Being the Church in the Virtual World
By Douglas Estes (Zondervan)
A 2010 Outreach Resource of the Year

 

“The Christian church is engaging far less than 1 percent of the 70 million people who are active in the virtual world. This means the virtual world is by far the largest unreached people group on planet earth.

It’s almost scandalous.’ We have great work to do.” Douglas Estes, from the book
