I see the church submission form, but will there be a way to submit the churches of entire denominations whose directory of churches is publicly available?

SermonAudio.com, which also has mobile apps, already has similar functionality to this app. Why should churches use ChurchMint instead of SermonAudio? SermonAudio does cost money, so will ChurchMint be providing these services for free?

This is pretty early in the process, so yes there will be a way to get whole directories of churches from denominations, even if I have to import those manually.

Sermon audio and podcasting is only a small part of what ChurchMint does overall. I have looked at other services like and including SermonAudio.com but they really aren't in the same realm as ChurchMint is.

I love niche apps like this.

Is it a just-for-fun project, or are you planning to monetize it? If so, how?

Monitization will be from SaaS style tiered plans that churches will pay for depending on push message volume and stored audio files. The app will always be free to use and churches can add info, locations, and events free.

Great plan. I love it.

My only suggestion would be to figure out the free message volume and storage size...then half it...then half it again. Give the free plan a paltry size. I think it's fair to give only a taste and require people to upgrade to get the real functionality.

I'm sure others disagree with me, and I'd love to hear their opinions, but if the goal is paying customers then make people pay...

Looks like a very useful app, thanks for building this!
