Starting a Blog for Evangelism or Ministry

At Evangelism Software we want to help you use blogging software to impact the Kingdom of God. When you are ready to start your blog you need to consider your options. Some of the first decisions you need to make is what your blog will be about. Will you be creating a blog for ministry or a blog for evangelism? Will you use one of the free blog options for your blog or will it make more sense for you to get a domain name and web host? I want to encourage you to do a little research before you answer these questions. Here are some links to some helpful articles on MyNewbieBlog.com that will help you make these decisions. First read “Create a Blog You Can be Proud Of“. Then read “More on Starting Free Blogs“. These article should help you with your decision about using a free blog service or getting a domain name and web host. My advice would be to get a domain name and web host because it allows the most flexibility for your blog. The cost of this type of blog/website is about $90 (Ninety dollars) a year and I think is worth it. I use GoodNewsDomains.com for my domain names and web hosting. I would encourage you to read the articles on MyNewbieBlog about how to create a blog. My Newbie Blog is a good example of an evangelism blog. The site is about a popular topic and is not overtly Christian in its content. I hope to build relationships and then over time present my faith in non-threatening ways. I would also encourage you to read the articles at Church Growth Consulting for ideas about ministry blogs. Take some time to get your questions answered and then get ready to jump into the blogosphere.

  1. You have very good and noble intention.

    I totally agree with you that the only and best way to spread the good news is to build good relationship first — and a blog is a good way to achieve that. Why because a prophet is never accepted in his own home town.

    With a blog and by blogging you can reach people all over the world and if the Lord is with you, His blessing will flow forth from your blog.

    God bless.
