Drs. Karen Marie-Yust & Erin Reibel - "Real Kids Real Faith" | How We Do Digital Ministry Episode 52
Episode 52 of the How We Do Digital Ministry podcast features Dr. Karen-Marie Yust and Dr. Erin Reibel from Real Kids Real Faith. Karen-Marie, Erin, and Charlotte Elia discuss nurturing children's spirituality online, growing in faith through questions rather than dogma, and seizing this opportunity for innovation.
"The combination of the diminishing Sunday school and the reliance on online resources means that children's ministry needs to move toward providing those more direct resources to families, even if families are still intersecting with the church. Because on a Tuesday afternoon, when a parent is thinking, 'My child is asking this question and I don't know how to explore this issue with them,' they're not going to wait until the next Sunday they're in church to ask their pastor about that. They're going to Google it." - Dr. Karen-Marie Yust
"Your traditional Sunday school lesson is about putting information into a child, and what we are opting to do instead is to open up an avenue for them to explore their own spirituality." - Dr. Erin Reibel
Listen to the full episode as Karen-Marie and Erin talk about these topics:
Growing Spiritually Through Exploring Questions [2:55]
Changing Landscape of Children's Ministry [6:12]
The Innovation Hub [9:53]
Children's Ministry in the Digital Space [13:39]
A Word to Congregations [18:26]

Rev. Ryan Dunn - "Narrowing Your Niche" | How We Do Digital Ministry Episode 51
Episode 51 of the How We Do Digital Ministry podcast features Rev. Ryan Dunn, Minister of Online Engagement with United Methodist Communications. Ryan and Charlotte Elia discuss creating digital content for seekers, focusing on your particular audience, and discerning which tools and tactics best suit your congregation.
"The future of the church is niche, and that doesn't mean all of our congregations are gonna be like very focused on one segment of the population. But I think ministry as a whole is going to be niche, that we're leaning more into a time where the way that we make meaning and create meaning for ourselves is very individualized." - Rev. Ryan Dunn

Platform vs. Engagement [5:45]
Digital First Culture [9:23]
Leading Through Conflict [14:02]
