Over the past 13 months the pandemic has changed the landscape of how and where we do church. Everything is different when it comes to the church, family, and life. Social media and technology have become the digital platform to staying connected to church members, friends, youth, small groups, the sick, and shut-in.

In the digital world, pastors have become producers, directors, editors, and tele-evangelist. Sometimes, navigating through this high tech world can be difficult and make you want to throw your hands up and say, whatever. But wait! We can’t ignore the impact virtual church is having during this new church normal. Join the Nashville Baptist Association as we share practical and proven technology tools and strategies.
