Website Reboot

Welcome to the new website for Christian Heights United Methodist Church. There is great potential here I hope it is successful.

What is wrong with the old site that you can’t use it?

In a nutshell, technology has changed since I created the old site. The old website was labor-intensive to update requiring manual code writing and a slow process of uploading images. The old method required me to resize large images from my camera one at a time and also make thumbanail versions. I have since perfected a method of quickly processing a batch of images on my personal website. WordPress, the software that operates this website, helps a great deal.

WordPress allows a broad range capabilites for the future. Publishing a podcast of the Sunday sermons is one example. A podcast is audio posted to the Internet that listeners can subscribe to and download to their own portable device.
