  • “The church should be leading the charge in the way of technology, but many are far behind.”
  • “Churches who are remaining relevant see technology as incumbent to their continued growth—not as an add-on.”
  • “Millennials want something with a sense of belonging.”
  • “Millennials want to be part of something that impacts the world and is larger than themselves.”
