COVID: Lessons Learned

We all paid a high price during COVID. The question is: did we learn from it?

COVID didn’t just disrupt our churches—it revealed them.

In this episode, Moose Bright, Director of the Relational Discipleship Network, sits down with pastors from Red, Blue, and Purple states to reflect on what COVID uncovered about the Church, our communities, and ourselves.

Together, they explore the lessons learned, the challenges exposed, and the opportunities ahead as we continue pursuing a healthier, more relational way of making disciples.

This isn’t a political conversation—it’s an honest conversation about what COVID revealed, how it shaped the Church, and what we can carry forward so we don’t waste what we went through.
