We’re kicking off a new blog series called 25 Stories from 25 Years. It’s a celebration of what God has done through us and the Christian organizations we have served over 25 years.
Grace Baptist Church of Tyler, Texas has been partnering with OurChurch.Com since 2010 with the Custom Pro website package. As a part of their Custom Pro package, they receive church SEO services and a free redesign to their website every three years.
Grace Baptist is a very traditional church, yet has done a fantastic job embracing the web as a way to help achieve their mission. Below are a few highlights of how Grace is using their website effectively:
- New updated design: Keeping with their church colors, they have created an updated look and feel to their website. The new design is still traditional, reflecting the style of the church itself.
- Audio and Video Sermon: They have made it very easy for someone to either listen or watch a sermon from a previous service. The services are indexed by date on a page that is easy to navigate and well presented.
- Live streaming: For those who want to watch a service live, they also offer live streaming of their services. Simply click on the menu titled “Live Broadcast” and if a live service is available it automatically connects to the video stream.
- Bible Conferences: They host an annual Bible conference, brining in speakers from around the country. They use their website to provide information about past conferences and upcoming conferences (when details are available).
All of these elements allow Grace Baptist Church to accomplish their mission online.
