What did the network tell theChurch.digital, and what did we build because of it?
Town Hall 2026.4, theChurch.digital's fall Town Hall, live on YouTube and Twitch. Jeff Reed walks through the fall survey: who answered and where they minister, how they are really doing, who they talk to when digital ministry is discouraging, what would most move their ministry forward, and whether TCD's teaching is shaped too much by American assumptions.
Then the launches, each answering something you said: Here I Am, One-to-One conversations with TCD's leaders (with a video from Jason Morris), Scattered, a study through 1 Peter for the whole digital church (with Flatcap), Cairn, TCD's Ai, and three ways to serve. Chaplain Stacy Knapp and Flatcap close in prayer.
In Jeff's words: "You may be exiled, you may be scattered, but don't forget what you are is chosen."
