Honest pricing, on a sliding scale
After three decades in this work, my time is usually $100–$200 an hour — which helps fund mission work as a tentmaker and the tooling behind the job. But thank God, the systems we've built at Love Jesus Software make most projects cost far less than that sounds: a simple website often under $200 (a year of hosting included), a shop usually $500–$1,400, and a more integrated build from around $1,500.

I try to price the way a good doctor keeps a sliding scale: if that's genuinely out of reach, and we find the work will truly help you get on your feet, tell me your situation. We'll do what you need most first, in order of priority, and where it fits, base what you pay on your success. I'd rather see you succeed than turn you away over money — only please make my job easier by communicating clearly, getting me your materials, and bearing with me. God bless you in Jesus' name.
How it works
Tell me what you need
Your project, your constraints, and what you can afford — in your own words or out loud.
I review it personally
Good AI tools do much of the work — that is how I keep the price low — and I review it myself and shape the options that fit you.
You get a real plan
A practical plan with an honest time estimate — and you decide how far to take it.
The constraints belong in the conversation
Tell me the situation honestly.
Share what you need and what you can afford. We can look together for an orderly way forward without pretending money is the whole story.
