Elder Ballard Promotes Blogging to share the Gospel

"This is your world, the world of the future, with inventions undreamed of that will come in your lifetime as they have in mine. How will you use these marvelous inventions? More to the point, how will you use them to further the work of the Lord? The Internet allows everyone to be a publisher, to have their voice heard, and it is revolutionizing society. The emergence of New Media is facilitating a world-wide conversation on almost every subject including religion, and nearly everyone can participate. May I ask that you join the conversation by participating on the Internet, particularly the New Media, to share the gospel and to explain in simple, clear terms the message of the Restoration. Most of you already know that if you have access to the Internet you can start a blog in minutes and begin sharing what you know to be true." -Elder M. Russell Ballard
