PODCAST 070: Ray Hudson & Church Planting, Digital First
COVID-19 has brought a lot of confusion into the church. It’s hard enough to be an existing church navigating this season. Try being a church that hasn’t even launched yet.
That’s where Ray Hudson found himself. A Church Plant slated to launch Fall 2020, Ray launched early, digital only. And this is what makes Ray interesting. Ray is running a digital only church, but not wanting to limit himself digitally. Ray’s church, Our City Center, is passionate about reaching Berkeley, CA. Even in its digital state, the church desires to connect with people in the physical space.
That’s really the point. If our only desire is to connect with people digitally, we run the risk of creating consumers. Ray, though, is making us ask questions like, “How can this content impact people physically? How can we love people to the point that it impacts the physical world?” This is the standard that our Digital Churches, as well as, our Physical Churches, should hold themselves to.
Thus, the point of this conversation. Not sure if Ray’s a Digital-Only Church or not. That doesn’t matter, really. By thinking digital first, even as a Church Plant, he is impacting his community in a big way… even though he has no physical footprint
