+Noise

Noise occurs when individual departments or ministries within your church or organization setup their own social media accounts or even websites.

What happens if you have a disgruntled employee leave? Does someone else have access to those accounts?

Noise leaving your audience confused as to where they should get the latest news and events of your church or organization.

+Misrepresentation

There is a legal term called ‘Agency‘. Agency implies that an individual is authorized to act or to make statements on behalf of your church or organization.

The basic rule is that the employer (principle) becomes responsible for the acts of the employee (agent) and the employee’s acts are like those of the employer.

When there is a problem, factual questions arise such as, “ Was the employee in the scope of employment when the problem occurred?”

How easy is it to distinguish social media accounts managed by the church versus those setup by members or even those setup by staff for personal use?

+Taxation

Churches and non-profits, which fall under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code, cannot participate or intervene in any political activity or campaign  (i.e. give any hint of favoring one candidate over another). 

According toRevenue Ruling 2007-41, 2007-25 I.R.B. 1421 (June 18,2007) (page 10-11), participation or intervention may include but is not limited to  linking to other websites containing political content that you may or may not have any control over.
