getting started in Christian Media number one the right mindset when I first began to create videos on YouTube in September of 2007 all I knew was that I wanted to reach more people for the sake of the Gospel I was the cameraman the editor the preacher and the one who uploaded the videos sometimes when preaching at a church or Youth Camp I would enlist the help of a friend who would record me preaching I would then take the footage and spend hours learning to edit the PC software I use for editing would crash every 30 seconds

to 5 minutes so I had to painstakingly craft my videos while saving my progress after nearly every single edit when I would finally post the videos would get 20 30 100 and if I did really well maybe 300 views from September of 2007 to September of 2009 I gained a grand total of 20 subscribers that’s 10 a year less than one a month just about 11 years later I reached my first 100,000 subscribers and it took about 16 years in total to reach my first million subscribers but get this only about 9 months from then to reach

the next 600,000 and what took us our first 7 years to reach we now reach daily that’s what you call exponential growth or as one of my dear Pastor friends says gradually then s suddenly of course one has to ask do numbers matter and the answer is it depends why do you want numbers we can safely assume numbers matter to God a whole book of the Bible is called numbers but why why do numbers matter because numbers represent people and people need the truth of God’s word so so long as you give God the glory and

celebrate for the right reasons numbers can be exciting to watch grow don’t despise the day of Small Beginnings the Lord rejoices to see the work begin Jesus referred to the kingdom of God as a mustard seed that eventually grows to a great size giving the birds a place to Nest just because it begins small doesn’t mean it stays small just because it starts slow doesn’t mean the growth won’t accelerate gradually then suddenly don’t count yourself out just because you aren’t where someone else is this is a marathon not a Sprint
