EP376 - Difficulties of Digital Missions: Pastor D on Twelve Years of Online Church
Twelve years of digital church — and she started before anyone was forced to.
A special Tuesday stream: Jeff Reed and Pastor D — Deidre Campbell-Jones, founder and Senior Pastor of The House of His Glory — just the two of them, on what digital missions actually costs the people doing it.
She planted House of His Glory in Sylmar, California in 2013 and took it fully digital around 2015, years before a pandemic made that a survival move. That makes her one of the few people who can say what a decade of this does to a church and to a pastor — not the pitch, the difficulties.
WHAT WE'LL TALK ABOUT
- Why she went digital in 2015, when nobody was asking her to
- What is genuinely hard about pastoring people you do not share a room with
- Why she still says digital is MORE intimate, not less
- The mental health gap: what pastors believe they are addressing from the pulpit, and what people actually receive
