10 Top Church Technology Resources For Leaders [2025]
Managing church technology can be one of the most overwhelming aspects of ministry. Whether it’s the sound system, livestreaming, or church management software, it often feels like the tools that are supposed to help us are just another source of frustration:
- You lose valuable time trying to troubleshoot tech issues right before a service.
- Important tasks, like tracking member engagement, fall through the cracks because your systems don’t work together.
