The pandemic that COVID-19 created has illustrated the need for ministries to return to a more adaptable state, much like the ancient iteration of the church was very adaptable, and it is a reminder that the church community transcends a physical location. The church community is not merely physical; it is also metaphysical, mediated through the Paraclete, with each believer bound together into a spiritual community whose Lord interacts with it metaphysically. In modernity, one way that the church can be more adaptable and transcend the physical that will assist it in remaining relevant as it continues to pursue the missio Dei with the greatest expediency is that of the digital landscape, specifically online platforms and tools. These represent the greatest potential presently to expand the church's influence and the kingdom of God. However, many local ministries have fallen behind on leveraging these online tools to their fullest extent for one reason or another.
