Ten Ways To Encourage Someone Without Using Technology

1/30/2021

Simply looking at my smartphone screen can open up a world of possibility. My smartphone can recognize my facial features, react by opening the device, and then I proceed with sending an email, text message, DM, tweet, and so much more. My smartphone device has many wonderful productive and communicative features that I use on a daily basis. 

On the other hand, using a screen and keyboard is not the only way I communicate to those God has called me to lead. There are alternative methods of communication without using technology. Most often, I aim to encourage others without using technology and there is an assortment of ways you can encourage those you lead without using technology. 

I have listed 10 ways to encourage someone without using technology below.
While we can use technology to communicate with one another, communicating with one another does not always have to be in the form of technology. Read through the list and add to the list by sharing the various ways you communicate with those you lead. 

  1. Write a handwritten note and send it in the mail. 
  2. Using the dry erase board in a Sunday School classroom, write a note letting the class know that you were praying for them. 
  3. Leave a sticky note on the desk of a staff member letting them know you are thankful for their ministry. 
  4. Invite a family out for lunch after church one Sunday and pay for their meal. 
  5. Hand write a note and leave it in the Sunday School teacher's guide letting them know that you are thankful for their ministry. 
  6. Make an in-person visit to a member or visitor. During Covid-19 restrictions, make a drive-by visit (knock on their door and step back, visit with them briefly from a distance).  
  7. Offer to pray a prayer of blessing over a Sunday School class before the lesson begins. 
  8. Select a random Sunday and stand with the greeters at the entrance and welcome members/guests as they arrive at the Sunday gathering. 
  9. Write a handwritten note and place it in each Sunday School enrollment binder, letting each class know they are prayed for. 
  10. Invite a ministry volunteer out for lunch and ask for their thoughts on how the ministry is going and ways the ministry can improve. Then spend the time together listening to their thoughts and ideas.

Leadership in Ministry seeks to serve local churches and ministries. One way we aspire to serve local churches and ministries is by delivering resources. Download the "February Social Media Graphics" zip file below to access graphics that are designed to point people toward the love of God.   

With over 2.7 billion users worldwide on Facebook and 854 million Instagram users worldwide, social media platforms are modern tools to broadcast the message of the Gospel. Using images that are taken from the English Standard Version, these verse can be posted on your personal page, church page, or ministry page. 

Once the image is posted, use the opportunity to engage your audience. Share more about the love of Jesus in the description section of the social media platform. Ask a question like "How have you experienced God's love in your life?" and lead your audience to write in the comment section their answers. 

Let us know in the comments below how you utilized these resources for the glory of God.
