Make Jesus Famous!

8 July 2009

Make Jesus Famous is a new microsite which Church Army has recently launched. The Make Jesus Famous campaign is designed to encourage young Christians in particular to inspire their brothers and sisters to share the Gospel by uploading their ideas to www.makejesusfamous.org.uk.

Christians are being asked to sign up to the website, and then submit their ideas for sharing faith and upload an image of themselves (or an image of what Jesus means to them). The idea can be something tried and tested, or one that is being planned for a future date. Make Jesus Famous is also designed to attract comments from other members, which will help refine ideas and encourage members in their evangelism. Members are also able to return to the site at any time and update everyone on how their idea is progressing.

Richard Chambers, Church Army's Communications Officer, says: "Jesus' approach to His followers was to encourage them to be radical and inventive, and to share their experiences with one another. Make Jesus Famous is looking to get this generation of Christians to inspire one another to share their faith wherever they live. So whatever you are doing - or plan to do in the near future - we want to hear your ideas! Anyone who registers for Make Jesus Famous will be helping to build an ever-growing evangelism resource, which will harness the amazing Christian creativity that is already out there."

Church Army will be promoting Make Jesus Famous alongside its other projects at various events this summer: New Wine Ireland, Soul Survivor and Greenbelt.
