    What lessons has God taught us in the online church COVID era? He is doing something new.

    “See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.” (Isaiah 43,19 NIV11)

    This new podcast series is my attempt to think through what we have learned, what we might retain and what we might do differently now that we are moving into meeting together physically again.

    Today I share the adjustments we made with the number and placement of songs in the service.
