Thriving Digital Communities
from Thriving Hosted by Rev. Sandy Brodine
Sandy Brodine is joined by Kelly Woods, known online as Pastoral Hare, and Will Nicholas, known as Odd Rev, to explore what it really takes for a digital community to thrive. Rather than treating online ministry as a simple Sunday morning livestream, they unpack how identity, presence, participation, and formation work in digital spaces. They also share a real example of Sonderverse, a live digital community built around faith, gaming, chat, and shared theological exploration, showing how online belonging can be as deep and relational as in-person community.
