ChurchCMS Overview
The internet is a very powerful medium; if leveraged correctly, it can be a very effective ministry tool. ChurchCMS is a full-featured, industrial-strength content management system allowing YOU to manage your site. You don't have to learn how to code HTML or pay somebody to do it for you. You don't have to send change requests, wait for the updates, and send more changes because YOU control your content. This allows you to focus on your ministry and it's message instead of simply managing a website. ChurchCMS is a highly scalable and reliable CMS engine that gives you the power to update and maintain your site. ChurchCMS is powerful but extremely simple to use. Anyone in your organization can become a web contributor in a matter of minutes.
What is Content Management? An effective website is constantly changing. Traditionally, the person who managed those changes was a person with the technical expertise in HTML, web servers and development tools. A Content Management System or CMS means that you can maintain all of the text, links, graphics, and any other "digital asset" on your site without having to modify the code that renders your site. The idea is that people who have the knowledge can convey their knowledge without anyone having to make code changes. In the past, knowledge workers had to rely on a technical person or group to make changes to their website. This always leads to mistakes and untimely updates. A typical church or ministry generally does not have the technical resources available to maitain a site. As a result most ministry websites today remain static because the knowledge worker cannot get his message to site. ChurchCMS seeks to solve the problem by allowing the knowlege worker to make the updates. This fullfills your vision of effectively communicating to your audience in a timely, effective manner. |
