Cultural trends do affect ministry. That is not to say we should give in to them or change the message of the Gospel one iota. But we should know the times and speak God’s truth lovingly and appropriately to people at their point of need or want.
 I believe the true front door of the church is now a church’s website. Most people – and especially adults under 50 – will not visit a church until they first check it out on the web. People do not check out the Yellow Pages anymore. They Google.
