ChurchCrunch Community Blogs – Get In the Pipe!

Posted by John Saddington on Apr 6, 2009

Want to get in our Community Blogs section on the right sidebar? We’d love to have you! It’s powered by Yahoo Pipes and using Wordpress’ built-in Feed Parser.

Here’s what it’ll take:

  • Must have an ‘active’ and ‘consistent’ blog. This means that you update regularly (but no spammers please).
  • A good portion of your content is focused on the use of web technology for ministry.
  • If someone called you a technoevangelist it wouldn’t upset you.
  • You use Feedburner for your RSS syndication.
  • You’re sporting one of our delicious ChurchCrunch-Love Squares on your blog.

Got it?

Leave a comment below with a link to your blog and a general overview/estimate of your posting schedule and content-coverage… and make sure you’ve got one of our Love Squares and we’ll get you in!

Also, every month I’ll randomly select a blogger from the community and hook them up with something “nice,” like a new Wordpress Theme perhaps…

Cool, jump on it.

  • Buzz it!

  6. Hey John –

    I just started a 2nd blog in February with ministry and technology as the focus.

    it's http://www.ministrytechblog.com

    my goal is to post 3x a week, with at least one of those being a short review/recommendation of a piece of hardware and at least 1 of those being a short review/recommendation of software or webapp.

    i'm trying to target the tech novice in a small church (just a few staff members), who doesn't have the time to be thinking about technology, but doesn't realize all the cool stuff out there that could be possibly making his or her job a bit easier. so, most of my stuff is pretty common stuff, that probably most of your readers are already using or know about.

    I've put the "love squares" as an item on my todo list for after Easter.

    Mike

    • Lon,

      Thanks man! Great stuff there… you're in!

      john

  19. I was actually surprised to see a blog centered around the same exact motives that mine is as well. I'd love to be a part of your Yahoo! Pipe :) I just added your square to my blog…

    http://www.christnology.com/
    Post Freq: 1+/week

    I look forward to hearing from you, God bless,
    -Jeremy

  20. Hey John…

    I'll throw mine into the mix. It's fairly new so I imagine it will evolve with age. I just added your square.

    http://newlutheran.com

    Post frequency, on average, is hovering around 2-3 posts per week. Themes are primarily focused around the Lutheran church, but apply to others as well. So far there's been discussion on average age of church members, church image (contemporary vs. traditional), baptism, liturgy, and here lately church technology has been a big topic on my twitter feed. I'll be addressing more of that through the blog over the coming weeks.

    • Can you get a Feedburner account?

        • You should make sure your feed auto-redirects…!

          ;)
