Digital Ministry and Leadership in Today’s Church

A Webinar for Pastors, Faith Formation Leaders, and Ministry Leaders

This webinar introduces the key themes and practices in the new book written by a team of experienced leaders who bring years of experience in utilizing digital tools, methods, and media in church life and especially faith formation. The Digital Ministry and Leadership book and webinar will provide you with practical ways to (1) bring digital approaches, tools, methods, and media into church ministries (worship, faith formation and learning, prayer, spiritual formation) and (2) extend the ministry of the local church into online spaces and communities where more and more people gather to nurture, explore, and share their faith today.

Deanna Bartalini and Claudia McIvor, authors of “Community and Relationship Building in Virtual Spaces,” provide practical ideas for using social media platforms to build relationships, share life and faith experiences, pray for people, celebrate special milestones, and more.

Bill Miller and John Roberto, authors of “Leadership for Digital Ministry,” describe the competencies for digitally integrated ministry and faith formation and the enduring, foundational competencies for effective pastoral leadership in every age and era.

Marge Babcock, author of “Curation of Digital Media for Ministry and Faith Formation,” provides ideas for developing the skills and processes for curating digital media and resources.

Tim Welch, author of “Digital Tools and Methods for Ministry and Faith Formation,” provides ideas for using digital tools to create websites, short videos, graphics, livestreaming, and online meetings

John Roberto, author of “Faith Formation in the Digital Age,” presents ideas for developing hybrid and online-only faith formation using the skills and tools presented in the book.

No matter your level of confidence, comfort, and competency in digital ministry, the webinar and book will provide you with ideas, strategies, and next steps for you and for your church community.
