Missing spiritual community while traveling full-time? You're not alone. In this episode, Jennifer speaks with Shane Boyd, founder of Gathering of Nomads, about how RVers can find meaningful faith-based connections on the road.

From starting as a traditional church pastor to discovering a gap in nomadic ministry, Shane shares the heart behind building a community that meets travelers where they are. Discover how Gathering of Nomads is training everyday believers to be the church in campgrounds across the country through their chapter program, and why faith community doesn't require a square building.

Being constantly on the move creates unique challenges developing spiritual connections. Learn how one ministry creates opportunities through pop-up gatherings, remote discipleship, and a specialized app that connects like-minded nomads.

Learn How:

  • Shane's journey transitioned from traditional to nomadic
  • Churches often miss connecting with the RV community
  • The "BLESS model" can help build authentic relationships on the road
  • Chapter leaders are bringing nomads together nationwide
  • Remote discipleship can help you stay connected between travel destinations
  • The Gathering of Nomads app helps travelers find faith-led community
  • Love Thy Nomad helps RVers in need
