On this episode of Social Media Church, you’ll hear a conversation with Pastor Neil Franks, who is known as the 2-Minute Pastor, a video devotional app on mobile phones (Android and iOS). Pastor Franks is also the Lead Pastor of First Baptist Church of Branson, Missouri. From all indicators, this is the only 2-minute video devotional app of its kind. Hear the back story of how this idea came about, how long it took to build the app, and the kind of impact it’s already had in less than 6 months of launch!

This Social Media Church episode features a conversation with Corrin Bauer, Online Communications Manager (aka Social Media Manager) at Mars Hill Church (Seattle, Washington), a multi-site church (currently) with 14 campuses in 4 states, with 2 more campuses and 1 more state coming soon. She manages the social media for @marshill @theresurgence & @pastormark as well as the church. Mars Hill is the only church I know of that uploads sermon previews on YouTube, sorta like movie trailers, not just sermon series promo videos.
