In this special interview, CofE rev with a difference Jamie Franklin sits down to talk with pastor, Old Testament scholar and author Benjamin Giffone about his new book A House Divided: Technology, Worship, and Healing the Church After COVID . Topics discussed: - The downsides of online worship and why church leaders were wrong to embrace it so uncritically. - Elitism in the church hierarchy which contributed to "laptop class" style response. - A better way to approach the question of experts and expertise than simple capitulation. - Hope for the future of the church and moving beyond the events of five years ago. That and much more as ever. Enjoy! Buy Benj's Book! https://amzn.to/3SiqFbK Read Benj's Blog! https://thinkhardthinkwell.com/ Buy Jamie's Book! THE GREAT RETURN Please Support the Podcast!
