The Pocket Pulpit Podcast is an exploration in social media ministry. What is it? Who can do it? How do you do it? Are there best practices? Can you do it poorly? All this and more as we explore together and invite some friends along for the ride!

Today, Sarah and Hector talk with @kateboyd about Instagram Reels, stepping forward in teaching right where you are at, and dancing in dumpster fires.

Last week we talked about being Raised by God to stay in the church, and this week we are exploring what it looks like when you have left, are looking to leave, but want to hold onto Jesus. What does it look like in the Wilderness? Jenai Auman leads the Wilderness Forum to build community for those who have left after spiritual abuse and are navigating spiritual and religious trauma. We sit to talk about how the internet has helped to make space to belong when the physical church is still hard to be a part of. Find your hosts on Twitter!
