Being a Priest online in 2024

The last ten years has seen a revolution in the way we communicate online, not least through the impact of the pandemic which thrust us into relying on technology in a new way. This will be a session to explore how social media is today, what it means to minister using these tools and an opportunity to reflect together theologically on how we use technology for ministry and mission.

We’re delighted to welcome the Rev’d Bryony Taylor to lead this session.
Bryony was a social media consultant before being ordained in 2014. She found her online skills coming in handy during the pandemic and produced guides and ran online courses for fellow clergy on how to navigate this brave new world. Bryony contributed a chapter to the Grove Booklet ‘Hybrid Church’ in 2020 and to a collection of articles on church during the pandemic in a book called the Distanced Church edited by Heidi Campbell (2020). She can be found on twitter/X, Instagram and Threads @vahva.
