Episode 3

How has the concept of “church” evolved since the days of a shaky camera live-streaming from the back of the room? In this episode, hosts David Maples and Carla Green dive into one of the most transformational—and sometimes controversial—topics in modern ministry: the virtual church. They move beyond the simple idea of streaming a service to explore what it truly means to build an integrated online community. From the theological meaning of “Ecclesia” to the practical power of virtual small groups and interactive prayer, this conversation redefines the possibilities of digital ministry. Learn how to create a welcoming and engaging online presence that complements, rather than replaces, your physical gathering, ensuring your church’s mission and message reach people wherever they are.
