According to AVG, the Internet security firm, nearly 92% of children in the U.S have some type of online presence by the time they reach just 2 years of age. The young children either show up in articles and pictures in their mothers social net page or they have their very own site.
We are seeing the rise of a new phenomenon with the lives of people receiving full documentation on the Internet from the time they are born and even before.
Over a billion folks around the world are participating in Facebook alone not to mention Twitter and others.
My wife and nearly all of the grandparents we know have pictures of their grandchildren online. With this new group of kids growing up we could be looking at the first generation that is fully represented and documented on the Internet ‘from cradle to grave’?
The gospel needs to reach that generation and what better way than to use the very online instruments and tools that are now so part of the modern human experience.
