An Exhortation for Christian Bloggers

Cory Miller — Tue, 22 Sep 2009 20:51:35 +0000

I recently have had the opportunity to meet and become great friends with Doug Baker, who is now the editor of Baptist Messenger, Oklahoma’s third largest newspaper ….

He just wrote an editorial called On Baptist Blogging and it includes a great exhortation to all Christian bloggers, here’s a quote from it:

The challenge for the Christian blogger is to both expose and edify in a manner that obeys Jesus’ process of log and speck (Matt. 7:5). Far too often blogging can be both anonymous and autonomous, tricking the writer into thinking that what they write and how they respond represents true community and reality. The real test for great writing is not its spontaneity or immediacy. Rather it is the ability to write in a manner consistent with Christian doctrine and communicated in a manner that seeks to be salt and light in the midst of a very dark world. With this as the goal, there is hope that blogging might truly be used to the glory of God.

Uploading Your Sermons to WordPress Blogs

James Dalman — Mon, 16 Jun 2008 17:15:07 +0000

In case you haven’t heard about it there is a plug-in for WordPress blogs that allows you to upload your sermons.

Mark Barnes recently sent me an e-mail about his Sermon Browser WordPress Plugin that allows churches to simply upload sermons to their WordPress website, where they can be searched, listened to, and downloaded. It is easy to use with comprehensive help and tutorials.

While I haven’t tried it out personally (because I’m a WordPress dummy) – it sounds really cool! Feel free to check it out for yourself.
