Dreaming of a New Church Web Site Design? 50-Plus Places to Get Inspired
If you’re looking to version 2.0 of your church Web site, or just 1.0, getting one in the first place … feast on these sites for inspiration. I visited most of these sites in the process of redesigning my church’s site.
Obviously, some of these examples aren’t in the “realistic” realm for most churches, but they can provide a framework, or a Big Brother to look up to and emulate.
Get a notepad handy and jot down the ideas and looks you like!
