About this Episode

Streaming has changed how people learn, watch and grow. The question is what that shift means for the church.


In this episode of The Unbound Podcast, Dr. Evans sits down with Phil Warner, VP of Video Content at RightNow Media, for a conversation about how faith is being communicated in a media-driven world. Phil has spent decades helping shape Christian video resources, watching technology transform how people engage with teaching, discipleship and storytelling.


RightNow Media has grown into the largest streaming library of discipleship content in the world, but it began with a small team producing just a handful of Bible studies each year. Phil shares how those early efforts eventually led to a global platform now used by churches across the world, and what ministries can learn from the way media habits continue to change.


Dr. Evans and Phil also pull back the curtain on the realities of producing ministry media. Dr. Evans admits that while the finished videos look great, capturing those moments sometimes requires very, very, very long walks just to get the right B-roll shot. The conversation moves easily from those lighter behind-the-scenes moments into a deeper discussion about why the church shouldn’t fear new technology, how streaming platforms are reshaping the way people grow spiritually and why believers need to understand the tools shaping culture today.


Phil Warner serves as VP of Video Content at RightNow Media, where he leads the team producing films and video teaching used across the platform. During his time there, he has helped develop more than 250 video-based discipleship resources, driven by a passion to use media to boldly communicate the gospel.
