Digital Parish: Navigating the digital landscape with James Kang

More from Pastoring in the Digital Parish

On this episode of Pastoring in the Digital Parish, we delve into the future of church ministry with our special guest, James Kang. James recounts his experiment called 'Regular Church,' which explores the combination of ministry in the metaverse with AI, and reveals the positive results of AI's ability to process theological information and communicate with humans. We explore the growth of Pastoria, which began as a consultancy for ministries going digital but has evolved into an incubator model for generating ministries in various industry areas such as design, entrepreneurship, innovation, travel, and faith. He highlights the idea that these modalities can be seen as spiritual languages and encourages individuals to view their own lives and work in these industries as ministries.

We also discuss the importance of recognizing the demand for ministry work and quickly generating resources, focusing on finding the perfect fit for a ministry instead of striving for perfection.
