Have you ever heard of an online church?  Here is an excerpt from an article about how to get involved with an actual online church, the ultimate in church tech outreach:

I have been a fan of LifeChurch for many years and watched their online reach grow. I remember when they were first starting OnlineChurch and there was only a handful of experiences and I have watched as more and more experiences have been added.

Recently, I started poking around their website and found a link to opportunities to serve and that really grabbed my attention.  The more I read about what was available the more interested I became.  The roles are as follows:

• Captain: Lead, empower and encourage a team of volunteers as a lay pastor during the Church Online Experience.
• Live Prayer: Pray with people from around the world using one-on-one chat during the Church Online Experience.
• Admin: Moderate chat, run interactive elements and set the countdown clock for upcoming Church Online Experiences.
• Chat Host: Provide a warm welcome in the chat portion of the Experience.
• Live Help: Provide technical support during the Church Online Experience.

I contacted my friend Chase Livingston and asked him some questions about his role with the experiences and he then pointed me in the right direction to get involved.  As I considered the roles and prayed about it, I kept coming back to Captain. So, after completing the application process and talking with Amanda Sims, I got plugged in.

To start, I am serving with the 8pm CT experience and spending time doing each of the roles in preparation of being a captain of my own experience.
