YouVersion Interactive Bible Community Launches
Posted by: | CommentsYouVersion, an “online Bible that enables community and collaboration like never before,” has officially launched.
I’ve not surfed around much (just created my account), but I saw that one of my favorite Bible versions is used — the English Standard Version.
Here is a description from the site of what YouVersion is all about:
- Organize – YouVersion empowers you to organize the content that’s important to you!
- Share - Simply share meaningful content with anyone, anytime, anywhere.
- Community - YouVersion makes it easy to connect and collaborate with others.
- Contribute - With YouVersion you have the power to share your content with your closest friends, family, or anyone online!
This online venture is a ministry of LifeChurch.tv. Learn more about YouVersion at the Swerve blog, including upcoming Bible versions to be included.
Send Me Your Church Job Descriptions Please
Posted by: | CommentsEvery now and then (and increasingly) I get requests by church business administrators or pastors looking for a job description for a communications director.
As evidenced by the growing attendance at MinistryCOM and with big churches just getting even bigger, churches and pastors are recognizing the need for this vital role …
So, I’d like to create a resource page here with job descriptions that those looking to develop this position can download, print them off and customize it for their unique needs.
Here’s what I’d like you to do … send me a Word document with your job description (and include permission to do so) and I’ll create a page here for them all to be downloaded in one handy place. If you’d rather your church name not be on it, please indicate that (or just take off your church’s information).
