faith.tools

Hey, I'm Cam Pak, creator of faith.tools! 👋 You might run into a problem when you try to Google "top Christian apps" or "best Bible apps", and the problem is that you'll most likely see the same exact apps on old blog posts that haven't been updated in a year or many years. But... where's the rest of the great apps that help Christians on their walks with God and community? What about a place where brand new apps created to help Christians, where can they go? Oh, and the App Store and Google Play store don't typically feature apps for Christians as app of the day. What if there was an alternative to those stores that helped Christians discover the best apps? Thus, faith.tools was born. As of writing this, there are 313 apps, tools, and services to help Christians love God, love others, and find freedom. There's a Twitter / X community called "faith.tools Christians in Tech" now that has grown to ~120+ community members. And, I'm seeing more and more Christians in tech collaborate with one another versus develop in silos. The hope of faith.tools is to help people discover the best apps for Christians and to help showcase the heart and stories of those behind the tools.

I’m loving this! Great job Cameron!

Hey Cam! Fantastic idea. I like how you pitch it as "App store for Christian apps" Do you actually plan on turning it into an app store, now that Apple has to allow for alternate stores in EU? :)

Congrats! So exciting to see the movement and energy behind this. Psyched to see the stage set for faith.tools and the resources it can provide for the community.

This is truly awesome, Cam! Congratulations on the launch of faith.tools. The journey of finding tools that not only support but also enrich the Body of Christ has been a challenging one up until now. What you're addressing is a significant gap - the difficulty in discovering up-to-date, meaningful Christian apps and tools. By curating a dedicated platform like faith.tools, you're not just making it easier to find resources that help us love God and love others; you're also fostering a much-needed sense of community among Christians in tech. This can spark collaboration, innovation, and perhaps most importantly, a sense of unity and purpose in leveraging technology for faith. The fact that faith.tools already has a collection of 313 apps, along with a growing community of over 120 tech-savvy Christians, is testament to the platform's potential impact. It's amazing to hear that faith.tools is not just a directory but a community where the stories and hearts behind these apps are shared and celebrated. I'm genuinely excited about the future of faith.tools and the ripple effect it will have on both developers and users within the Christian community. I hope this launch inspires other Christian software engineers to be bold, innovative, and collaborative in creating more tools that serve our faith and fellowship. Here's to faith.tools leading the way in connecting us with technology that enriches our spiritual journey. Godspeed, Cam!

What was the first app that helped you in your faith?

congrats on the launch Cam!
