"Church With No Walls" Podcast
This podcast follows what that experience was like for religious leaders, members of religious organizations, those churches who became hybrid during the pandemic. We also look at how media ministry is transforming the church now that the pandemic is over. In Seasons 2 & 3, we focus on unique media ministries that can be found outside the four walls of the church!
