Creating community is really important in ministry. Whether you are in a physical space or online space, Churches are always striving to build community. It is what helps people grow in their faith. Also, Churches value is the ability to create content. They create so much content. For instance, a sermon or message has so much valuable content that you can use in a variety of ways.
Enter Chris Norris. Chris is an Online Pastor at McLane Church and Social Media Consultant in Erie, Pa. He is constantly thinking of content he can create and how to engage people so that he can build community online.
That is the heart of today’s podcast. In it we talk about how you can create community around a sermon or topic. Facebook Groups and doing Facebook Live is definitely a big part of this conversation as well as how you can do this in a multisite Campus setting.
ACTION STEPS:
- Share your thoughts! How do you create community with the content you create? Does some work better than others?
