Simply looking at my smartphone screen can open up a world of possibilities. My smartphone can recognize my facial features and react by opening the device. Then send an email, text message, DM, tweet, and more. My smartphone device has many excellent productive and communicative features that I use daily. 

On the other hand, using a screen and keyboard is not the only way I communicate with 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 ten 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 you were praying for them. 
  3. Leave a sticky note on a staff member's desk letting them know you are thankful for their ministry. 
  4. Invite a family for lunch after church one Sunday and pay for their meal. 
  5. Handwrite a note and leave it in the Sunday School teacher's guide letting, them know you are thankful for their ministry. 
  6. Make an in-person visit to a member or visitor. 
  7. Offer to pray over a Sunday School class before the lesson begins. 
  8. Select a random Sunday, stand with the greeters at the entrance and welcome members/guests as they arrive at the Sunday gathering. 
  9. Write a handwritten note, place it in each Sunday School enrollment binder, and let each class know you pray for them. 
  10. Invite a ministry volunteer for lunch and ask their thoughts on how the ministry is going and how it can improve. Then spend the time together listening to their thoughts and ideas.  ​
