Content Creation Secrets for Online Christian writers

It has been generally agreed upon that content is king. We need to generate gospel content that can bring the needed transformation in the lives of people. The content could be in texts format, audio and audiovisuals. Our responsibility is to make our social media platforms a sort of pulpit where people can regularly have access to life changing words. In creating contents for online Christian writing, consider the following instructions.

Spirit-based

Allow the Holy Spirit to minister to your heart. Get the message directly from God. This becomes possible as you seek God in prayer. The Lord wants to reach people online. Don’t give a message from your brain and expect transformation. Allow God to speak to you. Do you remember that hymn that says: Lord, speak to me that I may speak?

Scripture-based

Get deep into God’s word. Read to bless your soul and share with others as God leads you. Study God’s word and teach others those things that you’ve learnt. Share devotionals and texts of messages that are very impactful.

Story-based

Weave your writings with a story. Everyone loves a story. Jesus used parables a lot during His earthly ministry. So, engage people with stories to get their attention and also to present them with examples they can learn from.

Social-based

We are social beings. Therefore, we need to be very conscious of events that happen around us (especially in the political space). We need to show concern for the plight of people. We cannot feel unconcerned. We should lend our voice and advice where necessary on social matters. We should speak up for human rights but we should do it in a civilized and biblical manner. We also need to be conscious of people’s needs and try our best to meet them via online ministry.

Sectional-based

Reach a particular set of people at a time. Have a target audience. It could be an age group, people in a certain career, married or singles etc. Streamlining your posts to a specific audience helps you to be focused and more fruitful. It is much better than attempting to reach people from all walks of life at once.
