EP3: Building Real Relationships Through Digital Church

Welcome to Connected Faith, the Asia Pacific Media podcast hosted by Bill Snider and Dr. Layne McDonald — two creative leaders helping believers use media to amplify the Gospel in today’s digital age.

In this episode, Bill and Dr. Layne unpack how churches can move beyond “streaming on Sundays” to build real digital relationships that disciple, heal, and reach beyond the walls.

🎙️ You’ll discover:

• How to make digital ministry more personal, authentic, and engaging

• Why most churches stop at views instead of building relationships

• How to identify and empower digital laborers for the online harvest

• The latest apps and platforms helping churches connect — YouVersion, PrayerMate, WhatsApp, and more

• How to reach Gen Z and young adults struggling with loneliness and anxiety through media that heals

💡 “The greatest mission field may not be across the ocean — it’s across the screen.” — Dr. Layne McDonald
