Times they are a changin’. ¬†10 Years ago, we asked our church members to put their cell phones away during the service because we didn’t want to be distracted. ¬†Nowadays, people bring their mobile phone’s to church with them because its always with them, and they want to be able to follow along with the scripture on their favorite Bible App. ¬†Let’s face it, smartphones are here to stay. ¬†By 2015, smartphone/tablet use is predicted to outweigh traditional computer use. ¬†What is the mission of your church? ¬†Although the details may differ, I’m guessing that the ultimate goal is to reach the lost with the message of the gospel. ¬†What better way to do that than with a mobile app for your church. ¬†Reach your community on the devices they have with them all the time. ¬†Some of our features include:
- Push Notifications – Send out important alerts to everyone using your app. ¬†Remind them to bring a friend on Sunday, or that the pot-luck has changed to 2:30 instead of 2:00.
- Events Calendar – Post all of your upcoming events so that your church members know what is going on throughout the week
- Sermons – Add your sermon series directly to the app so your church members can get caught up in case they miss a service.
