Discover how to leverage technology in your church

We’ve heard the story for years now: “Every congregation needs a website”; but the simple reality is that many congregations simply don’t have the knowledge or skills to create and support a site that will be beneficial to the church and its community. I’ll write more on overall strategy in a later post, but for today, I’d like to provide a brief introduction to the various moving parts that make up a website.

No matter what time in your church’s fiscal year it is, if you’re a pastor, office manager, or treasurer looking for effective church budgeting tips, you’ve come to the right place. We’ll be outlining some church budgeting tips to help you streamline your accounting process, balance your budgets, and manage your accounts! By making a few small changes to how you approach your church budget, you can more effectively steward the gifts that God has graciously entrusted to your church.

In a world brimming with technological innovations, some tools prove their enduring value time and again, and few are more valuable than email. Despite the rise of platforms like Microsoft Teams, Slack, and WhatsApp, email remains a steadfast communication tool across workplaces.

When it comes to church communication strategy, we often think of communicating with our members or visitors. But what about your church staff? How can you maintain healthy church staff communication? 

You may find this scenario familiar: you’re driving into work, mentally listing everything you need to accomplish for the day. After arriving and grabbing a warm beverage, you sit down at your workstation, start your computer, and sign in. Your first stop? Email. 

If you’re looking to improve your church announcements, you’re not alone. You need to share pertinent information with your members in a way that gives them all the necessary information without overwhelming them. You want it to be interesting but informative—which can be a tall task! 

Engaging visitors is a key part of any church communication strategy. While in-person interactions and communications are of the utmost importance, you can support your efforts with technology! 

At first glance, churches might seem like unlikely targets for cybercrime. After all, why target churches or nonprofit organizations when there’s more money to make by exploiting the vulnerabilities of wealthier corporations?

When coming up with strategies for your church website design, you absolutely have to consider the mobile design of your site. It is said that more than 50% of all website traffic is on mobile devices. Google uses mobile-first indexing, which means that they’re looking at the mobile version of your site to determine where it should rank in search results.

These two facts should be enough to encourage you to prioritize your church mobile website design—and we’re here to show you just how easy it can be! 

If you’re tackling your church’s graphic design, you’ve likely had to design church social media graphics. Whether you’re posting on Instagram or Facebook, creating eye-catching posts that clearly convey the necessary information can be difficult.
