In terms of digital technology, natives are very tech-savvy, but they are also experiencing a spiritual shift.

This research aims to make church leaders aware of the importance of digital media as an outreach tool to the generation of digital natives. This research uses a qualitative method with a phenomenological approach that analyzes data from the existing literature. As a result, social media heavily influence digital natives. The church needs to understand the digital strategy to meet their needs and reach them in our digital contemporary cultural context. Research Contribution: This research helps readers see how churches can be present in virtual spaces to reach digital natives. This approach develops social media as the dynamics of carrying out missions in the digital space and utilizes technology as a support system to transmit the relevant Gospel of Christ in the digital era.
