Everyone has an opinion about live streaming, pro or con. As I sift through it, I only want to give a platform to the most helpful, thoughtful voices, and Tim Fox is one of them.
In this podcast, we talk about the content of a Facebook post Tim wrote that challenged the reasons most churches live stream their services, while offering some thoughtful alternatives.
Tim is not anti tech, but he is good at asking deeper questions about what we’re doing and why we’re doing it. He offers eight points, all of which are thoughtful, including two that really caught my attention. And all four of his alternatives are helpful.
Tim is a denominational leader in Georgia who spent several years leading a small church into a healthy turnaround.
Also, this episode marks a change in the way I close podcasts. From this point on, if I have closing words after the interview (and I may not always) it will be to add something new to the conversation, not just to give a summation of it. And that’s what I do at the end of this episode, so stick around for my additional thoughts.

Creating A Digital Disciple-making Strategy, with Tim Fox
Ask better questions. This is the essence of Tim Fox’s approach to ministry and his advice for us.
In this bonus content, Tim and I talk about how to think better about how we engage people online — as a lead-in and a supplement to our in-person service, not as an alternative to it.
