Free Stuff for Christians and their Churches

We are all too aware that the internet is crammed full of 'free stuff' which is not worth having! Locating the genuine gifts is painfully time consuming. So, here's some advice on free stuff that's usable and valuable!

At Hand's Stuff
At Hand offer a number of free initiatives. If you didn't know that, to check out the free offerings @ our home page!
First Century Christian History
Jewish historians Philo and Josephus are most useful in describing events and Judaism at the time of Jesus and the earliest church. Their works and similar early historical writings are available to read for free online. To make access easier, you can use the At Hand Library. It places the books and their sites at your fingertips, accompanied by search facilities for other valuable online resources. Josephus' Antiquities book 18 is the best starting place for those interested in Judaism at the time of Jesus and his first followers.

Free Web Browser
Internet Explorer () is the usual Web Browser for the usual PC user running the usual 'Microsoft Windows'. For Mac users, Safari () is your system's standard browser. These two links will direct you to the latest versions.

Provided you have a recent version of your Web Browser, you may see little reason for changing Browser: You can Click on the Browser names above to find the latest versions. However, we recommend Firefox Web Browser as a way of supporting choice:

   Microsoft's Internet Explorer is not the most used browser because it's the best but because it is supplied ready to run with Windows. If we do not choose what we use, we make browser functionality and hence the future course of the internet organisation-led rather than consumer-led. Using an alternative Browser can combat any single organisation's ability to dictate the Internet's future.

Free Worship Presentation Software
for a list of features, or to download it.
Many people refer to a Projector and PC as 'The PowerPoint', but that's just the name of Microsoft's Presentation Software! You don't even need the PowerPoint software to create, edit or display slides on a projector, so check out this free Worship Presentation Software:

openlp.org has been created specifically for use in worship so it is far less cumbersome than messing with PowerPoint! It can help you plan and display acts of worship including songs, pictures and Bible passages. Presentation Software can cost hundreds of pounds but this offering is free!

Free PowerPoint compatible software
Even if you want to work with PowerPoint files, there is rarely the need to pay Microsoft for the privilege! OpenOffice.org is a fabulous piece of software that rivals Microsoft Office and, like the more expensive versions of Office, it includes PowerPoint-compatible Presentation Software. Unlike Microsoft Office, however, OpenOffice.org is free!

Free PowerPoint Viewer
If all you want to do is display PowerPoint files, the Microsoft PowerPoint Viewer 2007 can be downloaded free of charge from the Microsoft web site:
