117: Does Online Church Count?

Over the last year, many (and may we say most) church have started to livestream their church's worship services, but before COVID even showed, many larger churches started to build online church experiences and communities. Many churches now have an "online campus" for their church and hire staff members and ordained pastors to oversee and shepherd the church's online community. In response to the growing online church community, there has also but much opposition to churches offering an online campus and online experience.   In this episode of RTC, Marc and Fuller ask the question of "does online church even count?" With looking to both Scripture and practical wisdom, they set out to see if the nay-sayers have any ground to stand on or if churches who use online campus are simply using 21st Century technology to bring the Gospel into people's homes and develop them into disciples of Jesus.   // Other Episodes You May Enjoy // 103: False Teachers in the Church, Part 2 ft.
