In this episode, I sit down with Rev. Tyrel Bramwell to talk about how Lutherans can reclaim their place in the modern digital world. From social media to podcasts, the internet has become today’s printing press — a powerful tool for sharing truth, faith, and the gospel. But are we using it well? Pastor Bramwell shares his insights on balancing online ministry with real-world discipleship, avoiding the trap of “celebrity Christianity,” and keeping Christ at the center of every click, post, and podcast.
