Can you believe the last week of 2020 is here already? Time really does fly like a jet plane! As the year draws rapidly to a close, it’s time to take a look back at this year’s best and most impactful developments in churchtech, faith, and social media. Because of the global COVID-19 pandemic, social media, as well as, virtual church and ministry services were more important than ever! This trend will definitely continue into the foreseeable future, or at least until the pandemic is brought under greater control.
In this very singular year, one like no other, I’m pleased to share my favorite picks for the ‘Best of 2020,’ in Church, Tech and Social Media news, events, and trends!
