Publisher's Description
The author challenges believers to creatively and effectively use leading-edge technology to reach the "Net Generation
Author: Andrew Careaga Located in: Rolla, Missouri Submitted: February 10, 2001
Tell us a little about yourself. I'm a volunteer youth pastor and a writer who
enjoys playing on the Internet. "eMinistry" is my
second book about the Internet and Christianity.
My first book is "E-vangelism: Sharing the Gospel
in Cyberspace," published in 1999.
What was your motivation behind this project? I wrote "eMinistry" because of my interests in
youth ministry and the Internet, and because I
saw the need for a book that addresses the
opportunities Christians have to minister to Net-
savvy teens.
What do you hope folks will gain from this project? My hope is that readers of "eMinistry" will gain
a better understanding of how the Internet and
other digital technologies influence the way
young people process information, think about
spiritual matters, and share their faith. I also
hope readers will gain a better appreciation for
the many wonderful Christian resources available
online.
Who are your influences, sources of inspiration or favorite authors / artists? I have several influences. C.S. Lewis, Brennan
Mannning, Philip Yancey, Leonard Sweet and Bob
Briner are perhaps the most influential Christian
writers in my life.
Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: "eMinistry" is my challenge to Christians to
creatively use technology to reach the "Net
Generation." God bless all who enter this new
virtual mission field to share the gospel!
