I made some brief tutorials on how to use Mission Insite’s site to use their analytic services. Mission Insite provides reports for regions of interest to help recognize ministry opportunities. This can be a powerful asset for ministry planning, as it can help identify the baseline along many different axes, as one attempts to better align efforts with community needs. These axes include population size, age, ethnic background, family makeup, occupation and educational attainment, perceived spiritual needs, perceived physical needs, and opinion surveys on religion, politics, social and moral issues.

For example, if a multi-ethnic church had a strong initiative for teaching English as a foreign language, they might want to consider planting a church that focuses on the community to which they are reaching. They could make that decision in light of just talking with the folks they are working with, but to make a multi-year informed decision, it can help to get data on the entire community and look at various trend analyses.

First tutorial: Creating a Mission Insite Account

Why get access to Mission Insite? Who should get access to Mission Insite? How do you create a Mission Insite account? In this video I explain the how and why for getting a Mission Insite account.

Second tutorial: Logging Into Mission Insite

In this video, I explain how to log into Mission Insite. This service is at https://www.missioninsite.com (it redirects to https://acstechnologies.com/missioninsite). Not sure why the audio is choppy at the beginning. I appreciate your patience!

Third Tutorial:

What are Mission Insite reports? How might you use the insights from one of these reports for ministry? In this video I explain the service that acstechnologies.com provides, called Mission Insite. It is available at https://www.missioninsite.com. I explain what an Executive Insite report generates, and give some examples how these graphics and data can help you better plan your ministry. I encourage you to have your report in front of you.
