Using the Influence of New Media to Promote the Gospel

What are the dangers and opportunities of the sorts of “new media” that Anabaptist Perspectives uses? Editorial Director, Jaran Miller gave a conference presentation at REACH 2025. Media forms like podcasts and online video make publishing accessible and affordable to anyone. This can be used for the kingdom. At the same time the accompanying  decline of institutions reduces accountability, makes it easier to listen only to those influencers we like and can reduce the rigor and concern for truth. Jaran argues that we should seize the opportunities to access the world through new media and that our own rootedness in strong communities positions us for good editorial work as we share with the outside world.
