The Sidekick Podcast6 to Seek Out in 2022Since 2016 I have been highlighting 6 people you, as ministers, should follow on Social media. They are people/groups I've learned a lot from. You can find the previous years here: 2016, 2017 2018, 2019, 2020, and 2021.

The Sidekick Podcast6 to Seek Out in 2021What I love about social media is that every year I discover new people that I learn from and follow. Then, what I like to do is to share them with you all. In fact, I take 6 people or groups and highlight them once a year, usually at the end of December or early January. To find out my lists from previous years you can just like the year (2016, 2017 2018, 2019 and 2020).
While 2020 was challenging, the reality is, if you were following any of the digital ministers I have shared about in the past, like Ben Stapley, Dave Adamson, J...

DJ challenges me, regularly, and this conversation once again pushes the limits. As Lead Pastor of VR Church, DJ is stretching the boundaries of Avatar Church. Yes, Avatar Church.

The Church Digital PodcastEP107: Jate Earhart, Twitch, & Reaching a Different Type of PersonFor most Online Ministry people, Twitch is probably not on your radar. For Jate Earhart, broadcasting has become a regular event. Jate streams on Twitch for hours a day, connecting/engaging/building relationships with people. And his digital church, Love Clan, is growing as a result.
Who’s he reaching? Some of these stories are borderline unbelievable, but give testimony to the fact that to reach different people, we need to do different methods.

The Church Digital PodcastEP044: Jate Earhart & Constructing a Digital ChurchThis Episode of The Church Digital Podcast may challenge some established norms. If so, that’s cool. They probably need to be challenged. A small, but growing number of physical churches are finally seeing that community can be created in virtual spaces, and now more than ever churches are currently operating small groups online. However, church today views these small groups as complementary to the physical ministry of the church (primarily which happens during that one-hour-on-Sunday service).
Enter Jate Earhart. Jate is no stranger to the podcast, as we talked about his online discipleship ministry for video ga...

The Church Digital PodcastEP013: Jate Earhart & Creating Disciples While Playing Video GamesLove video games? Love discipleship? Sharing your faith? Thinking outside the box? This is your episode.
Until Jate Earhart, I (Jeff) don't think I've ever seen the words "discipleship" and "video game" in a sentence together. Jate, in his 20s, runs a video game ministry called Love Clan that disciples those involved to share their faith, encouraging those engaged to not only evangelize, but to disciple, on-going relationships for Christ. Powerful stuff right?
My favorite part of the episode is talking innovation. While Jate works at a church, his ministry is not directly supported or...
