NICE! Dig it.

This week I’ve worked on revamping and updating some stuff on the church website. (http://www.doverassembly.com)
I also unofficially took the week off from posting to the church social media accounts to work on a strategy/schedule type thing so that I actually remember to post things instead of letting them go with no posts for an extended period.
Eric Dye says
Your church website is really looking good 😀
What’s your strategy? Would be interested in a blog post for ChurchMag on your process and how you came about it.
Jason Bradley says
I wrote a blog post that shows how to add icons in your WordPress menu items. Check it out! http://everchangingmedia.com/icons-in-the-wordpress-menu/

Phew… never got to post last weekend, and by the time I looked at SSS it was Thursday already. Things are heating up here in the lead up to the release of OpenLP 2.0. I’ve been working till 1am to get things done.
Last week I wrote two blog posts on my Christians in OSS blog, another part in my Python tutorial[0] and a further write-up of my experiences with my Kindle Fire[1].
This week I wrote up a blog post asking the question of “How do I raise support in order to become a missionary?” I really want to use my technical skills in a much more tangible way for the Lord. I got a great comment on that post by Gerv Markham[3], one of the developers at the Mozilla Foundation. I’ll have to write up another blog post about how I see myself becoming a digital missionary.
This week I also wrote up another blog post[4] urging the OpenLP translators to get as much translation done as possible before the release of version 2.0. We have got a pretty good response so far, lots of translations are looking much better now, though we still have a number that are quite incomplete.
I’ve also been doing a lot of work on the web site upgrade, gotten a lot of stuff right, so quite amped about it. Nothing to show right now cause I’m in the middle of another upgrade trial run.
Oh, and on Monday a couple of the guys from work (including me) got to go to a one day Google conference held here in Cape Town, called g|southafrica[5]. It wasn’t brilliant (most of the talks were very basic), but I got to meet a whole lot of old colleagues and bump into some friends too.

By the way, if anyone has any further input for me on raising support, please feel free to comment on my blog, I’d love to hear what others think.

I released “The Serving Church” this week. As part of that, I’m having a deal until the end of Black Friday in the continental US. Anyone who buys the book from Amazon gets a rebate of the $2.99 and all my other books free (including two that haven’t been released). Details at http://trinitydigitalmedia.com/theservingchurchdeal (buy the book at http://bit.ly/servechurchdeal).
I’ve also switched to a new web host (which is better than my last one, but more expensive). My database is large enough that I’m having trouble getting it all moved. I do have some ideas.
I wrote three or four last week for ChurchM.ag (thanks Eric) and wrote a few more blog entries for my latest book “Church 2063.”
Keep me in your prayers because things are a little tight and I’m thinking about getting a part time job to make ends meet while I’m still building things.
Paul

You launched ‘The Serving Church” — hooray!
