What is this workshop about?

In a post-pandemic world, congregations face a new reality: the need to think BOTH/AND instead of either/or. It’s no longer enough to create great in-person experiences or engaging online content — effective ministry happens when we creatively maximize both experiences at once.

In this interactive seminar, author, speaker, and church consultant Jason Moore helps congregations of all sizes reimagine hybrid worship — moving beyond just streaming what happens in the room to designing worship that fully engages those online and in-person in meaningful ways.

This isn’t about doubling your workload or breaking the budget. It’s about shifting your mindset, rethinking old habits, and leveraging simple strategies to create deeply participatory experiences for every worshiper — no matter where they are. You won’t have to hire more staff, spend more money, or change your worship style. This day-long event will give you numerous easy-to-implement, low-hanging fruit strategies to create real worship for people

What will attendees learn?

You’ll learn:

  • Why hybrid worship still matters (yes, even now)
  • Practical tools for crafting worship with both audiences in mind
  • How to build connection, engagement, and participation across physical and digital space
  • Tips for teams of any size (even if it’s just you!)
  • Creative ideas that won’t break the bank or require more staff

Whether your online attendance has plateaued, you’re struggling to keep people engaged, want to move worshipers from online to in-person or you’re just wondering what’s next for hybrid worship — this seminar will give you a renewed vision and practical next steps for the hybrid future of the church.

Who is this workshop for?

This seminar is for congregations of all sizes, shapes, worship styles and of any means. Anyone who is streaming worship online will benefit from the day.

Pastors, worship planners, technologists, children’s ministry directors, hospitality team members and more will gain from the day. Both clergy and laity will find the material accessible.
