Thanks for your kind words. I'm so glad you came across this blog post. I too was so overwhelmed by marketing. But when I began to see it as a tool the Lord could use, I embraced it. It's the world we live in. I hope the Bible study program goes well for you. Feel free to contact me and let me know. God bless!

I’m so glad I came across your blog post—you have taught me a lot that I know will help my own marketing endeavors.

A great Biblical perspective on marketing. We must encourage others and be generous in our promoting others. Love it.

Digital generosity is another way Christians reflect the character of Christ online.

Here's a version of the ABCs of digital generosity written about a year ago – wrapped in more biblical truth: http://stickyjesus.com/2011/09/the-abcs-of-digita…

You can tell I am passionate about of this particular conversation.

Well done Pastor Dave, thanks for highlighting God's plan in this space and place.

Blessings to you!

And you've demonstrated that here by generously giving of your time and wisdom in this guest post. Thanks!

Some other ways I've tried to be generous online include:

– listening to my friends/followers & responding to them
– retweeting/sharing other people's content
– allowing people to republish content from our blog at no cost (with permission)
– donating to support missions trips and other causes
– blogging to help with book launches

Looking forward to seeing other generosity ideas people post.
