Justin spoke at the 2023 Church Ministries Conference here in Grand Rapids. Talked about what service flow is and what it should look like.

The team is having a discussion about whether church services should adopt a more YouTube-like format. Some members argue that online platforms offer a wider reach and greater flexibility in terms of scheduling and content delivery. Others, however, believe that the in-person service is an essential aspect of the church experience and cannot be replicated through virtual means. Those in favor of a more YouTube-like approach argue that online platforms allow churches to reach a broader audience, including those who may not be able to attend in person due to geographical or physical limitations. They also point out that online services can be easily recorded and shared, allowing viewers to watch at their convenience. On the other hand, those who value the in-person service argue that there is something unique about gathering together as a community of believers. They believe that the physical act of coming together for worship and fellowship is an essential aspect of the church experience that cannot be fully replicated through online platforms. They also argue that the in-person service provides an opportunity for personal interaction and connection, which is important for building relationships and supporting each other in faith. Overall, the purpose of the in-person service is to provide a space for believers to come together to worship, learn, and connect with each other in a way that is difficult to achieve through virtual means. While online platforms can provide a valuable supplement to the in-person service, they cannot replace the unique experience of gathering together as a community of believers.
