With the Covid-19 Pandemic worship has been thrust online into the digital world of social media. In this space there are expectations of connection, engagement and relationship building. In a physical space handshakes, connection cards and welcome desks help facilitate all this. What is that like online?
Many have compared the transition of worship inside a building to worship online to the transition from live theater to film. At first, film was a stationary camera recording the performers but soon that developed and the camera moved –it explored new angles and captured close ups and as a result a whole new way to experience acting emerged.
How is this new expression of worship changing the worship experience for your church? How are people who discover you online experiencing “church?” Are they connecting? Are they engaging?
