Preparing for the iPad
If your church or ministry needs resources to supplement your creative vision on a limited budget, have no fear, there are plenty of FREE and PAID resources out there that are scalable for any budget.
Here’s a list of four media resources I personally use — just the tip of the iceberg. What websites would you add to this list?
Our good friends over at Center for Church Communication, the non-profit parent of Church Marketing Sucks, have put together a comprehensive list of resources to help the “church communicate better.”
I can’t pinpoint exactly when it happened, but at some point in my work in the church world I developed a distaste for “church words.” It has nothing to do with the meaning behind the words themselves, but purely with the opportunity to present biblical concepts to a world that has built knee-jerk defenses to certain key words.
I took my son to watch Alice In Wonderland this past weekend. During the movie I jotted down two statements that challenged me as a creative in ministry.
I hope they’ll challenge as well as inspire you as you work to impact the Kingdom of God this week.
This is just a quick post to take a random audience poll… In various conversations over the past few weeks, I’ve been amazed by the different approaches ministries take to plan for Easter (typically the biggest Sunday of the year for most Churches). Some begin planning months in advance, while some pull things together only [...]
If you’re going to be around your desk or laptop today, I’d like to encourage you to watch (or listen to) the main sessions from the Unleash conference at NewSpring. I watched last year’s and was really inspired.
Continuing the conversation from my post earlier this week, I thought I would share a few more resources I’ve dug up on developing web apps for the iPad. First, because a few of you have asked, let me take a second to explain why I’m going the web app route over creating a full native [...]
There was a time when I loved IE6 more than any other browser, but that was between 2001 and 2004. They owned the browser market then — successfully whipping Netscape into submission. Now, ten years later and a web designer, it’s a thorn in my side.
Here we are in March, only weeks away from the iPad’s launch, and I’m willing to bet that most of you still don’t know what to make of the iPad. Some of us were expecting a radical new operating system and tactile touchscreen feedback. Others were wanting a machine to replace the need for a [...]
It’s hard to believe that it has been nearly a month since we released The Prayer Engine out into the wild. In the weeks since we launched our new baby, it has been a blast to see how users have used the tool and really “made it their own.” Here are a few of our [...]
It’s getting to be that time of year. As the weather is warming up, folks have a desire to learn more about how to take their ministries and churches to the next level.
It’s also that time of year where Twitter gets flooded with lots of conference hashtags, and you get to know the professional conference [...]
Every month for the next six month’s I’m meeting with Tony Morgan and a group of ten other church leaders at West Ridge Church in Dallas, Georgia. I’m very humbled and excited to be a part of this coaching network.
Two things for sure — I am going to be eating well and I will be [...]
