    Mobile Ap

    Here is an app that Saddleback Church uses. It's really amazing. We are going to look further into this possibility at Nashville First. Has anyone else experimented with anything like this?

    We have only mentioned the idea casually. Would be interested in your experience, what all you put in it.

    Prestonwood Baptist, a church of 20,000 or so near us, uses the same app. Must be template based.

    We have considered working on an app but have just discovered that most web hosts offer a mobile version. We just activated ours this week. If you access our website from a mobile device, the mobile site will come up. If you access from a laptop or desktop, the full site comes up. There is a checklist that allows us to decide what pages we want to be active on the mobile edition and which ones we don't. Soon, we hope to have our messages and online giving activated for mobile. Remains to be seen how feasible that is.

    Eventually, we'd still like to do an app, but our urgency has evaporated for now. Too often in my ministry "good enough" ends up being the enemy of real excellence. This is a case in point.

    Guys, here is a link to the company that apparently is producing this app. I will keep you posted on what we do.
