Ep. 33 | Online Church: Engaging people online for the sake of the gospel w/ Zach Yaciw
In March 2020 we all found ourselves rapidly pivoting to online forms of ministry. At first it was just our church services, but as the pandemic stretched on, we saw more and more creativity in how churches found ways to run their ministries in digital ways.
So what do we do now? As we get closer to the finish line of Covid, we find ourselves having to ask questions about what place these online platforms have going forward. We know that we can’t really go back and that online ministry is here to stay in some form, but what does that actually look like?
In this episode, Jessica Powell from our Church Management Solutions team spoke with Zach Yaciw, the Pastor of Village Online at Village Church. You’ll get to hear him share his passion for engaging people in gospel-centered community, how they’re finding ways to do that authentically online, and the ways in which online church has enabled them to reach people with the gospel all over the world in ways that never would have been possible before.
