EP270 - James Emery White Talks Hybrid Church

I’ve had a mutual respect for James Emery White for a while now. His church, Mecklenburg, has gotten some attention in recent years for abandoning their multisite strategy and instead focusing on their digital strategy. So, of course I feel a kindred spirit. Then he says the word phygital…a lot…so of course I love this guy. We had a great conversation here on this podcast. We talked Meck. We talked James’ new book "Hybrid Church." We talked what digital can, and cannot, do. On most points I agree with James, but on all points it’s a valid conversation around physicality and the changes to community and contextualization. We need more pastors like James Emery White. Grab this podcast url and share it with your lead pastor. Buy the book and pass it around your church. Learn how your church has to really function digitally and physically simultaneously.
