Gurus is an event that brings together producers, directors, creative team members, Photoshop pros, shooters, Final Cut masters, FOH engineers, lighting directors, wireless techs, stage managers and more. They just happen to work in a church, like you. They come because they have a heart for service and a passion for the work.  It is a great time to learn you’re not alone—there is a whole world out there of people who do what you do, who have the same pressures, challenges, budget constrains, volunteer retention, that you do, because they too work for a church.

LET’S GET STARTED

Create a pictogram that describes these six words. PRESSURE, DELIRIOUS, LUCKY, SUSPENSE, DANGEROUS AND JOYFUL. Use only four straight lines and circle for each one. You can arrange the lines and circle in whatever fashion you desire, but you can only use the four lines and the circle. The lines must be of equal length and not divided in any way and the circle must be kept whole.

Since the beginning of Fellowship Church in 1990, Ed Young has presented the gospel with creativity and excellence. As the church began to grow from its original 150 attendees, more and more pastors and church leaders were asking questions about the explosive growth. Even though Fellowship Church was a long way from having all the answers, Ed decided to offer a conference to allow pastors to come together and discover the awesome power of the local church. After all, Ed had a lot of questions when he started Fellowship Church. He looked for resources that could answer his questions and help him tackle the difficulties he was facing. He began dialoguing with other church leaders and discovered that everyone was asking the same questions.

Ed realized a forum was needed where leaders could find answers. So in 1997 it began – the C3 Conferences. The first year was a gathering of just a few hundred pastors, leaders and volunteers. Over the years, C3 has not been afraid to provide the raw, real-life answers to questions that leaders wanted but everyone was afraid to address. Today, C3 has exploded to include thousands of leaders from all backgrounds and experiences seeking creative ways to implement God’s vision in their churches.

C3 now encompasses participants from all over the United States and across the globe. People come to hear Ed and other influential church leaders directly address topics that relate to the highs and lows of serving in the local church. People leave with a renewed perspective of God’s purpose for their ministry, motivated and better-equipped to lead their churches in today’s challenging environment.

1. CMS Usability

What is CMS ?

In computing, a content management system (CMS) is a document centric collaborative application for managing documents and other content. A CMS is often a web application and often it is used as a method of managing web sites and web content.

Among the CMS systems available to the public WordPress provides the most intuitive administration of content that I’ve had to work with. Whether you keep it simple and focus on copy or if your desire is for plenty images and videos, WordPress allows you to manage your content with ease.

2. Creative Potential

WordPress is quickly becoming the best friend of front end web designers. Practically any WP theme is highly customizable and the creative possibilities are endless. Each site can have it’s own brand applied to it. For any designer who has steered away from getting into the programming language world WP is a great way to get your feet wet bits at a time.

2. Stability

For the average web user the idea of having to keep their website running at it’s highest possible capacity is a task to be feared. It can take an extreme amount of time to understand what is needed to maintain personal websites. With WP you it’s easy to make updates to your posts, images, plug-ins and just about anything in its system. You would think that with a system with so much to offer would have some stability issues. Since new versions are always being released it’s basically child’s play to update your current version to the latest. And all this can be done right in your admin panel.
