"Online Church Is Not The Answer" aims to transform how churches integrate digital strategy to enhance discipleship beyond streaming services.

LOS ANGELES, CA, UNITED STATES, September 6, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The new book "Online Church Is Not The Answer," by Saddleback Church's online community pastor Jay Kranda, is finally out for the faithful. This insightful book addresses the challenges of digital ministry and provides helpful advice for developing an integrated strategy that complements a church's physical goals. It offers a perceptive and topical look at churches' potential and problems in the digital era.

Kranda challenges churches to reconsider their approach to digital strategy in "Online Church Is Not The Answer." The book pushes church leaders to adopt a more comprehensive and significant digital presence, going beyond the idea of merely streaming services online. In the words of Kranda, "Online ministry isn’t about replacing the in-person experience but about extending the reach of the church. The goal is not to create a digital version of your Sunday service but to develop an integrated approach that empowers discipleship wherever people are.”

Kranda's book offers churches a road map for adjusting to the changing digital environment without sacrificing their in-person goals. The book will teach readers how to strategically apply digital concepts beyond streaming and concentrate on creating disciples rather than merely drawing in an online following. The book equips church leaders to reevaluate their digital ministry strategy and use technology for more meaningful participation through useful ideas and doable activities.

”The future of the church lies in its ability to adapt to new technologies while staying true to its mission. Hybrid disciple-making is not just a trend but a necessity for churches to remain relevant in a rapidly changing world,” said Kranda.

For church leaders and ministry teams seeking to improve their digital strategy and expand their congregations through purposeful and meaningful online interaction, "Online Church Is Not The Answer" is a must-read.
