For the church communicator who does it all
Be the one in the staff meeting with the answer.
Short, practical courses in church communications, websites and AI. So the next time your pastor asks, "Can we do something with AI?" you already have the plan.

You're doing the work of a whole team
It's Thursday night, and Sunday is coming fast. The slides aren't done, the website still lists last month's event, and someone just asked if you can "do something with AI."
The list never gets shorter
Bulletin, social, email, website, video, and now AI. Every week brings more channels and the same number of hours.
Nobody taught you this
Most church communicators learned on the job. It's easy to feel behind and wonder if you're the only one just winging it. You're not.
The message matters too much
People are looking for hope. When our communication is unclear, they miss the invitation. The harvest is abundant, but the workers are few (Matt 9:37).
Your guide
You don't have to figure this out alone
I know how unseen and thankless this work can feel. I've spent more than 25 years building online communities, including a community of more than 35,000 church leaders, and I wrote Church Communications: Methods and Marketing.
Allred Academy is where I teach what I've learned in plain language, so you walk into every meeting as the person who knows what to do next. More about me

Picture your next staff meeting
Without a plan
Someone asks about the website, social media or AI, and you're guessing. You nod, take notes and walk out with three new tasks and no idea where to start.
With a plan
You answer the AI question before it's finished. You show the calendar, explain the why, and walk out with a yes. You're the one the team turns to.
Walk into your next meeting ready
