Evangelisation begins not with outcomes but with encounter. Christ first draws near, listens and asks, “What are you looking for?” Our digital presence should reflect the same missionary logic.

[Daniel Ang @DanielAngRC]

Every evangelising communication should invite a next step: awareness, engagement, formation, participation, and ultimately mission. Discipleship grows through a series of meaningful encounters.

[Daniel Ang @DanielAngRC]

The Gospel entered the communication networks of every age - from roads and letters to printing presses and broadcast media. Our digital age is no exception. Mission calls us to engage it with wisdom and courage.

[Daniel Ang @DanielAngRC]

Communication at its best is not manipulation or persuasion. It is helping something true, good and meaningful to be seen, recognised and received. That insight is as relevant to evangelisation as it is to media https://t.co/92Bk2o1eIW

Pope Leo XIV appoints EWTN News President to lead Vatican communications department https://t.co/rgH47UBiRc

@ApexSeeker_ It places emphasis on social harmony, conformity, which can make expression of emotions or personal identity difficult. Though loneliness is complex with more than one cause, I think gap between public role and private self leaves individuals feeling disconnected and unsupported.

“This is a chance to come together, to be renewed ourselves, to be equipped to go out”. Joining Sr Susanna will be Marcel LeJeune, whose work building missionary disciples on American university campuses has become a reference point for Catholic renewal.

A parish can have excellent liturgy, strong ministries, beautiful programs. But if nobody outside the existing community knows it exists, the journey to belonging never begins. Evangelisation isn't marketing faith. It's about removing obstacles to encounter
& making invitations

[Daniel Ang @DanielAngRC]

Many ppl search for meaning long before they ever enter a church. Their first encounter with faith is often a screen, podcast, video, or search bar. The mission field hasn't disappeared but expanded. The digital world isn't replacing evangelisation; it's becoming its front door.

@GeogheganClara Clearly the sarcasm was not strong enough

[Daniel Ang @DanielAngRC]

Meet your new irregular bishops. Many people are saying the SSPX is the greatest, truest Church ever known. And they’re incredible bishops. Not technically in communion, but maybe that’s what makes them strong, who knows? Nobody does tradition better. Believe me. Nobody.

[Daniel Ang @DanielAngRC]

Technology is at its best when it amplifies what is most human: our capacity for relationship, wonder, compassion, and truth. Every digital strategy should begin with a simple question: does this help people flourish as persons?

[Daniel Ang @DanielAngRC]

Digital evangelisation is not about chasing algorithms, building audiences, or winning attention. It is about creating opportunities for encounter. The measure of success is not reach alone, but whether people are drawn closer to Christ and authentic community.

“To speak of God to a human being is not to speak of colours to the blind” - Fr Jules Lebreton (1873–1956)

[Pope Leo XIV @Pontifex]

Artificial intelligences do not undergo experiences, do not possess a body, do not feel joy or pain, do not mature through relationships, and do not know from within what love, work, friendship or responsibility mean. Nor do they have a moral conscience, since they do not judge good and evil, grasp the ultimate meaning of situations, or bear responsibility for consequences. They may imitate or even simulate, but they do not understand what they produce, for they lack the affective, relational, and spiritual perspective through which human beings grow in wisdom. #MagnificaHumanitas

[Daniel Ang @DanielAngRC]

On Magnifica Humanitas and its implications for digital evangelisation by the Church. We are called to communication whose end is not managing perception but inviting encounter; not focused on institutional presence but guiding people toward Christ: https://t.co/UQgCMVp2Qz

[Daniel Ang @DanielAngRC]

With his new encyclical Magnifica Humanitas, the pope once again positions the papacy at the centre of humanity’s moral conversation, stewarding not only the Catholic faith but the ethical direction of modern civilisation

A profound joy to witness the installation of Bishop Danny Meagher as the eleventh Bishop of Rockhampton at St Joseph’s Cathedral, a prayerful and hope-filled celebration marked by warmth, welcome, and a deep sense of unity in the life of the Church.

“Didn’t I just write an entire encyclical about this tech stuff?”
