Years ago there was lots of chatter about online ministry. Is it effective? Is it “real” ministry? Can it look like and act like a traditional Church? Those are all good questions but, as Churches dig deep into online ministry the reality is online ministry is here to stay. It is effective. It is real and it is Church.
The question is, what exactly does online ministry look like at your Church. Is it just utilizing digital communications to reach people or is it fully using digital tools to reach as many people as possible with the mindset of mission work?
That is why Jeff Reed is joining me today. Jeff is a former Online Pastor who now leads up The Church Digital. The Church Digital gives you great support and help in using technology better so you can reach more people for Christ. So today, Jeff and I talk about the difference between digital communications
