Standard Theme has made quite an impact since it was launched less than a year ago. We quickly established our sea-legs as a team, turned around, and released Standard Theme 2 in the summer. This was shortly followed by Live Theme and ChurchAnalytics. Our product line continues to receive an amazing response, and we’re truly grateful for those of you have that have jumped on board, but I hope you didn’t think for a minute that the 8BIT team was slowing down.
For the past couple of months, we’ve been hard at work continuing to improve our flagship product Standard Theme based on some key areas identified by us (we love to use it, too!) but also by many of you in the forums.

The Lord gives us community, encouragement, fellowship and belonging within our church family, it’s a reflection of how God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit live in loving community together.
In our creativity we need to remember that we are made in the image and likeness of God, and God is the greatest creator of them all. Therefore I believe that it should not be our desire or aim to be alone, but rather we should look in our creative endeavors to be in community with other creatives.
