GBC's Website: Connecting with our community and beyond

In Acts, we’ve been studying about how the gospel went out to all the world. Today, we’re called to bring this same gospel to the nations today, but we clearly live in different times from the early church. Technology has made our world seem smaller, and communication methods have changed.

The church has always used technology to get the gospel out. Paul wrote letters circulated along the Roman postal route, the advent of the printing press helped the spread of the Reformation, and modern industrialisation and trains, ships and planes helped missionaries reach all the nations. Today, the Internet offers the possibility of the church reaching, communicating and connecting with the world. 

gbc website who uses it GBC hopes to use technology and social media to communicate and connect with those inside and outside the church. Did you know that our church website averages 1500 users monthly, with an average of 10,000 page views per month? Many new visitors have begun to visit GBC because they found us online. What’s more surprising is that our users are also from different parts of the world, including the USA, Australia, Malaysia and India.

As a church then, how can we continue to use technology? What is in our website and what can we use it for?

  • Podcasts: Our sermons can be downloaded as podcasts from iTunes (or your RSS feed). This is great for those that happen to miss the service because they’re serving, or travelling. Listen to the sermon in the week and meditate on it. Also consider sharing it with your friends!
  • Blog: Articles on church life and Christian discipleship are curated on our blog. These articles help provide an idea of the work of the different ministries. Our pastors also write weekly articles and share their reflections as part of Grace eNews.
  • Social media: Not only do we have a website, GBC also has a Facebook, YouTube, Vimeo and Twitter account. These platforms serve to get information out so we can continue to stay connected in the week.
  • Resources: Need resources for Christian growth and discipling? The various materials from our Discipleship Seminars and Care Group ministry are hosted on our site. Additional materials (e.g. books, videos, articles) can also be found on the website too.
  • Information for visitors: All the key information about GBC can be found online. This includes service timings, what we believe, who our leaders are, and what visitors can expect on a Sunday service. Send these to your friends when you invite them to GBC!

gbc website what do we have

 As a church, we strive to be faithful to the command to bring the gospel to those around us. But while the content and message remains unchanged, we can also be creative and use technology to engage the world, build our community and help each other grow.
