Current systems

From preparation to delivery.

Each system solves a different piece of the same problem: helping people prepare deeply, share simply, and serve personally.

  • Durable, revocable My Choir links that work on a phone without a WordPress login

04Free journey

CrossTalk Publishing

AVODAH

A free 52-week devotional journey into faithful work, worship, and life with God—delivered one Monday at a time.

  • Fifty-two devotionals received sequentially from Week One through Week Fifty-Two
  • A fresh devotional delivered by email every Monday
  • Every unlocked week remains available to revisit
  • Optional personal iMessage reminder with a private reading link
  • Individual evergreen starts or shared cohort journeys
  • Clear consent, delivery preferences, and unsubscribe controls

Private infrastructure · redacted view

Relay connects the conversation.

Relay is the private communications layer behind several CrossTalk projects. It helps the right message reach the right people through the right channel while keeping consent, personalization, and delivery history together.

  • Unified contacts, audiences, lists, tags, and custom fields
  • Campaign composition for email, iMessage, and voicemail
  • Personalization previews and reusable message building
  • Signup forms, devotional sequences, drawings, and fulfillment workflows
  • Delivery reporting, response history, consent, and lifecycle follow-through

The preview is synthetic. Names, audience counts, messages, delivery details, account connections, and credentials have been removed.
