Build: Do it yourself
This class is the doing. Each module teaches a skill you could apply in any platform, then shows it being done in one so you can follow along. The written lesson always stands on its own; the video is a demonstration, not the curriculum.
What you'll walk away with: By the end you'll have a live church website, an app home screen your congregation can use, working online giving with valid statements, and a weekly rhythm that keeps it all current.
