Staffhacker is on a semi-permanent hiatus.
Staffhacker is a site dedicated to resourcing and training campus ministry staff by providing them with technology and productivity tips. The goal of our site is to equip campus ministry staff to fulfill their callings efficiently, excellently, and with a minimum of distracting administrative responsibilities.
From the Founder: Staffhacker’s history
As someone who has experience raising funds for full-time campus staff work with InterVarsity Christian Fellowship, I found myself often struggling with how to handle the myriad responsibilities of a campus staffworker. I’ve been a fundraiser, a mentor, a speaker, an administrator, a web publisher, an event organizer, a liaison to student government bureaucracy, an employee of a large national organization, and much more. It’s more than I could take on by myself, and my inability to use my time and tools well became very clear very quickly.
I decided that when I find a tip or a tool that helps me spend more time in ministry–and less time floundering around with to-do lists and new technologies–I wanted to share it with other campus ministry staff. It quickly became apparent that where my sharing could be helpful, a sharing community would be exponentially so; the result was Staffhacker. The name is a reference to Lifehacker, one of the Internet’s premier productivity & technology web sites.
Because of my editorial bias, the posts on this site might tend more toward parachurch ministry staff who raise their own funds; but our goal is to create and collect content that’s valuable for as large a segment of college- and university-related ministers as possible.
