Media and Technology in Ministry (BC-314)

Discover how to leverage digital media, technology, and social platforms to reach people and serve effectively in contemporary ministry.

About This Course

The world we live in is driven by media and technology. Local churches and Christian ministries cannot afford to ignore the opportunities presented by digital media to reach and serve people. In this course, we present current practices drawn from APC's work and other resources on how to leverage these tools.

"The objective of this course is to provide exposure to current opportunities, tools, and platforms available and how these can be leveraged for Christian ministry."

Students are not expected to have prior training in media and technology and will not be tested for technical knowledge. The focus is on exposure and understanding how to apply these tools in a ministry context.
