In the next few weeks I want to share some ideas for
having spiritual conversations with your friends on V Kontakte and Facebook and
for how you can easily expose your entire campus (or expose all students in
your city or region) to the gospel. Much
of what I will suggest is connected to our evangelistic site,
mirstudentov.com /everystudentcom . In case you are
unfamiliar with that site I would suggest that you check it out. Below is part of a blog I sent out in 2009
which gives an overview of this site:
www.mirstudentov.com (www.everystudent.com) is an evangelistic
website hosted by New Life/Campus Crusade for Christ. It is a place where non-believing students
can go to ask questions about God. New
Life/Campus Crusade for Christ staff immediately get back to the students with
answers to their questions. Also on the
site are a number of articles non-believers are generally interested in on
various topics which prayerfully lead students to consider the spiritual impact
of these topics in their lives.
Ninety-nine point
five (99,5) percent of the students on your campus are not believers. That’s an overwhelming number. Most of them will never have a friendship
with a believer who can help them to know more about having a personal
relationship with Christ. www.mirstudentov.com (www.everystudent.com) is one easy
strategy to easily expose a large number of non-believers to Jesus.
Some ways you could
use www.mirstudentov.com (www.everystudent.com):
o
print up
some posters and place around your campus every day. Don’t get discouraged if the posters don’t
stay up for very long, just make it a plan to put up a new poster every day as
you go to class.
o
if you
live in a dormitory make a big sign to put on the door to your room or in your
window advertising the site.
o
if you use
в контакте or Facebook to connect
with nonbelievers, this is a great link to send your friends to as well.
In order to make
the gospel known to all the students on your campus you will have to use a
variety of strategies – some relational strategies (such as CoJourners)
help you help those close to you understand about salvation. Other strategies (such as www.mirstudentov.com / www.everystudent.com) help you “sow
broadly” to those with whom you will never have personal conversations. I think this website could be a great help to
you in connecting nonbelievers with others who could help to direct them to
Christ. And it’s easy!
