iMergent Ministries is an exciting online community committed to fostering discipleship and fellowship in safe online space.. Whether you’re new to church, have been a Christian for many years, or are looking for a fresh start, you’re welcome here. Because of having to practice social distancing right now, we have decided to utilize various technologies that will enable to help stay connected to one another and still engage in our mandate to make disciples.
For those that join us, we stream teachings, prayers meetings, online discuss so you can worship with us IN PERSON. While in quarantine, we have seen so many lives changed through our online experiences the past few months. Our hope is to give you a place where you can experience a fresh, exciting, life changing Worship Experience while connecting to God and join our community of faith. We keep our focus simple so we can have the biggest impact possible. Everything we do as a community of believers is filtered through our focus on helping every person live the full life for which God created all of us.
An online church is a place where people professing to have faith in Jesus Christ gather regularly to be in meaningful community appointed to build up the kingdom—or more specifically, an online church is the confessing people gathering in a synthetic world.
Online church is church, in the same way that house churches and megachurches are also churches. What is different is in the way they assemble. We could say the same thing about other forms of church; for example, a house church would be a localized-in-houses-only assembly of the people of God. The way we try to differentiate this in English is to say that if I am in a building with you that I am present, whereas if I am meeting you via Zoom then I am telepresent with you.
True worship must be dialogical, not monological. People need to speak to God, and God needs to speak back. People need to hear from God. Then people need to hear from each other, and speak love to each other. That’s what makes church church, not the building (platform).
