The I IN CHRIST Online Church gives you the certainty of being connected to the same Word of grace and perfection, irrespective of where you are/go. However, the comfort of learning from wherever we also comes with its 'challenges'.
In order to make the most of every live service, we have to make a conscious effort to create the right atmosphere for effective worship and fellowship with the saints.
Here are a few tips that would help us in achieving creating the right atmosphere of worship:
Choose a quiet place and one that is free of distraction
Attend each service with the mindset we are at a physical gathering rather than we are just streaming a service
Endeavor to concentrate on the service and avoid the temptation to do other things (on your device or around ) during the course of the service
Rest properly before the service to avoid lack of concentration due to fatigue
Take notes during the service as this helps in maintaining focus and concentration
Partake in all activities during the service rather than just watching others do so
Other things to note (video/audio conference calls only ):
Connect to meetings some minutes before the start time. This would give you time to set up and carry out all necessary tests before the meeting starts
Where possible turn off other electronic devices around you (such as television and radio). This is to eliminate radio interferences
If you are using your laptop or computer, please keep your mobile devices at a distance from it. This is to avoid echo, statics, and feedback during the call
If there is an increase in noise where you are, please mute your microphone until the noise abates. This is to eliminate background noises during the meeting
