To be able to reach such large number of people, you need to be present online.
Creating social media accounts for example Facebook and Twitter gives a platform whereby religious organizations can serve its congregation in various ways. Through this,the congregation can share their thoughts and insights. It can be used to announce social service events.
People nowadays use mobile phones to access religious texts such as ebooks. This is unlike the tradition whereby one would move around with a heavy book.
There are also Apps that can give members easy access to the Bible and other holy books such as Koran.Some religious leaders use such apps to carryout sermons.
Negatively, during sermons some people concentrate much on their mobile phones chatting on social media hence not listening to what the preacher says.You find them on their smartphones during church service.
The internet has contents such as ponography that may make someone lose good morals.
