THE NEGATIVE TREND CONTINUES IN 2022, AS ....
post-COVID churches are closing quicker than we can open them. In this decrease season, it is important for our churches to multiply… even more so in digital space! Our digital and metaverse churches need to multiply to better capitalize on the opportunities available to reach a different type of person.
And, as Eric Metcalf says,
This is why it is so important for our digital and metaverse churches to have apprentices

How do we multiply?
What does apprenticing look like in digital and metaverse spaces? Let’s dig in with Eric Metcalf and find out here on The Church Digital Podcast.
