It’s hard to believe just how quickly the world has turned upside down. But here we are in the midst of a global pandemic. People are suffering and dying, and most of us are confined to our homes. That’s a particular challenge for pastors. At a time when people are scared and anxious, you’re unable to be with them in person.
I thought I’d never say it, but thank God for the internet! In this crisis, it’s enabling churches to connect virtually with members and livestream church services. This week we want to share some resources that will help you continue your ministry effectively, even as you’re unable to gather. David Taylor has written an excellent piece on how you can humanize the online church experience. Read How to Lead Online Worship Without Losing Your Soul—Or Body. And check out our resource: Preaching in Moments of Crisis. The wisdom here will help you be an instrument of God’s peace in a time of upheaval and stress.
