From Pastor
Please change Sunday morning worship from 9:00 to 10:30 starting this week. Thanks! (Do not text Dave.)
Meet Dave.
Because “ask Dave” is not a website strategy.
Dave is the volunteer who inherited your website. Update it by email instead — he already has a job. Several, actually.

Meet The Steeple.
A fictional neighborhood church we keep polished so you can poke around — service times, sermons, events, the works. Real Steepley pages. No login. Dave is not on this group text.

He’s not on staff. He’s on every group text.
Dave said “I can look at the website” in 2018 and has been the website ever since. AV. Livestream. Sunday slides. The cable that only works if you wiggle it. Somehow it’s all him.
Pastors don’t have time to become web designers. Dave doesn’t have time to be one. Sunday already asked enough of both of you.
Dave’s Sunday
- Website
- AV
- Livestream
- Somehow it’s all me
Field notes
Two pictures. Zero exaggeration.
If these feel personal, that’s because they are. We just drew them first.
Why Steepley exists
I built this for my pastor.
One day I asked myself: how could he update the church website without learning a CMS? Dragging boxes around a screen would just frustrate him. But he can send an email — attach a photo, write what he needs in plain language — and get back to pastoring.
Like this
“Add an event on the 12th — a baby shower for Linda.”
That’s the whole product. Dave keeps the cables. Your pastor emails Steepley. We take care of the website.
The new pipeline
Pastor has an update. Steepley takes it from here.
- Pastor has an update
- Emails Steepley
- Changes go live
One email. Done.
No login. No app. No “can you just hop on WordPress real quick.” Write what you need in plain language — we make it live. Dave can keep mixing the mics.
From Steepley
Steepley is on it. No need to loop in Dave.

Done — your changes are live.
How it works
- We build your site Migrated from whatever CMS you inherited. No fee for the build.
- You email changes New times, events, photos, copy — in your own words. No dashboard to learn.
- It goes live A person at Steepley checks it. No Sunday-morning scramble.
