Mike van Goch is on Theology Meets World with host Jake Doberenz to talk about the intersection of theology and the internet, particularly in a post-pandemic world. They discuss the challenges and opportunities presented by online ministry, the nature of the internet as a “sinful” tool, and the complexities of discipleship in a digital age. Mike clearly emphasizes the importance of community and relationships in discipleship, which mere “content” can’t provide. The conversation also touches on practical steps for engaging with technology in a way that aligns with Christian values.
