A welcoming front door.
A deeper place to grow.
A working website concept for Redeemer Lutheran Church, with a teaching library and a preview of life together online.
Seven stops. One vision.
A suggested 15-minute walkthroughA first visit
Can a newcomer picture a Sunday at Redeemer?
A path to learn
Read a lesson, mark it complete, and continue the course. Would people return?
The Word, beyond Sunday
Browse real church recordings and try searching for the installation service.
Mercy in our community
Can someone find help or a meaningful way to serve?
Our pastor’s teaching
Explore the profile and selected published resources.
Life as a member
Are announcements, serving, and contacting the church easier?
A simpler church office
Can staff compose one announcement and choose how it reaches people?
What comes first
A useful first release.
Launch the visitor experience, Pastor Johnson's profile, and the first reviewed teaching series. Then pilot member communications with a small group before inviting the congregation.
Ben records and edits. Pastor Johnson teaches and reviews. The office maintains church information and announcements.
What works in this concept
Two guided courses with ten reading lessons, device-local progress, fifteen real YouTube recordings, selected published resources, two mission pages, Plum editing, and the announcement/signup walkthrough.
What is still a preview
The new reading guides and course lessons are original drafts for pastoral review, not teaching attributed to Pastor Johnson. Learner accounts and progress across devices are not connected. Member identity, directory records, prayer and board messages, and text/email delivery remain demonstrations.
Teaching workflow
Review the first course with Pastor Johnson, record his lessons, then add reviewed transcripts and discussion prompts. Full-service recordings retain their source titles; sermon excerpts and Scripture indexing need editorial work.
What needs discovery
Church360 exports, consent, member roles, reply routing, volunteer scheduling, private documents, and Vanco/ledger giving history.
