Questions
Is there a shorter version of theChurch.digital's podcasts?
Yes. TCD's You Talk Too Much takes the long conversations from Becoming theChurch.digital and Ctrl+Alt+Redeem and cuts each one to about 20 minutes: the same conversation, in the order it happened, with nothing rewritten. For Scattered, it's one stretch of about 15 minutes from each week's study, with a short setup and close. Every episode links to the full one.
How can I keep up with conversations about digital ministry without hours of listening?
Follow TCD's You Talk Too Much on Apple Podcasts or Spotify. Each episode is about 20 minutes, so you get the whole argument of a long conversation in one commute, and when one grabs you, the full episode is a tap away.
