<p>That is what Code for the Kingdom is all about. Partner with like-minded people who are changing lives by tackling real-world issues from a Christian perspective. </p>
<p>One common thing we hear from the Christian community is “But I’m not a (Programmer, Hacker, Visionary, Business Leader, Designer, Professional Genius, etc.) What would I have to offer?”</p>
<p>You are more talented than you’re giving yourself credit for! We all strive to live our lives in service to the Kingdom. This is your chance to live that out in a weekend of focused collaboration! Each person brings unique perspective, passion, and expertise to the table. When like-minded people come together, incredible things can happen. </p>
<p>Join us in March for a weekend hackathon at The Addison Treehouse in Addison, TX where you will be able to meet and work together with people who are serious about using technology to further the Kingdom.</p>

<h3>ENGAGING AND RELEASING OUR BEST</h3>
</header>
<p>Every person has something unique to contribute to the community, society, and church. Yet, less than 20% of us are actively engaged in doing what we could do. Most of us do not understand how we can leverage our skills and ideas to improve the lives of others.
What if we could discover how to use our unique gifts for God’s Kingdom? Build technologies to mobilize and equip every member of your community, church and family. Empower them to release their skills as well as to accelerate great ideas and initiatives that could transform the lives of the child or adult down your street.</p></section>

<h3>SPIRITUAL FORMATION</h3>
</header>
<p>Every person has the right to receive God’s Word and discover His unconditional love, because only God’s truth has the ability to transform the heart and the mind. Join forces with other like minded individuals and create technologies that help reduce spiritual poverty in every nation, city, community, family, and individual.
Build mobile applications to help children learn the Word of God, bury it in their hearts and share it with their friends. Create technologies for prayer, evangelism, mentorship, and other innovative means to spiritual formation.

<h3>HELP CREATE A CULTURE OF GENEROSITY</h3>
</header>
<p>We are all called to a life of generous sacrifice extending beyond simple financial generosity, to include generosity of our mind, love, time and possessions. If the Kingdom of God is to truly to be advanced by us, we need to answer the call of generosity. It is only when we live out this radical generosity that the Church will be unleashed in thoughtfulness, action, and resources to advance the Kingdom of God in the world. Create technology to encourage individuals and families to become generous in every aspect of their lives.</p>

<blockquote>“To be loved but not known is comforting but superficial. To be known and not loved is our greatest fear. But to be fully known and truly loved is, well, a lot like being loved by God. It is what we need more than anything. It liberates us from pretense, humbles us out of our self-righteousness, and fortifies us for any difficulty life can throw at us.” - Timothy Keller</blockquote>
<p>Dallas has one of the most vibrant and active entrepreneurial communities in the country - not to mention being FULL of people who are serving the Lord through technology in their careers. A large part of the weekend will be dedicated to building relationships.</p>
<p>If you can’t attend the entire event then just come Friday night for our kickoff or Saturday morning when the hacking is in full swing. You will experience the Dallas tech community in action. Don’t be surprised if you end up staying through the weekend.</p>
<p><p>Register now to join us in Dallas/Fort Worth as we work to leveraging technology to transforms lives. Plus, you get to rub shoulders with some of the most effective global ministries, technologists, entrepreneurs, investors, hi-tech accelerators, church leaders and creative individuals from every discipline.</p></p>

<h3>Human Trafficking</h3>

<div class="9u challenge-description">
<div class="expander intro">
<span class="toggle-switch"></span>
How can technology for good be used to disrupt the technologies used by the human traffickers to conduct their business?
</div>
<div class="content">
<p>Technology has become the predominant tool of sex traffickers. The ease by which they can acquire mobile phones and new numbers, allows the traffickers to coordinate meeting points, terms of the transaction, and to maintain communication with the victims and the “johns”. Escort websites and online classified ad sites provide the traffickers with countless opportunities to conduct their businesses and publish those mobile numbers. But what if you were to create technology that would take the very same information traffickers advertise, and use it to direct so much traffic to their mobile phones to the point their main means of communication becomes useless? </p>

<h3>Organ Donation Crisis</h3>

Can you create technology to help every church challenge its members to be donor organs, saving tens of thousands of lives every year and greatly reducing the organ donation crisis?
</div>
<div class="content">
<p>Currently in the US alone, according to the national data (<a href="http://optn.transplant.hrsa.gov/converge/latestData/step2.asp"><a href="http://optn.transplant.hrsa.gov/converge/latestData/step2.asp">http://optn.transplant.hrsa.gov/converge/latestData/step2.asp</a></a>) by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services, there are over 120,000 people waiting for organ transplants and only about 14,000 donors. In addition, 82% of the waiting list is for kidneys. But what if the right technology at the hand of churches across the country could serve to educate, engage, and recruit Christians to give the gift of life and double the number of donors? </p>
<p>How can you affect the life of the person in your community who needs a new kidney, and his/her family? What if technology allowed the opportunity to become a donor to be present every time someone interacts with her/his church digital tools, instead of every few years during driver license renewal?</p>

Faith Comes By Hearing (Digital Bible Platform) – How can you increase scripture engagement, now?

<div class="content">
<p>“Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you…” James 4:8, ESV. It is an amazing time to live in, and technology allows us to draw near to God with an array of Digital tools. With many Bible apps already out there, what can we now do to drive scripture engagement? Is it with a gamification, witnessing apps to share with others, or maybe it’s something that you have been dreaming about? We call upon you, with your God given gifts and abilities to create engaging Biblical tools for the kingdom of God, using our Digital Bible Platform API and its over 870 languages. Help us increase scripture engagement to quench thirsts, clothe spiritually, and equip mentally with the power of the Bible, in a language people understand. <a href="http://www.digitalbibleplatform.com/"><a href="http://www.digitalbibleplatform.com/">http://www.digitalbibleplatform.com/</a></a>. </p>

How can technology connect people searching for God online regardless of what OTT messaging service they use?

<p>We all understand that the best way to serve people is by meeting them where they are. Global Media Outreach is serving the millions of people each day that search on the Internet for a spiritual term. Tens of thousands (and growing) of Online Missionaries (OMs) are in place to respond to those asking for help via the Internet. With Over-The-Top instant messaging services ( such as WhatsApp, Kik, and many others), becoming more and more the preferred means of communication when the person searching is concerned about SMS costs, OMs must have a unified way to be in contact with the people they serve, regardless of which OTT messaging apps each party is using.</p>

<p>By using audio recordings, The Bible is able to be translated, shared, and heard. But this is a slow and time consuming process.

<div class="9u challenge-description">
<div class="expander intro">
<span class="toggle-switch"></span>
What if technology could help activate the neighborhood, the community, and the Church to help bring affordable, healthy and nutritious food options to urban areas lacking them? What if you could create the AirBnB for food deserts?
</div>
<div class="content">
<p>Just South of Dallas, there is a large community of lower-income neighborhoods that meet the criteria for a “food desert”: an urban area in which it is difficult to buy affordable or good-quality fresh food. In these poverty-stricken areas, many single-parent children are left to purchase, prepare and feed their families as their parents work. This lack of access leads to child-obesity, illness, and much more. But what if technology could help people “love their neighbor” by activating a community to work together in acquiring, preparing, distributing, selling, and/or serving better food to the neighborhood? (Article about Dallas Food Deserts: <a href="http://frontburner.dmagazine.com/2014/03/17/how-will-dallas-combat-its-food-deserts/"><a href="http://frontburner.dmagazine.com/2014/03/17/how-will-dallas-combat-its-food-deserts/">http://frontburner.dmagazine.com/2014/03/17/how-will-dallas-combat-its-food-deserts/</a></a>)</p>
