Praise Catalogue has released the list of finalists for the 2020 edition of the Digital Preachers Awards.

The awards is an annual ranking that seeks to celebrate Christian excellence in the digital space.

It is geared at inspiring and equipping the “Church” to communicate credibly, effectively, and powerfully as it continues to strive for excellence in preaching the uncompromising gospel of Jesus Christ digitally.

The award scheme is opened to Ghanaian residents only.

Nominations opened on 1st November 2020 and closed on 13th December 2020; which was followed by assessment and careful considerations by a team of experts for the '30 Most Influential Digital Preachers in Ghana'.

The panel of judges was made up of ministry and industry experts who independently scored the sites/social media pages of all nominations received according to a selection of general criteria and then specific criteria for each category.

After careful consideration 30 people were selected including 5 new entrants; Christian Vibe Gh, Theophilus Forson, Celestine Donkor, Moses Ok Ministries and Akesse Brempong.   

The criteria for selecting finalists include the number of followers, rate of engagement, number of people who grow spiritually following the preacher or institution, how personal the preacher gets with the audience, and how personal the preacher/institution gets with followers.

Details of scoring and selection criteria can be found on www.praisecatalogue.org.

Individuals, Organisations, and Ministries nominated themselves and others for the awards.
