Wasting Money On the Samsung Note 7?

Wasting Money On the Samsung Note 7?

September 30, 2016
by Jeremy Smith

If you haven’t heard about the news of the Samsung Note 7 problems, because you decided it was better to live like Harry Potter under your uncle’s stairs, there has been an issue with the Samsung Note 7 battery blowing up. Not blowing up as in it’s amazing, as in explosions, fires, destroyed cars, burnt children, and now being denied airline travel because of your phone blowing up. It’s honestly bad for Samsung and not just because they are going to have to write off 2% of their net income for the year (but honestly, they get all that tax credit now, so it’s not horrible for them).

A Church Website Case Study: Should I Use a Custom WordPress Theme? [Series]

A Church Website Case Study: Should I Use a Custom WordPress Theme? [Series]

September 29, 2016

If you aren’t a theme designer then you’ll probably use a theme and customize it to fit the needs of your church. Some website themes present a wide variety of options in front of you such as fonts, header styles, colors, button drop shadows, and more. These can be great for people who don’t know how to code (but know how to design), but are there any downsides? What are the problems with using a stock theme for your site?

December Giving Starts In September: Is Your Church Ready?

December Giving Starts In September: Is Your Church Ready?

September 28, 2016
by Kent Woodyard

As Summer turns to Fall, kids return to school, and football once again takes over my TV, I know it’s time to dust off one of my favorite catch phrases, “December giving starts in September.”

That line will no doubt work its way into hundreds of my emails and calls to Mogiv’s “partner pastors” this month. And now it has worked its way into an article headline as well! Tweets and Facebook posts are sure to follow. #SeptemberIsTheNewDecember

In case the message of my catchphrase isn’t already apparent, here’s what I mean: if your church waits until December to start thinking about year-end giving, you’ve waited too long. And why exactly should you care about year-end giving? Quite a few reasons, actually.

Smartphones can be great tools for productivity…and a good distraction. Having an app won’t necessarily help you stay more focused or get more done, but if you want to use your phone for productive purposes, that’s a good first step.

Should A Christian Own A Hackintosh?

Should A Christian Own A Hackintosh?

September 27, 2016
by Jeremy Smith

I was a part of a conversation on a community group that looks at church and technology that discussed a site selling cheap computers designed to become “Hackintoshes” (computer built to run Apple’s OS X that are not built by Apple). It’s another conversation that we saw with indie artists who were not getting paid and bigger artists coming along side them.

In my mind, I thought this was an easy conversation. It is illegal to have, so you should not purchase it nor should you endorse it. Apparently I was alone in this conversation.
