A church website built for non-technical staff.
You don't need to know HTML, CSS, or hosting terminology to run an exceptional church website that welcomes your community.
Church Sites Live is built specifically for non-technical church staff. It removes all code, hosting cPanels, and complex plugin dashboards, replacing them with a clear in-browser Studio at /admin where pastors and administrators can update service times, upload sermons, and edit event text in under a minute for $19/month.

Pastors went to seminary to shepherd people—not to debug website code.
Most church administrators and pastors entered ministry with a passion for people, prayer, and community care. Yet on Monday mornings, they find themselves staring at a confusing web dashboard full of database backup warnings, broken PHP script alerts, and nested visual layout shortcodes. When making a simple update feels like disarming a bomb, website maintenance becomes a source of dread. Staff put off updates, and the church website slowly becomes an outdated relic.
"I just wanted to add our Christmas Eve candle-lighting service time without having to call a developer."
⚠️ Common Weekly Friction
- • Intimidating technical jargon (DNS, cPanel, FTP, PHP, SQL).
- • Complex block editors that shift unpredictably when text is typed.
- • Constant anxiety about accidentally deleting critical site elements.
- • Overdependence on external webmasters who charge $100+/hour.
What happens when a church website falls behind.
A broken website workflow isn't just an inconvenience—it impacts your ministry, pastoral time, and first-time visitor turnout every Sunday.
High Agency Retainer Costs
Paying hundreds of dollars every month to web development agencies just to change a line of text or post an audio file.

Pastors and administrators waste hours on technical troubleshooting instead of pastoral care and community ministry.
