improve, yet not supplant, the human piece of the congregation encounter.
4. "All innovations are made equivalent" and 5. "It doesn't cost anything."
In light of open source innovation, an expanding number of instruments and applications are accessible free or effortlessly.
This does not imply that there is not taken a toll required with the advancement and utilization of this innovation. By and large we don't understand the time, work, testing required with advancement, also support and updates.
Because you pay for something doesn't ensure a hearty innovation or convey more inalienable esteem or usefulness. Cost does not generally show worth. Tight church spending plans require an arrangement. That arrangement requires time and instruction, as well as frequently budgetary assets as well.
Church Tech Should Mean Enhancement, Not Replacement
Church tech can upgrade however ought not supplant great antiquated Christian association. Similarly as with anything, you ought to continue considering an arrangement and great stewardship.
