The Media Persona

Have you ever wondered how ministries like The Tide come up with a media strategy to reach people for Christ and to train disciples? Are you perhaps interested in tapping into media to help carry out the Great Commission in your own life? If so, here are some insights which may be helpful.

Traditional Versus Modern in Bhutan

Traditional is an apt description for Bhutan, and this is something that its people take pride in. Thimbu, the capital of Bhutan, does not have any traffic lights, and very few international corporate chains. Television and the Internet were not introduced until 1999. Agriculture, livestock, and forestry dominate the economy, and its colorful culture and traditions passed down the centuries remain prominent today.

Buddhism – The Final Frontier?

The Tide has gospel media outreach ministries in Thailand and Bhutan, broadcasting the Good News into heartlands of two of the main schools of Buddhism, Theravada and Vajrayana (Tibetan).

An Incredible Encounter with the Living God!
