Season 13 of the 'More than Sunday' podcast explores the intersection of faith and technology and asks what it might look like to stay human in an increasingly digital world.

This season features conversations with pastors and faith leaders from the Phygital Preaching Fellowship, an initiative of Texas Methodist Foundation and Wesleyan Impact Partners, made possible through the support of the Lilly Endowment.

Host, Rohini Drake, has been part of this fellowship for the past two years, and the interviews included in the podcast were recorded in Chicago to capture real, thoughtful reflections from leaders navigating ministry in a hybrid, evolving landscape.

In this episode, we ask a question that many of us have been wrestling with lately - 'why is it easier to make friends online'? We hear from Rev. Jonah Overton (they/them) - a queer community organizer, and Rev. Nathan Webb, an Elder in the UMC and pastor of Checkpoint Church, which is an online church for nerds, geeks, and gamers. We'll also hear from Dr. Clayton Oliphint, Senior Pastor at FUMCR and Rev. Allison Jean, Pastor of Modern Worship who help us navigate these conversations with insight, curiosity, and through the lens of faith.
