The following is a featured post from Brad Novosad, District Chi Alpha director in Nebraska and SALT director for the southern Great Plains Area.
Shortly after I gave my life to Christ in September 1992, I got plugged into my local church and started serving. There was only one place for a guy with my skills - running the overhead projector! Someone had to sit up in front of the congregation, near the worship team and manually change the “slides” after each chorus or song. And then a new technology came along that moved me to the sound booth, sitting at a computer - the video projector. No longer was there a need to sit at the front of the room and manually flip slides. Instead, we were put right next to the sound guys and clicking a button on a computer to advance each slide and song. What an upgrade!
Remember those days? When giving was done primarily through passing a bucket on Sunday mornings to collect cash and checks, announcements were only given from the front and written on a piece of paper that was handed to you at the front door, and everyone brought their bible in book form?

Technology should bring many upgrades to our church:
- It’s easier to use than what we’ve had before so we can spend more time focusing on what’s important
- It brings added value to our experience
- It has an immediate impact on your people and the kingdom of God overall
With Americans now spending an average of 4.7 hours a day on their smartphones, it’s time to look at technologies that will help your church capture a huge opportunity.
- An app for your church will help keep your congregation connected to you and to each other.
- Custom giving and pages that allow your church to register and pay for events
- Mass text alerts to keep your congregation updated on important church events

- The norm today
- Having the Paperless App brings your church up-to-date with current technologies and is vital for a population that is spending a majority of time on their screens.
- Your friend
