The Most Influential Platform For Christian Voices

By Joseph Ross


Christians are called to impact their world positively. However, only a few have the chance to proclaim the principles of Christianity and participate in decision making. This leaves many yearning for a platform for Christian voices where they can be heard and their contribution make an impact on the world. Here is a look at some of the platforms where the voice of Christians can be heard.

Books have an incredible impact on the lives of readers. They inspire their lifestyles and thoughts in a lasting manner. By writing a book on principles taught in Christianity, people will read and have their lives transformed. There are numerous writing options including fiction, reflections, journals, memoirs and such other book categories.

Participate actively in professional groups. The public has a lot of faith in the words of professional groups. These groups also wield a lot of influence in governance. By participating actively, you have an opportunity assert Christian principles and ensure that they inform the decisions made at different points. These groups run from local to regional and international level. Rise up the ranks and take that position of influence.

Art has an incredible power of changing the world. It communicates in the most subtle way imaginable yet has a lasting impact. Consider a painting that is loaded with deep message hanging at a gallery or public space. Music is also another way for Christians to assert their influence. Photography and video production are other means to spread the message. Use these platforms to create a message that can be spread widely. Social media is there to promote your artistic creation.

Form and take part in discussions at focus groups. These discussions are under government and non-governmental organizations. They are formed to address issues that are bothering the society at different instances. They shape opinions and influence decisions made at crucial turning points in the life of the nation. Lending your expertise and opinion that is anchored in Christian principles will change circumstances at the decision making stage.

Blogging is now a wide spread way of asserting influence and communicating professional views. It is one way of building a profile for self without spending too much. Blog pages are free and range from websites to social media. You may even blog as a guest on public platforms. Blogging also gives you a chance to get feedback and in the process sharpen your insight.

There are publications that are open to receiving the voices of Christians as contributors. Nationally circulating publications will not hesitate to take an expertly crafted piece. You should also consider publications run by religious organizations where you can lend your expertise. Professional bodies also feature different persons and opinions in their internal or external publications. Since a lot of people want to offer their opinions on publications, you must have a captivating and unique one to be considered.

Lending your voice is one of the ways to play your role as a Christian in transforming the world. It would be unfortunate to miss the opportunity to be heard and allow the wrong voice to prevail. After all, it is said that the world goes wrong because of good people who remain silent.
