Rev. Jim Keat is the Digital Minister at The Riverside Church.
In this role he helps every ministry area of the church explore ways to utilize digital platforms to share online content and cultivate online community. He focuses on the ways Riverside’s online community can be more connected and engaged, allowing us to thrive as one church from wherever we are.
Rev. Keat also coordinates various “digital first” aspects of Riverside’s ministry, from Virtual Coffee Hour to original video and audio content and more. You can often see Rev. Keat in the live chat during Sunday morning worship, hear him talking about the upcoming lectionary passage with Rev. Adriene Thorne on The Word Made Fresh, or find him dreaming of ways that digital platforms can continue to deepen our connection as a community and our spiritual formation.
