Scott Ballard

Founder of The Strategic Church

With over 17 years in church ministry, I've seen both the inspiring moments and learned valuable lessons from well-meaning mistakes. My journey has been deeply shaped by integrating technology and digital strategy to enhance communication and streamline church management systems.

These experiences, while complex, have been both challenging and immensely rewarding. I'm here to help you leverage digital tools effectively in your ministry, allowing you to focus on truly knowing, loving, and serving those God brings to your church—ensuring they feel valued and deeply connected within your community.
