Online Search Engines Created for Christians

An Australian Internet missionary has created two new search engines that Christians can use to find targeted and specialised information in cyberspace.

The first is a Christian humanitarian search engine called Phronema, which is a Greek word that translates as 'mind', or 'the framework of knowledge'.

The Phronema search engine helps Christian missionaries, NGOs, relief, aid and development workers and others find information on humanitarian topics such as literacy, water purification, or even how to find grants and funding.

The other search engine is the Cybermissions search engine, which is a small search engine that indexes websites devoted to Internet evangelism and Cybermissions.

The site is said to be useful for those doing evangelism on the Internet.

The websites can be found at www.phronema.org and
www.cybermissions.org.
