This leaves a great mission field in cyberspace, saycontributors to The New Media Frontier, because the latestforms of communication present so many opportunities to promote thecause of Christ in other topics and fields. Before blindly jumpingin, however, Christians need to weigh the possibilities against theconsequences, and then proceed with the practical discernment andgrace this book provides.
