The session includes input by Dr Craig Mitchell, a presentation by the host church about the “why” and “how” of their online presence, and peer conversation. Craig has studied and taught in the area of digital communication, and has worked with churches on developing their online presence. He has a particular interest in discipleship formation in a digital world.
Cost: $10 per person per session. Maximum $40 per congregation per session.
An outline of our first session in May is here. We had people from nine congregations registered, seven of which are currently offering some form of worship online. Every two months we will meet at a church which is streaming a worship service, hear about the ‘why’ and ‘how’ (aims and approach) and see the ‘what and how’ (tech).
Further sessions are to be held in September and November.
