Dr. Karyn L. Wiseman \nPreaching in this time is different than ever before. We are doing more digital and collaborative worship due to the pandemic and we are doing more with less physicality than normal. But how do we do these things well? What are the most engaging ways to preach for today? How do we preach the Gospel to transform our listeners and our part of the world? These are the questions Dr. Wiseman will address in her workshop.\n\n\n\n11:00 am -11:15 am\nQ&A\n\n\n11:15 am -12:15 pm\n\nDigital Worship\nRev. Dr. Erika D. Crawford \nDuring these difficult times digital worship caused the church to change some traditions. Some of these changes may be temporary but some may be permanent. How do we marry the tradition with the current context?  How do we do this without alienating anyone? How do we handle communion\, sacraments\, funerals? We’re going to have to be creative and continue to innovate. Can we understand this time as a gift and digital worship as a means of grace? Explore with Dr. Crawford the new understanding of community that has emerged from digital worship and how our worshipping communities are even now being reformed in a new way. \n  \n\n\n\n\n12:15 pm -12:30 pm\nQ&A\n\n\n12:30 pm -1:00 pm\nLunch Break\n\n\nAfternoon Sessions\n\n\n1:00 pm -2:00 pm\n\nHow Can We Sing God’s Song in a Strange [Virtual] Land?\nDr. Martin Tel \nLike the psalmist\, we have felt like hanging our harps (well\, maybe guitars) in the willows (Psalm 137:2). We remember how we used to join the singing multitude in God’s house\, and we weep (Psalm 42:4). In this exile\, whether it be livestream\, Zoom\, or other muted gatherings\, we have learned lessons about what we had taken for granted\, but have also discovered aspects of singing that we had overlooked. Together we will consider some of the best practices of virtual communal singing and anticipate what we might wish to carry forward in our “post-exilic” worship. \n  \n\n\n\n\n2:00 pm -2:15 pm\nQ&A\n\n\n2:15 pm -3:15 pm\n\nBoth/And: Maximizing Hybrid Worship Experiences For Online and In-Person Audiences\nJason Moore \nIn 2020\, many churches went online for the first time or completely overhauled their approach to the online worship experience. For the first time ever\, most churches began talking directly to the camera\, and started designing worship for people watching online from home or wherever they might otherwise be. \nAs we approach the return to in-person worship\, we face a critical moment in the life of the church. We mustn’t treat the people who return to our worship spaces as the studio audience for people who have watched online\, and we also cannot treat the online audience like observers of an experience they’re not really a part of. \nJoin author\, speaker and worship coach Jason Moore for a conversation about how to re-imagine worship\, the experience of worship and how to create “BOTH/AND” worship where neither audience feels like an afterthought. You’ll learn specific strategies for how to connect with multiple audiences\, regardless of your church size\, worship style\, technology savvy\, denominational affiliation (or not) and more.\n\n\n3:15 pm -3:30 pm\nQ&A\n\n\n\nAbout the presenters:\n\n\n\n\nRev.
