About this ebook
Church leaders today are far too busy to waste precious time and money on ineffective websites and fruitless online activity. Church Websites is a book for those ministers which explains how things work in the online world in simple language. This book explains the "why" behind the various online activities so ministers can focus their resources on the right things for maximum effectiveness.
It doesn't matter that you are doing things right if you aren't doing the right things. Once you know the right things to do, figuring out how to do those things right is much easier. Church Websites will help you know the right things.
The tools change. But the principles stay consistent. Specific techniques come and go. But the general strategies that work are still the same as they have always been. When it comes to building an audience online, the same overarching principles are true now that were true when I wrote my first blog post back in 2005.
This book lays out a proven strategy for your church or ministry to reach more people online through both your website and social media based on my first-hand experience working with a wide variety of clients for more than a decade. My first freelance client was a parachurch ministry. Over the years I've worked with everything from small churches up through large corporate clients and major universities. Not only do these concepts work for all of those types of organizations, but they are also exactly how we continue to reach more people with our own international ministry.
Church Websites will help you be more successful by showing you the important stuff to focus on so you don't waste a lot of time.

Chris Cree was a merchant marine officer and flew off of aircraft carriers in jets with the US Navy. After leaving the Navy he spent 12 years working on the docks in various marine cargo operations positions. In 2007 Chris turned his blogging hobby into a new career developing websites, both in his own business as a freelancer and as an employee of a rapidly growing firm. This job change provided the flexibility to eventually leave the coast where the ships were, move to the mountains and go to Bible college. Chris and his wife Lisa founded NewCREEations Ministries in 2013 as a vehicle to answer God’s call on their lives to guide believers into their full inheritance in the Kingdom of God. They lived in Scotland for a number of years as missionaries. While there, they established a local campus of an international Bible college. In 2021 God gave them a clear word to pass the baton to local leaders raised up on their team and return to the States. Through NewCREEations, Chris and Lisa focus on ministering life-changing Bible teaching, helping believers experience the Kingdom of God and His goodness in practical ways which improve their lives. They travel and teach, publish books, and produce video content along with a variety of other materials. They are working on establishing and growing a new extension of NewCREEations Ministries called Kingdom Mindsets, a discipleship platform to fulfill the Great Commission by connecting anointed ministries with the Body of Christ. You can learn more and contact them with questions or other inquiries via their NewCREEations.org website.
