Description

As technology becomes increasingly intertwined with every aspect of life, its impact on the church cannot be ignored. In Sacred Streaming?, Pastor Nick Thompson explores the theological, practical, and spiritual implications of livestreaming worship services. With thoughtful pastoral care, he raises crucial questions: Can public worship truly happen without the gathered presence of God's people? What are the hidden dangers of relying on digital tools for sacred practices? Drawing from Scripture, Reformed theology, and contemporary cultural insights, Thompson challenges readers to reflect on how livestreaming shapes our understanding of worship, community, and the nature of the church. While acknowledging the complexities and real needs of those unable to gather, he warns against the subtle erosion of biblical convictions by technological convenience. This book is a call to prioritize biblical values over cultural norms, urging the church to carefully consider how to faithfully navigate the digital age without compromising the irreplaceable beauty of Christ's gathered people.
