This is the question we’re asking. Post-COVID we’ve learned a lot of what a church can look like digitally, but how do these lessons help the Church moving forward. You’ve heard us talk about digital expressions of church, but are these social media churches, zoom churches, even streamers doing church… are these opportunities viable?
What about the physical churches that are no longer financially viable. As we see potential recession and economical strains, is there potential for struggling physical churches to move digital for a season? What examples are we already seeing of struggling churches that are moving digital for the next season?
Leonardo Blair recently wrote a very detailed article on Digital Church Network, and how we’re supporting digital- and metaverse- churches. Curious what an outside perspective looks like for Digital and Metaverse churches? Let’s dig in with Leonardo from ChristianPost.com and see how people, today, are taking advantage of digital and metaverse churches.
