		<description>I really like your site. I am involved in several church sites and I like your research for ideas.

I think a video introduction from the pastor is a great way to get to know the pastor.

I also think some media clips of the service is nice, it gives them a view of the church.

		<description>Hi Mickey,

Just came across your blog recently.  Looking good!

I think you covered most of the information people are looking for on a church website.  The only thing I would add is to give people an idea of what they should wear.

However, I think the most important thing a church needs to convey is what it&#039;s all about.  Is the church really warm and welcoming to new people or is it cliquie?  Is it really open to all people regardless of their past and where they are spiritually, or is everyone expected to act like they have it all together?  Is it more about in-depth exegetical teaching or life application?  Is it engaged in the community or refuged from the community?  Is it about past traditions or is it about engaging today&#039;s culture?

What is it that makes your church different from the 10-20 other churches someone could attend in your community?

In His Service,
Paul Steinbrueck
