Meta is here—the virtual world, the immersive digital environment. This is where you can walk around, feel like you’re in a real place, and interact with other people.
But is this an appropriate way to experience the church?
Is it in the same category as attending church in a physical location? 

And if so, what can the church do to take advantage of this new way of connecting with people? 
Many pastors and congregations are wrestling with these questions as they consider how to best use this technology to reach people. The answer isn’t easy. 
The key is finding a way to make the spiritual and the practical work together to provide the best experience for the people in your congregation. And that’s where a digital strategy for your church comes in. 
In this episode, we'll look at how you can take advantage of the unique possibilities that the metaverse can bring without losing sight of your ultimate goal— to grow your congregation's capacity to connect with God and one another.
Join us as we listen to Dave Adamson, a social media pastor, author, speaker, and content creator, as he explains what metaverse is and how you can use it to connect with people in meaningful ways.

He recently released his book MetaChurch: How to Use Digital Ministry to Reach People and Make Disciples, which makes him especially qualified to share how churches can use the metaverse technology to build capacity and engage the communities they serve.
“We can leverage online technology to literally meet together every single day. And so that's part of my philosophical, theological outlook of why “church online” is valid, and why it's something that we should be doing.”
-Dave Adamson
