The North American Church of the Future

A Saturate Webinar

COVID has changed the methods and marks of many churchesbut even as (if) the North American Church (and beyond) emerges from this unique season, the landscape will look vastly different. There will be no “going back”; no “return to normal.”
SEND Institute’s Daniel Yang kicks off Saturate’s fall webinar series as we explore how COVID has highlighted a number of realities and trends that existed before COVID, and will move even quicker after. We’ll see how church leaders can use this season to reform our priorities and prepare for mission and ministry in the next one.

Daniel is the Director of the Send Institute, leading and overseeing all of its initiatives. Prior to directing the institute, he planted a church in Toronto where he also helped recruit, assess, and train church planters through the Send Network and the Release Initiative. Daniel has served on various church staffs including Northwood Church, led by Bob Roberts Jr., where he was trained as a church planter and involved in global and multi-faith engagement. Prior to church planting, Daniel was an engineer for eight years. He earned an M.Div. from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, a B.S. in Computer Science from the University of Michigan, and is currently a Ph.D. Intercultural Studies student at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School.
