Technology and the Gospel

President Hinckley added to his powerful, emotional witness a list of concerns for the future. One of his concerns particularly stuck in my mind. His worry was that with the great growth of the Church throughout the world, it would become increasingly difficult for the Apostles to reach all the members of the Church and personally admonish them to live the gospel. Thus, the future would bring greater reliance on technology to carry the gospel message to the worldwide Church.” (Elder L. Tom Perry, Ensign, May 2000)

It seems to me that not only will be more difficult for the Apostles to reach all the members of the Church, but it will be almost impossible to reach all the people who live on the earth with the message of the Restored Gospel. Our testimonies need to be heard by millions and I have no doubt that the Internet is one of the most powerful way to do it. People will still need to talk with the missionaries of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Mormon Church) and being baptized but many people may receive their testimony by reading good things on the Internet and this will speed up the work and allow those who are interested to find the Mormon missionaries instead than having the missionaries do all the work.

Consider creating your own blog and share your testimony online!
