November is often a month associated with being thankful. We give thank for the different blessings in our lives as we spend time with friends and family. While we give thanks, it can sometimes be hard keeping up-to-date on all the new digital and online ministry trends and happenings. That is where The Church Digital Podcast Network and Blogs comes in and helps. They strive to keep you updated on all the latest trends in social media, live stream, digital discipleship and all things online ministry so that you can minister and serve your online community more effectively.
Here are 5 Online Ministry insights and lessons learned from some of the podcasts released on The Church Digital Podcast Network and the blog from November 2023
