Even God wants you to blog.
Pope Benedict XVI has a message for priests of the Catholic Church: they must proclaim the gospel by not only having a website, but by blogging and utilizing new web communication tools.
The 265th Pope of the Catholic Church has been an unexpectedly strong proponent of social media. Last year, he launched a YouTube channel, and six months ago, he released Facebook and iPhone apps to spread the Church’s message. It looks like that he hopes Catholic priests will follow his digital example. -Mashable
You can read more of his message here. This might not seem like a big deal but if the Catholic Church is embracing social media you better believe they will use it to try and sway public opinion on progressive issues like gay marriage and birth control. If your non profit is working on issues that the Catholic Church is against, I would suggest setting up listening campaigns on faith based social networks to see what the chatter is like and anticipate what kind of arguments you’re going to be facing in the near future.
