Why should your church staff and leaders use Covenant Eyes?
You are here: Promotional Materials / Church Information
Dear church leader,
Today more than ever, church staff and leaders are using the Internet. However, this poses a significant risk and liability to staff and congregation members, especially if the church doesn't have an Internet Safety and Use Policy to monitor employees' Internet use. If a staff member were to view Internet pornography while on the church premises, this could lead to a sexual misconduct and greatly damage the church and the congregation. The church would also be vulnerable to lawsuits. Filters provide some help, but they can be bypassed, frequently block acceptable sites, and they don't hold anyone accountable for their Internet use.
Covenant Eyes is here to answer questions and assist you in enrolling your staff on the Covenant Eyes program. We can also help you in developing an 'Employee Internet Use Safety Policy'.
Throughout the church in N. America, Internet pornography is having devastating effects upon individuals, families, marriages and our testimony for Christ. Please carefully consider this information.
BENEFITS OF COVENANT EYES
- Staff will be accountable for WHERE they go on the Internet, and HOW much time they are spending online. This results in responsible use of the Internet.
- Review and complete the "Internet Risk Management Assessment" form provided free by Covenant Eyes. This will help you address areas of concern.
- REDUCE the church's liability and risk associated with sexual misconduct occurring from someone viewing sexually explicit content on the Internet. Reduce the possibility of lawsuits against the church. If the church were found to be negligent, this could potentially devastate the church, both financially and spiritually.
- Protect your leaders integrity and the congregation from the devastation that can occur when someone on your staff is discovered to have this type of problem.
- Internet pornography is more addicting than cocaine and even one exposure is destructive. People aren't aware of the extreme danger that the Internet poses, and it's right in their homes, church offices and businesses, one click away. Covenant Eyes can help reduce the likelihood of a staff member becoming addicted to pornography.
- Set a great example for your leadership team and staff. Enroll everyone in Covenant Eyes. This is a protection for your church and will be an encouragement to your congregation.
- The allure of temptation is most powerful when no one is watching. Covenant Eyes can help reduce this allure and promote Internet integrity.
- Once the staff is enrolled, they may download Covenant Eyes for FREE on their home computers.
- Protect your staff computers from being used by any unauthorized people. Covenant Eyes will BLOCK Internet webpages from appearing unless the person is an authorized Covenant Eyes user.
- Special reduced pricing for Church and Ministry staffs and employers.
- Once your staff is enrolled request our FREE brochures and e-mail documents and distribute this information to your congregation members. Alert, inform and educate parents, family members, and individuals in this critically important area so they can take action to protect themselves. www.covenanteyes.com
