Are you ready to celebrate?
First, I would like to acknowledge a few people that made this possible:
Thank you …
- John Saddington
He started ChurchMag and its predecessors ChurchCrunch and the 8BIT Network. No John, no blog. Thank you, John. - 8BIT
8BIT builds amazing WordPress products, and over the years, they have become passionate about publishing. The roots of ChurchMag are tangled in 8BIT, as they were some of the first writers for ChurchCrunch and the 8BIT Network. Thank you John (again), Tom, Chris and Jared. - ChurchMag Authors Network
This band of merry men are quickly becoming the base of ChurchMag. As regular writers, advisors and experts of awesomeness, this is the heart of ChurchMag. Thank you Jeremy, James, Jay, Phil and Chris. - ChurchMag Guest Writers
There are over 40 writers who are actively submitting posts to ChurchMag. Thank you for lending your expertise and passion! - ChurchMag Advertisers
In the world wide web of no advertisements and sponsored posts, there is no ChurchMag. You are the life blood of ChurchMag and we are all grateful. Thank you! - YOU!
If you’re reading ChurchMag right now, I thank you! The reason why all of these people have invested their time, talent and money, is because of you. The ChurchMag readers are the soul of ChurchMag. As long as you keep reading, we’ll be sure to post anther 10,000. Thank you.

SWEET! Look forward to those giveaways – bought the Types and Views plugins. They are incredible.
Personally, I ‘m so glad I found this blog a few months back. Wish I’d been involved longer. It give a nice blend of useful, ministry, informative, creative, and absurd (in a good way). Love the posts. Congrats on great blog, Eric!

No Android apps? Not unexpected, but still a pity…
Eric Dye says
I know, right?
The marketing of Android apps are very low key. It’s not a lack of interest on our part — that’s for sure!
