Missiology & Strategic Alliances for Media Outreach

At the Lausanne Global Consultation on Media and the Gospel in November 2013, Phill Butler gave a presentation on the importance of strategic alliances and partnerships if we are to make effective use of the media in mission.

Phill presented statistics showing the tremendous interest in exploring Christianity through the Internet and mobile devices, with a focus on the Middle East. This is a great opportunity for media ministries, but it requires genuine partnership between ministries if we are to succeed. Without strategic alliances, we will encounter many difficulties.
