About Our Company

The seed that grew into ChurchTrac was planted in 2003 when the company founder, Byron Tedder, developed a software program at the request of his pastor. The church staff was looking for a database to help keep track of spiritual gifts, ministry positions and prospects. So Byron got to work. As additional needs arose, Byron continued to enhance the program to include more and more aspects of church management. In 2004, Byron began offering the software as a ministry to other churches--free for smaller churches--and affordable for larger churches. Thus, ChurchTrac was born.

Over the years of working on a church staff and listening to the needs of other churches, Byron has continued to expand and refine ChurchTrac to meet the needs of today’s churches. Now there are more than 10,000 churches all around the world using ChurchTrac, and about half of those churches are smaller churches with fewer than 100 names who are able to use ChurchTrac for free!

ChurchTrac isn't the largest church software company out there, but that's a good thing. Instead of focusing on profits, we can focus on serving you. Our mission is to equip churches and church leaders, because that's where real ministry happens.

Today Byron continues to work on and develop ChurchTrac, together with a small staff of of employees. God continues to bless ChurchTrac, and we're excited to see what God will do in the future.
 

Our Beliefs as a Company

ChurchTrac is a software program that was created to be a blessing and help to Christian-based churches and ministries. As a company, our belief system is entirely Christian in nature, and our business practices, as well as the content of our products, will reflect this belief. We believe:

  • That Jesus is God’s one and only Son, sent by God to take the punishment for our sins (John 3:16).
     
  • That heaven and eternal life can only be obtained through faith in Jesus Christ (John 14:6; Acts 4:12).
     
  • There is nothing that mankind can do to earn God’s forgiveness, heaven or salvation. This is a free gift of God based entirely on faith in His Son, Jesus (Ephesians 2:8-9).
     
  • Forgiveness for our sins is only available because of Jesus’ shed blood on the cross (Hebrews 9:22).
     
  • Jesus died, was buried, and bodily rose again on the third day (1 Corinthians 15:3-4).
     
  • The Holy Bible (in 66 books—Genesis through Revelation) is the totality of God’s inspired Word. God has not spoken through any other “holy” books or religious writings (Revelation 22:18).

ChurchTrac will display Christian-themed messages on various screens to encourage you in your walk with Christ. If you have questions regarding a relationship with God, receiving His forgiveness, or about heaven and eternal life, please let us know.
