Internet Outreach Experts was founded in 2008 by Rev. David Baker, M.Div., a Princeton Theological Seminary graduate and ordained Presbyterian minister. Pastor Dave personally provides support to all clients, drawing on his experience both as a pastor and as an internet entrepreneur.
Dave is a ministry veteran with over a decade of experience in the Presbyterian church — working as an Associate Pastor for young adults, a New Church Development pastor, and the Solo Pastor of a small country congregation. For the last 15+ years, he has also been helping pastors and small businesses grow their online presence.
ii.Why we exist
As the chair of his region's Evangelism & Church Development committee, Dave saw the deep need: many churches had to improve their online presence to reach an increasingly tech-savvy culture, particularly young adults. IOE exists to help churches grow offline by making sure their online strategy is appealing to potential guests.
The staff at Internet Outreach Experts are experts in ministry as well as in the online sphere. We have a passion to see churches grow. A core principle of evangelism has always been to go where the people are; Paul didn't go to Rome to reach the Corinthians, he went to Corinth.
In the 21st century, as churches should be where the people are: online. We're here to help you reach your community for Christ, using the latest and best online tools. — Rev. David Baker, Founder
iii.What we believe about church tech
The website is a tool, not a trophy.
Pretty screenshots don't grow congregations. We care about one outcome: more guests, more often. Every design decision gets measured against that goal.
Pastors shouldn't have to become marketers.
You went to seminary to shepherd a flock, not to write Google Ads copy. We take the technical burden off your staff so you can focus on ministry.
Small churches deserve great tech.
A country church of 80 members deserves the same quality website as a megachurch. Our pricing is designed so that small congregations can afford real professional help — not just a free Wix template.
AI should serve ministry, not replace it.
Our IOE Studio platform uses AI to handle the drudge work — generating sermon banners, updating service times, finding broken links, posting bulletins. But the strategy, the words, the pastoral judgment — that still comes from a human who's spent time in ministry. AI amplifies your staff; it doesn't replace them.
iv.Our team
IOE is deliberately small. Pastor Dave leads every client engagement personally, supported by a team of designers, developers, and copywriters who have worked with us for years. You'll always know who's building your site — and you'll always be able to pick up the phone and reach them.
