The Rev. Jim Keat sat down with Rev. Phil Dieke to discuss the move from fully virtual, back to in person, AND how hybrid will play a role in this transition, but will never go away... at least they hope not. They talk the future of the church, where things could be and hopefully are going. And, they discuss how to carry the momentum that was built in digital spaces into this next phase.
Jim is the Digital Minister at Riverside Church in New York City, though he lives in Michigan with his family, hence the idea of being a digital minister. He also serves as the Director of Online Innovations at Convergence. Find out more about his work with Convergence and The Online Church Conference he'll be hosting June 9-10 here:

Friends, this may be our last Sunday Sit Down, at least in this format. Jim and Phil talk a bit about what could be coming next. In the meantime, if you have thoughts, ideas, or questions about Online Church we would love to hear them. Email Phil at pdieke@wrumc.org.
