Church Software 7.x Series
Church Software 7.x series has similar functionalities as the Church Software 5.x, but this software is entirely different. While Church Software 5.x is a local desktop application, Church Software 7.x is a complete rewrite and redesigned with .Net client and a J2EE server, focused to work on a LAN (Local Area Network) environment.
The project is not developed further because, it requires a server (or a reliable desktop system to act as a server). All functionalities works properly and effectively. However, I found that the local-desktop version (standalone version) corrupts the database if the local server running on desktop is not shutdown properly. This requirement forces to have a reliable server installed on a church network or a home network. Unfortunately, I cannot expect churches and homes to have dedicated servers installed on their landscape. This made me abandon this project inspite of it being superior and well designed architecture than 5.x versions.

Codex Sinaiticus
Codex Sinaiticus is one of the most important books in the world. Handwritten well over 1600 years ago, the manuscript contains the Christian Bible in Greek, including the oldest complete copy of the New Testament. Its heavily corrected text is of outstanding importance for the history of the Bible and the manuscript – the oldest substantial book to survive Antiquity – is of supreme importance for the history of the book. All data and contents - manuscript images, transcription provided through this application are fetched from codexsinaiticus.org. This application allows you to browse through the entire Codex Sinaiticus manuscript in high resolution (1920 px), transcription and the corresponding translation in offline (all data are stored on your computer and no internet is required).
It's always been a dream for me to have a kind of bible reader to actually view the manuscript and then to see the translated text which gives me a feeling of how much older and authentic they are. Since the manuscript images are installed on your local computer, you can access all images with high speed without any need for internet.

Church Info Desktop
ChurchInfo is a free church database program to help churches track members, families, groups, pledges and payments. You can find more information from www.churchdb.org. We had converted the same software into a ready-to-use desktop application. This helps anyone not familiar with computers or apache/php, mysql and importing sql tables can simply install this pre-configured ready-to-use setup and instantly start using it. All credit goes to the developers of Church Info.
Church Info wasn't developed by me. What I did is just a wrapper to make it a desktop application. While the wrapper application works fine, the software's actual functionality itself depends on the future releases of Church Info by Mike and his team from churchdb.org. Hence, there is no further development required.

Christian Anti-Porn
Christian Anti-Porn is a browser extension for Google Chrome and Mozilla Firefox, that will filter websites based on the content/url and alert the user if any porn websites are clicked. This will not completely block but rather display Bible verse with the crucified Jesus Christ and to remind every Christian that he is going to crucify Jesus Christ again if he proceeds to such websites. This add-on is not an ultimate filter for porn. God is the ultimate filter and only He can guard you and give you enough grace to overcome sin. Hence, pray to Jesus Christ who died for our sins.
The extension's functionality works fine and there is no further development required. However, if any bugs are found, I will try to fix them if time permits.
