During the COVID-19 pandemic, the church has undergone dramatic forced change.
Watch a MyCom/UMCom Digital Lounge Zoom chat as leaders talk through the blindspots, skepticism, battles with unknown cables and weak Wi-Fi during this time of "screens not people."
Meet:
- Kristen Sudduth, director of communications, of Smyrna First UMC, a large metro church that had not livestreamed before
- Rev. Valerie A. Barnes from Chews Memorial/Carters UMC, a small rural charge now 'Zooming' with members ages 60+ over mobile phones
- Rev. Craig Taylor of Stovall UMC, a video savvy church who elevated his sermon visual storytelling through nature
- Steven Adair of UMCom and Glendale UMC who knows Wi-Fi isn't scary
Learn from their experience, where they've been and explore what they expect to happen next.
