Help! I need to be Found.
I remember when I was about 8 yrs old. I was walking in the downtown of the city that I grew up near. It was some sort of huge gathering. People everywhere. I wasn’t paying attention (even though this was clearly in a time I wasn’t preoccupied with a texting or game device). I just kept wandering until I remember that sickly feeling when I “snapped” into reality and couldn’t find my parents or my siblings.
I remember suppressing the urge to yell, “Help! I need to be Found!”
I walked for what seemed an eternity, each step that passed made me feel like I was going to burst. No matter what I did, how fast I walked, or how much I strained to see over the crowd, I couldn’t discover or be discovered by my family.
I was lost.
Strangely, many local churches are lost too. The Place that seeks and finds. There’s lots of people; but no one cares about the Church.
The predicament:
- The Church has an intensely important message to tell.
- They’re lost in a world of websites and companies offering “tangible” help.
- The Church has a bad rap. Public perception is working against the institution.
Some solutions:
- The Church needs to figure out a clear “benefit” message.
- They need to take on the negative perception head on. And start some good press.
- They need to practice good SEO practices. To be found on the internet.
There was little way I could become found by myself. Thanks to the police officer who helped me (quite easily); I was found by my parents.
