Abstract

In my studies within the course of Technology in Ministry, I was encouraged to use and promote the use of technology as a valuable means to proclaim the Good News to people where they are. In the “spirit” of Vatican II, the Church reaches out to her sons and daughters, especially the young, in an effort to make practical use of technology. Social media specifically comes into question when considering the use of high-tech communication to proclaim the Word. If we hold that the beauty of the feet of those who bring good news to the world from village to village is always a matter of significant value through the ages, how about the beauty of the hands and eyes of those who proclaim the Gospel of God through the use of this now ubiquitous technology? Can we indeed go so far as to state that the internet might be a divine gift, a means by which evangelization is made somehow more efficient and effective in the modern world?
