Facebook Makes Better Pastors (by Bob Hostetler)

[James Nored]

I am really liking the new magazine "Rev!: Revving Up Ministry Together," Here are the 12 points that Bob Hostetler makes about Facebook from his artticle, "Facebook Makes Better Pastors."

1. Facebook helps me connect with more people
2. I send birthday greetings to church members who are on Facebook.
3. I'm in their loop.
4. I pray via Facebook.
5. Facebook makes me "normal."
6. Facebook helps me lead by example.
7. Faceboook helps me to learn names.
8. Facebook has increased my photo library of church life.
9. Facebook gets the word out.
10. Facebook encourages me and invites prayer for me.
11. Facebook makes me laugh.
12. Facebook makes me look "cooler" than I really am.

How do you think that Facebook helps in ministry?
