You all know what that physical church looks like in your local neighborhoods, but there has been a disruption in the church space and now digital-only churches are here. These churches, with no physical footprint, have been planted in digital communities like virtual reality, social media, and video games! With a rich (yet imaginative) ecclesiology, these churches have done a great job innovating for the kingdom, and ultimately reaching a different person than our physical buildings have reached.

Learn how, by releasing control, Jason was able to multiply his church in the metaverse, and start to reach a different type of person that his buildings could not reach.
