In this short clip, church leader Rob Singleton recounts how his congregation pivoted to a high‑quality online presence during the COVID‑19 pandemic. After selling property, the church invested in professional streaming equipment, which allowed them to shift from roughly 30 online viewers to 3,000 by Easter and nearly 10,000 during later rebroadcasts. Singleton emphasizes that the pandemic forced rapid digital adoption, but the resulting hybrid model now supports a combined in‑person and online attendance of around 11,000 weekly. He also notes that the expanded reach includes international viewers, especially from African countries the church had previously visited, many of whom now participate in weekly services.

Chapters

Man, you know, God was good because we sold some property. We weren't online very much. We had maybe 30 people watching, but we sold the property and got some great cameras and just upfitted everything because we felt like, well, eventually we're going to have to get better at this. You know, I knew how to grow a church. Really, it's God who grows a church, but I knew how to do this. And things were really beginning to click and we were growing. And so, I thought, well, we're gonna have to really transition a lot more seriously online. Got all that equipment in place. I was actually in Africa when COVID hit and our family barely got back. We're getting temperature checks. It's like a sci-fi movie, you know, trying to get back into the country. Got our equipment going and lockdown hit in Colorado. So, So we had no choice, but the good thing was our equipment was so good, like some of the best churches really in the world, that we went from about 30 people joining us to, by the time we got to Easter, we had 3,000 joining us. That was only about a month and a half later. Now our biggest week, I think it was about a month and a half ago, we run rebroadcasts. So we had close to 10,000 people joining us. And what happened was it ended up being a good thing. I mean, COVID grew us. Now people are starting to come back, but our online audience really hasn't dissipated. So, you know, if you maybe have 1,000 meeting in person, now you've got 11,000 meeting each week, and there are people from all over the world. In fact, people from all the countries we visited in Africa did ministry in, in Africa. A lot of those have started to join us each week.
