On this episode of Social Media Church, hear a conversation with Dan Hickling, Internet Pastor at Calvary Chapel of Fort Lauderdale‘sWeb Campus. He describes how they facilitate an online worship experience that builds relationships and fosters discipleship, how they measure success, and why they don’t treat everyone the same online. He describes all this in such great detail, it’s almost like a play-by-play off of the run sheet. You can tell he’s a pastor and a teacher.

Worshipers no longer have to be in the same room, or even the same time zone, to meet, pray and get counseling via computer, cellphone and tablet during an average week with Calvary Chapel of Fort Lauderdale. In fact, the church’s web pastor, Dan Hickling, lives in Nashville.
On this episode of Social Media Church, we hear from Alan George, the Church Online Pastor at LifeChurch.tv, sharing the back story of how someone not technically-inclined became an Internet Campus Pastor, the big surprise of pastoring online, how to coordinate and mobilize a large team of volunteers, the missional use of technology, and what LifeChurch.tv might be dreaming up next.
