LENOIR CITY, Tenn., Aug. 10, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — New survey results released today by Ministry Brands, the leading provider of software, services and information platforms for churches, ministries and those they serve, report 95 percent of church leaders say their reliance on digital tools and church software has increased from before the COVID-19 pandemic began. Close to 70 percent of respondents report their usage has increased significantly.

This digital transformation of church life is examined in The Cornerstones of Post-Pandemic Church Technology e-book, a summary of recent survey results gathered from 1,200 church leaders nationwide during April and May 2021.

• Nine out of 10 churches report live streaming will continue to be an important tool in the future, and 51 percent report launching this service during the pandemic as a member engagement tool.
• Church management system (ChMS) integration capabilities is one of the most important features churches look for in online giving platforms to simplify the management of this growing trend.
