David Johnston

Co-Founder and CTO

Dave’s duties include vacuuming the floor and emptying the trash cans, amongst other things. He is also the hands-on guy regarding the maintenance and evolution of the Sermon Player system. After a round of conversations with Joshua and the rest of the team, Dave sets the ball in motion by documenting and prioritizing the projects. He then works with (harasses) the programmers until the updates are completed, tested, and released. His good nature makes him particularly well equipped for the job (programmers are weird people).

Joshua Stokes

Co-Founder and CEO

Joshua spends most of his time coaching youth sports. He doesn't quite remember how it all started yet somewhere along the way both his son and daughter found the love for competition and it has been practices, games, and everyting in between ever since. So if you need to get ahold of Joshua after hours don't say we didn't warn you.

When not on the sidelines Joshua is managing the busniness development of the Sermon Network. Joshua oversees partner relations, marketing, and works closely with product planning.

Scott Smith

Director of Client Services

At some point in time everyone talks to Scott. If you haven't yet, you should. His knowledge of the Sermon Player system and how to best guide you along your way makes him the man for the job! Scott is a native of Tulsa, Oklahoma, and returned home after graduating from The University of Texas at Arlington with a degree in Finance. He lives just outside Tulsa in the nationally known football town of Jenks with his lovely wife Katherine, dog Blizzard, and cat Madeline. He enjoys playing frisbee and rollerblading with Blizzard, watching Big 12 sports and the Dallas Mavericks, and playing with computers and video games.

Shane Duvall

Network Engineer

Honestly, we are not sure what Shane does here. He spends most of his time playing with cables, racks, and small metal boxes, in a very loud room. And sometimes he talks in a language that most of us here have a difficult time understanding.

Not to be misunderstood. Shane is what holds everything together. Constant talks of security, zero latency, synchro backups, and performance keeps our clients happy all the day long!

Kirill Belov

Lead Developer

Born in Russia,  Kirill received his degree in Applied Mathematics at Rostov State University.

Without Kirill there would be no Sermon Player system.  Kirill is the software technician that makes it happen.  Along with the rest of the development team, Kirill takes the often “overwhelming” list from Dave and builds it out.  No small task! And, all the while he does it with a smile… (yeah right, adds Dave).

Kirill loves the mountains, skiing, travelling, and large bodies of water (nothing beats a warm day at the Lake). He often likes to swim as an opportunity to forget that computers even exist.  : )
