#RuralMinistry and More.
One of our new Advertisers, Vinci Genius has sent MinistryPlace.Net an early Christmas present! It’s called the Vinci Tab M II. Vinci is manufactured by a company in Canada named Rullingnet targeted toward children and parents of young children (under 9). The goal of the tablet is to provide a solid […]
I know, most of the Christmas shopping season for many has passed, and those still shopping have hit full-on panic. Let me help you calm down little bit and give you a bit of advice…. Don’t fall for the cheap tablets, just don’t…. I know that supplies of the latest […]
There are sometimes that a full laptop is not really needed, but you need a little more than maybe a tablet can offer…. That is the niche that Google shoots for with their “ChromeBook” products. I have watched the technology and how they have improved the products and marketing for […]
I wanted to try something a little different. Since this is a tech site and a ministry site, I thought I’d delve into the tech side for a post. Now, I’ve established in earlier posts that I’m not your typical trendy youth pastor. As such, I do not own an […]
There are a lot of options available with smartphones. they are becoming cheaper and cheaper every day. With a lot of carriers, you can now get a smartphone for free on contract. But what if you want to go the no-contract route? Or what if you need to replace a […]

All the way from k-12, they have implemented iPads, and the combination netbook/tablet pictured here for EVERY student. I use a unit from Asus […]
First things first. I am a member of the generation that sees the “Christian Subculture” we created during the 80’s and 90’s as silly at best, greedy at worst. Now we can move on… It seems that Family Christian Stores has made a number of the leading tech blogs this […]
After some dealing on Craigslist, I became the owner of a rooted Nook Tablet. I may do a full review another day, but this Nook has been stripped of its factory OS and been given Android 2.3.7 (4.0 is in progress, but a little buggy still for daily use..) So […]
Or.. I will be upgrading from a broken iPad soon….
I have been blessed with an unexpected upgrade, due to some network issues with T-Mobile that I do not fully understand. The result was T-Mobile moving me from a Samsung Galaxy SII to an HTC One S. The One S is a classy looking device, even if it does not […]
In a rural ministry context, you can find yourself with little choice in school for your children. There isn’t a christian school nearby.
