Create projects are where we put our faith into action. Our volunteer teams build solutions to real-world problems, using the unique skills God has given us, to contribute to something bigger than ourselves.
Create projects happen in our city-based communities and online meetups. Check the Communities list to see if there's a meetup in a city near you!
What if the technology we build doesn’t just innovate, but redeem? What if our code, our designs, and our products aren’t just useful, but reflect the very heart of God?
We believe there is a way of building technology that redemptively changes the world while transforming those who build it. That's why we gather and build together as a community seeking to glorify God.
We build redemptive technology together in community using the 4D cycle from the FaithTech Playbook.
Each element of this cycle is accompanied with teaching and tools to help you utilise this uniquely biblical framework for building technology. To check it out, download a copy of the FaithTech Playbook by clicking below.
We reorient ourselves to see,
through the lens of Christ, those
most affected by the problem.
We involve the wisdom of
God, testing and refining our
approach continually.
We recognize that God
establishes our steps to develop
the solution and we co-develop
with the Holy Spirit.
We redefine impact as friendship
compounded by time and
measure and demonstrate our
impact redemptively.
If you have a desire to see tech leveraged to solve a problem you've seen in your community, city, ministry, mission, charity or church, we'd love to hear from you! Check out the information below on how to pitch your challenge to the volunteer teams in our community.
Prepare a 1-minute pitch describing the challenge you want to engage with the community to solve.
Provide details about your challenge and share the pitch you've prepared for the team to review.

The best way to get involved is to get plugged into the FaithTech community. If you’re in a city with a FaithTech community already, you can get involved there. Not near a city? Join one of our online meetups, or fill out our Create on-boarding form to get connected. Geography is no limitation! Our Cities host hackathons and sprints through the year, so you can also get involved in a Create project through these events. Check out our city pages for more information.
Our heart, at a city and global level, is to equip our Create teams to succeed. We offer an environment where teams can learn and grow together. Practically, the support resources we offer are:
There are two main models for Create projects that you can get involved in:
Time Limited: these are event-type projects, which you will find through Hackathons, Create programs, or other events. Here you know exactly when your involvement will start and end!
City-Based: each of our cities has a number of projects, with passionate volunteers who want to see them progress, sometimes through several MVP iterations. However, involvement levels are up to each volunteer – you get to decide. Whether you commit to a 2 day hackathon, a 4 week Sprint, or spend 1 year with a city project team, you can know that you are contributing to kingdom tech innovation.
Absolutely, this program is for people across tech, ministry, business, and charity. If you’re passionate to help design solutions to real-world problems, there’s a place for you. Each team ideally has a mixture of skills to bring balance and momentum. This will often include a mix of developers, researchers, a project manager, and a designer.
