Holy Scared with Jason Romano Apr 21, 2023

Show notes

The idea of a "sports ministry" may not be widely known, but it involves merging a passion for sports with the love for Jesus and His followers. This is what Sports Spectrum is all about – shining a light on the intersection of faith and sports.

Sports Spectrum is an interview-driven podcast hosted by former ESPN Senior Producer Jason Romano. He came to realize that there were people doing his work, but for a greater purpose. This realization called him to start something similar, but for God this time.

In this episode of the Social Media Church Podcast, Jason Romano of the Sports Spectrum Podcast, shares his experience listening to God's call for him to transition out from one job to another — one that involved his passion for both sports and for God.

Tech-Mediated Ministry with Bryan Barrineau and Heath Woolman Apr 10, 2023

Show notes

Many believe technology use in the church started only in the last century. However, it didn't just begin with radio broadcasts and TV evangelism; it dates back to the Old Testament, when God's people used various tools to communicate messages from God. One example was when Noah built an ark to deliver a message from God.

Today, the tech-mediated ministry is evident in social media, live streaming of church services, mobile apps, and more. While many churches rush to reach high engagement, some people believe that what matters most are the stories of lives changed. Churches often focus on the quantitative side, but it's essential to consider the qualitative aspect.

In this episode of the Social Media Podcast, Heath Woolman, Chief of Staff and Instructor at Southwestern Seminary in Fort Worth, TX., and Bryan Barrineau, Student Pastor of FBC Enterprise, share their insights based on their study of Technology-Mediated Ministry and its role in fulfilling the Great Commission. They also discuss how churches and ministries can leverage technology in ways we haven't imagined yet.

The Rise and Fall of Clubhouse Mar 18, 2023

Show notes

If you're an audio-based enthusiast, you'd probably heard about Clubhouse. Clubhouse blew up fast during the pandemic and became the talk of the town as celebrities, entrepreneurs, and industry leaders all flocked in to host live discussions on the audio-based social media app.The social media app attracted many high-profile personalities, and for a time, it provided a unique way for people worldwide to interact, connect, and engage.

But Clubhouse's success was short-lived due to the declining quality of content, as the platform became overrun with spammers. The app's exclusivity also hindered its growth, and it failed to pay creators while it still had the opportunity. Twitter and Facebook also started to launch their own audio-only features, competing against Clubhouse's exclusivity.

Tune in this podcast episode as, DK Hammonds shares with Nils Smith and Aaron Magnuson what he thinks were the reasons for the rise and fall of Clubhouse. Show Notes: Aaron Magnuson Facebook

Short Form Simplified with Corey Alderin Mar 10, 2023

Posting full sermons online has become standard for most churches, but short-form video has taken over social media, and churches have struggled to keep up. The content is in the sermon, but the time required to edit horizontal to vertical while finding the right clips, editing the captions, and everything in between is no small task!

In this podcast, Corey Alderin explains how they've simplified the process of creating short-form content from sermons and why they've done it with the trends on TikTok, Instagram, and even YouTube.

A Conversation with Katie Allred about Empowering Women in Ministry Feb 25, 2023

Show notes

Empowering women has been a focus in different industries but it's not always talked about within the church. We believe it's time we start a conversation as women offer tremendous value to the faith community.

Women in the church are important so it's a must that churches include them and to allow them to use their talents and gifts for the fulfillment of the Great Commission. Women can do so much more!

It's time that women are given different opportunities in the ministry. Women are encouraged to become the people God wants them to be, just as how we empower men the same way. By empowering everyone and not just women, the church can become a community that fully reflects the love of God.

Watch this episode of the Social Media Church Podcast as Nils Smith and Katie Allred have an interesting conversation about empowering women in the ministry. Learn why churches should give more opportunities to women beyond the kitchen and the home.
