About us

Built by believers,
for believers

Ministry Built is the home of church tech. We build tools for churches, pastors, and people of faith, and we curate the largest directory of faith-based technology on the web.

Our story

It started in 2020 with a simple idea: build a Bible note-taking app that actually helps people grow in their faith. During the global lockdown, we taught ourselves to code and built Church Notes from scratch.

What began as a lockdown project quickly grew into something bigger. We partnered with Crossway to bring the ESV Bible into the app, launched on iOS and Android, and watched a global community of believers form around it. Today, over 50,000 people use Church Notes to study the Bible and take sermon notes.

But we didn't stop there. We saw churches struggling with fragmented tools for scheduling, volunteering, job postings, and sermon prep. So we built more. Preach Notes for pastors. My Church Calendar for events. Church Volunteering for coordination. Church Jobs Today for ministry hiring.

Ministry Built is the home for all of it. It's also the largest directory of church tech on the web, helping churches discover the right tools for their ministry. Whether we built it or someone else did, if it serves the church, it belongs here.

Our mission

Build tools and resources to promote the Gospel of Jesus Christ

We believe technology should serve your faith. Every feature we build is designed to help you study God's word, stay connected in church, and live a faith-fulfilled life.

What we believe

Faith-first design

Every feature we build starts with one question: does this help someone grow closer to God?

Simplicity matters

Technology should serve your faith, not distract from it. We keep things clean, fast, and intuitive.

Global vision

We want to reach anyone with access to modern technology, connecting them closer to Christ and his word.

Community driven

Built by believers, for believers. Your feedback shapes every update we ship.
