The Great Commission never changes. God’s instructions to Christians are the same as they were two thousand years ago.
Matt 28:19-20
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
KJV
Our methods for applying the Great Commission change as our world changes. Music tastes are constantly changing. God continuously calls Christian musicians to write new music that reaches a lost world in current times.
Worship norms change as our world changes. As the work habits of each generation change, so do the appropriate times of day for worship. Multimedia is now a part of most worship services. God is calling many people to learn this skill for the work of the Great Commission.
Technology has changed the face of Corporate America. The web has made our world smaller. It should be no surprise to anyone that God is calling people of God into technology-based ministries.
Victor Blackshear is a man of God that is called by God to use the web to reach the world for Christ.
He graduated with a degree in finance and went directly to work as a financial project analyst. His work was impressive and it was not long before he had a better offer from another company. His income was growing and his financial future looked bright. He married and began a family. To the world, it seemed like “The American Dream” was coming true for them.
He began learning web technology. His employers recognized his talent and began to allow him to learn and apply it.
Victor is a Christian. He accepted Christ at age eighteen and seeks the will of God on a daily basis. He is very active in a local church.
He began to feel God’s urge to begin a media ministry. His calling is specifically to a website ministry. He feels called to help churches and other Christian businesses and organizations use the web to reach people for Christ.
He began an inspirational website that allows community churches to post events and reach more people for Jesus Christ through the web. You can visit this site at WWW.SEEKYE.NET.
The response has been incredible. He is having somewhere around 10,000 hits per month. Churches of all denominations are using his site.
For a while, he continued his job and worked with his ministry part time. His ministry was not getting the focused time it needed and he felt God was leading him into doing this full time. He stepped out on faith and began SeekYeMedia.com
SeekYeMedia.com is a business that builds affordable and appropriate websites for churches, Christian businesses, and other Christian organizations. You can learn more about it by going to www.SeekYeMedia.com. SeekYeMedia.com is how this young man of faith plans to support his family and fund his web ministry, SEEKYE.NET.
Victor is facing all of the issues that any small business faces. As with all small business, Victor’s income ebbs and flows. A small business owner has to be good at everything. In addition to his talent for building websites, he has to know how to sell, market, network, and keep good records. He has to be an accountant and understand cash flow. His wife Cheryl continues her job in an effort to keep a continuous income coming in for the family.
His client list is growing. His work is good and people spread the word about his talent. The websites he has built are very appropriate for the market they are reaching. This should not be surprising to anyone since God has called him to this work and these websites are prayed over. You can look at some of his work on his website.
He keeps his rates reasonable because he wants churches to be able to afford to use the web to reach the world for Christ.
Churches typically want to spend under $1,000 for their first website and they generally do not update it for at least a year. That means he has to be continuously “feeding the funnel” with new clients. Some clients use him to register with search engines and to manage the website content. That provides him with small on going revenues.
Praise God for knowing His world and calling ministers appropriate to every generation.
Praise God for people willing to hear the call of God and to respond with faith.
Please stop right now and pray for Victor and Cheryl. Pray for their wisdom as they seek God’s will for their lives.
Pray that Victor will love the Lord God with his entire mind and continue to learn what he needs to know to use technology to fulfill the Great Commissions.
Pray that Victor and Cheryl will continue to love God with all of their strength. Cheryl is working a full time job that helps support Victor’s ministry. They have a two-year-old son, Christopher. Cheryl’s calling is one that must keep her exhausted. Owning a small business is very hard work that requires long hours. Pray that Victor will have the strength that he needs to stay fresh and encouraged.
Pray that Victor and Cheryl will continue to love the Lord God with all of their heart as they remember how blessed they are to be called to God’s fulltime work. Pray that their hearts will remain tender as they are faced with Satan’s roadblocks to God’s work. Pray for their tender love as a couple as they keep their hearts open to God’s leadings.
Pray that they will continue to love God with all of their souls. A Godly soul hears God and responds. A Godly soul needs tenacity. God’s work is often a difficult path. Pray that they will not get discouraged.
Luke 10:27
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbor as yourself.'"
(from New International Version)
