ChurchMag Reader Survey: Desktop OS and Mobile Preferences

April 30, 2018
by Jeremy Smith

Previously, we had introduced the 2018 ChurchMag Reader Survey, talking about how we want to continue to improve ChurchMag, which would require your help. In doing so, we want to also share some details with you guys, the readers. I didn’t explain why though. The reason for sharing this data, at least a macro view of the data, is in order to improve the community with you guys. One of the best ways of developing community, as any youth pastor or college pep rally organizer knows, is to find commonality between all who are present. We want you guys to see some of the other shared or opposing interests that our readers hold.

Today’s post focuses on the tech and software side of things. Specifically, which desktop operating system are you rocking and what is the mobile device you are using?

Ben White: World Famous Christian Stock Photographer [Podcast #208]

When you see his face, you may very well recognize him.

Is he on your church website? Maybe the latest Christian publication you read? Or perhaps your favorite blog?

It’s hard to say where you may have seen his face, but with his contribution to Creative Commons 0 photography with a Christian focus (see what we did there?), his photos are among the favorites of Unsplash users.

Nintendo Switch [Saturday Morning Review]

I haven’t had a games console or played too many computer games in a long time. My last console was an XBox 360 at University and in the last five years, I think I’ve bought 5 games (only two weren’t iOS games). Well, that all ended a couple of weeks back when I grabbed the Nintendo Switch.

Star Wars Interactive Galaxy Map

I’m here to bring you the content that you the fans have wanted, no needed, even if you didn’t know you needed it. It’s true, I have not only found a map of the entire Star Wars Galaxy, but it’s interactive and open sources, so it’s ever-evolving

The map featuring planets from the Original Trilogy, Prequel Trilogy, The Force Awakens, The Last Jedi, Rogue One, The Clone Wars, Rebels, and Solo.

Needed to understand how the outer rim compared to the lost planet of Jakku, where Alderaan was before it “disappeared, or really get into the weeds and find Byss, Corellia, and Kuat? I’ve got the map for you.

2018 ChurchMag Reader Survey

April 25, 2018
by Jeremy Smith

If you have been following ChurchMag for a while, in 2014 and then again in 2016, we put together a ChurchMag Reader Survey asked you guys for some information. At the time, we were wanting to improve our website and learn how better to engage you, the reader. I’m sad to say we did not do a very good job (myself specifically) with actually compiling the data and making it useful.

All of that changes today.

We are going to share the basic results of the data with you guys, noting some things you guys have previously asked for, and quantifying the details in comparison to the previous surveys. But to go over two and four-year-old data will not do much for you or for us. We had our chance and blew it. But we are asking for a second chance with this and are willing to pay for it.

We now have a 2018 ChurchMag Reader Survey where you could win Amazon gift cards, just by participating.
