I want to expand your global perspective a little bit today. This church online commercial by my BlueDoor.tv partners in the Czech Republic is excellent (though it really makes me miss breakfast in Europe)! I think you’ll love it, too.
To learn more about this church, check out their website at http://www.tv7.cz/cirkev-online (use http://translate.google.com) if you want to read the content in your local language.
Today I turn 33. Few things make me as happy as giving something of value to people I love, and I love the Church. In light of that….
YOU GET A PLATFORM! AND YOU GET A PLATFORM!
AND YOU, YES YOU, GET A PLATFORM! WE ALL GET PLATFORMS!
It brings me great joy to announce today that my non-profit organization BlueDoor.tv is releasing a church online platform designed just for you, in your language. (Psst…it’s FREE!) Learn all the juicy details and apply to receive the platform here.
At BlueDoor.tv, we want to play a part in seeing the Gospel shared and hurting people ministered to in every corner of the world before Jesus returns. Join me in praying that entrepreneurial leaders in every country on earth would rise up to launch teams of passionate individuals committed to storming the gates of hell with the Truth online. (Apologies for the excessive use of prepositional phrases in that last sentence. It must be because I’M SO EXCITED!)
Best. Birthday. Ever!
Much love,
PS – I have a hunch you want to get on board with what BlueDoor.tv’s doing. To date we’ve helped churches in about 30 countries. Please tweet or post this news to your Facebook wall, then donate to our mission. We’re going to help launch online churches in every country by 2020. Let’s make a global impact together.
Tomorrow is my birthday and I am thrilled to share an exciting present from our non-profit organization to those of you around the world who want to minister online. It’s a brand new way BlueDoor.tv can fulfill it’s vision of Helping You Be the Church, Online.
Come back tomorrow to find out!
PS – And seriously, friends, don’t beg me to tell you. I’m so pumped about this that I can barely keep my lips zipped. 
…would you give me yours?
At BlueDoor.tv, we LOVE to serve churches everywhere. We’re looking at our recent surge of growth and identifying ways we can improve upon the services we provide and the methods we use to provide them.
Would you comment below and tell me how we can improve any of the services listed here?
* Partner Training (What’s missing? What’s confusing?)
* Partner Funding- provision of equipment necessary to launch an online church (How can we clarify this process?)
* Donor Communications (What inspires you to donate to BlueDoor.tv?)
* Newsletters/Social Media/Blog (Are you hearing enough? What would you like to know?)
Our vision is to launch online churches in every country by 2020, and we need your valuable input to get there. Many thanks!
Dana
I am thrilled to introduce you to Lisa, the newest member of the BlueDoor.tv family! As a result of the exciting growth in online ministry worldwide, we’re adding to our team so that we may better serve our existing partners and launch new online churches overseas more effectively. Many of you who contact us for information will likely get to know Lisa better. Here’s a brief introduction in her own words…
Happy Monday! What an incredible honor to post today on DanaByers.com! I have recently joined the staff of BlueDoor.tv as Dana’s Executive Assistant. I am so thankful every day that God has placed Dana in my life and that I am able to support her and this incredible ministry as they set out to bring the gospel to the ends of the earth! My family and I live outside of Charlotte, NC and are active members of our community.
It’s time to have an important discussion. Over the past 2 years I’ve heard an increasing number of pastors here and there mention their desire to connect online with the deaf community.
1) Is anyone doing this already?
2) If not, how do we do this?
3) Apart from adding subtitles to our messages, are there existing online communities for the deaf or Christian leaders in the deaf community who could lead this effort?
There’s a huge opportunity here to reach out to a population with whom many local churches don’t have or provide the resources to communicate. I don’t have many answers but want this to be a place to get the ball rolling. Chime in below with your information and suggestions!
Thank you,
I’m speaking next Tuesday, August 23 at the Ministry Resource Conference in Indianapolis. I have 5 FREE passes to send to the first people who send an email to Lisa.Zeeveld@bluedoor.tv.
MRC 2011 is touring several cities in the US, and next Tuesday’s event will feature sessions on Development, Leadership, Operations, Technology, Urban Outreach and many more…a total of more than 20. This event is designed to encourage and inspire ministry leaders to excel in spreading the Gospel message.
Know someone who could benefit from the Indy MRC? Details are available at http://www.ncpg.net/mrc. (Psst – come see me in Room B from 1:30-2:30pm for “Reaching Lost People Online”!)
Yesterday I had the privilege of presenting at The Blogference, a global online conference for ministry leaders. This conference was created by my local friend Brian Barela, the New Media Director at Cru (formerly known as Campus Crusade for Christ).
Check out my post (and the other great topics of discussion) here!
