Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: The use of the internet and digital technology has permeated most facets of life from educational to business organizations both secular and religious. The digital revolution and use of the internet will have a prevailing and lasting impact; therefore, it is prudent for leaders to develop strategies to integrate such innovations into their normal operations. In light of this revolution, Christian leaders and organizations are compelled to consider the capabilities that digital technology and the internet have to offer for ministry practices. Such a revolution challenges the traditional norms and practices of Christian churches and causes them to consider the biblical and theological implications of relatively new means for carrying out ministry. There are biblical, theological, theoretical, and leadership implications to embracing digital church as a biblical community. Christian leaders should examine the biblical and theological implications of digital church as a biblical community and be utilized to augment local church ministry.
