Publisher's summary

Digital ministry is complicated and exhausting.

You know there’s more to it than just streaming services and posting on social media. But where do you start?

Dave Adamson was one of the first online pastors in the world, and he draws on this experience to give church leaders a detailed, practical guide to help them develop a church strategy in which online and on-site ministries work together seamlessly. In MetaChurch, you will:

  • See how your first-century mission can look with a 21st-century model
  • Examine ways online church can be a viable evangelistic and discipleship tool
  • Learn how a digital ministry can complement physical ministries and help them grow
  • Discover how to reach and connect with people beyond the church building
  • Develop a discipleship strategy and pathway that leverages online and offline tools

With real-world illustrations from Dave’s ministry experience, case studies of churches that have applied his insights, and step-by-step guides that can be put into practice today, MetaChurch (read by the author) helps ministries of all sizes effectively use technology to reach people and make disciples.

Ready set go!!!

Okay so I've been our only on-line host for about
1 1/2 years This is the book that will help me help my Church to explore and hopefully expand our social media and on-line service. I agree with its best to have as much as possible for people to be in the seats at there Church.. however that's not always possible.. so the information in this book will help with fine tuning our service. love it the Dave narrates this himself so to get his humor, passion and true desire of helping others.. first with the great commission.. and then with the Church.
Much love for Dave and this book! Shalom ☝️

Better Than I Thought

The book begins by making a case for social media. I was looking for practical actions I could take so I didn’t really get into the book until I skipped the first few chapters.

Excellent and Practical Information

I love how the author laid out his ideas on how our churches can be even more relevant. I have to listen again starting at chapter 9 and following where the practical stuff happens. Highly recommended!

big-picture thinking on fulfilling our mission

This was a great book. A little like drinking from a firehose, but plling out those golden tidbits that fit your church is worth the listen.
