EP267: Gaming Church, APEST, and Biblical Collaboration
As we’ve been digging into Season 4: Jesus, Gamers, and Church we’ve explored many different types of gaming church, and we’re seeing many different people with different skill sets fit into different roles. Gaming church is a beautiful picture where churches, missionaries, and moderators all come together to create not just a single church, but a fully functioning ministry!
Church planters know of this idea (revived in recent years by Alan Hirsch and others) called APEST & the Fivefold Ministry. Modern Church Planters (and arguably all church leaders) should be encouraged to build out their leadership teams representing APEST: Apostles, Prophets, Evangelists, Shepherds and Teachers. As we dig into each role, we recognize the strengths and weaknesses of each role, but more than that, we see how APEST works together best when these roles are unified, when they work together.
How does APEST apply to Gaming Church, and to Gaming Culture? Let’s find out when we ask Lux Digital Church’s Mark Lutz, as well as Zach Miller from Storyland Studios (and Nerd Culture Ministry Collective) as we explore APEST in Gaming Church.
