Christian media agency BMCFerrell and Oral Roberts University hosted the first-ever Christian Metaverse Webinar on Tuesday, July 12, 2022, in Tulsa, Oklahoma. A panel of six media and technology experts discussed and answered the hot question of the day for church leaders: “How can the church glorify God in the metaverse?”
Their overall reply: “Come and see!”
And that’s exactly what many churches from around the United States and abroad did! The insightful, hour-long session provided viewers with wisdom and understanding on the benefits of using the metaverse to tell others about Jesus.
“This virtual universe is given to us to communicate the gospel, the Word of God, and glorify God,” said Ferrell. “The psalmist said, ‘Ask for the nations and I will give you them.’ When over 120 million are gathering in metaverse—that’s a nation.”
Ferrell believes through the effective use of technology and sound wisdom these platforms can be used to share Christ with others.
Ben Ferrell, CEO of BMCFerrell, believes all media is a gift from God and can be used for His glory.
Mike Mathews, ORU’s Vice President of Technology and Innovation, layed down a biblical view (or spiritual perspective) of the metaverse, enlightening viewers about what the metaverse truly is.
