The Networked Church: Mission and Ministry in the Digital Era
By Dr Boaz Kok
What happens when the Church moves from pews to platforms?
In this bold and timely exploration, Dr Boaz Kok invites readers into a world where livestreams, algorithms, and online communities are not distractions, but mission fields. The Networked Church is a theological and practical guide for pastors, leaders, and believers navigating the digital age with wisdom, courage, and creativity.
From hybrid worship and digital discipleship to AI-generated sermons and virtual pastoral care, this book unpacks the opportunities and ethical tensions of ministry in a hyperconnected world. Drawing from years of global missionary experience and deep Messianic convictions, Dr Kok offers a compelling vision for a Church that is both rooted and responsive, faithful to the Gospel and fluent in the language of the internet.
Whether you're a seasoned leader or a digital native, this book will challenge you to rethink what it means to gather, disciple, evangelise, and care in a world that never logs off.
