The Digital Church Surprise ft. Colin Toffelmire, Jeremy Duncan, Nikayla Reize & David Harvey

06/30/20 • 52 min

Most of us – even those of us who were critical of digital church expressions – now find ourselves preaching, leading worship, and maybe even administering the Eucharist online. Even though some have gone back to a building, they didn't go back to what they had before the pandemic. Digital church, it would seem, isn't going away anytime soon. Maybe ever. Many have explored the practicalities of this, but it's vital to think through this theologically. In this episode, I'm joined with Nikayla Reize, David Harvey, Jeremy Duncan and Colin Tofflemire to talk about what has surprised us about digital church, but also what this pandemic is revealing to us about ourselves and our practices.

We'll also explore some surprising ways in which these false imaginations get healed.
