Relaunching Church Communications Pro
Posted by: | CommentsHey CCP Readers! I know it has been quite a while since I have been active here and I offer my apologies!
Since I’ve joined the iThemes team, we have been blasting out a bunch of new projects which has kept us all pretty swamped. One of the major products we released this morning is a new WordPress theme called Flexx Theme. It is off the wall, and I believe for churches (or anyone else for that matters) it is going to absolutely change the playing field when it comes to church blogs or church websites.
Here’s just a few of the goodies that Flexx Theme is capable of doing:
- Offering 1,056 layouts variations!
- Click of the button layout and styling options.
- Easy to upload backgrounds and headers without FTP.
- No coding experience needed or required to use!
- Rotating and Fading Image Headers.
- Automatically Search Engine Optimized.
- Built in Color Picker for Background Colors
- and more things you can shake a stick at!
I will also be working on FLEXX THEME: CHURCH which will be released at ChurchTheme.com in the next week or so. Either way you won’t want to miss getting it but if you do want the original Flexx Theme then get it now because the price will go up next week!
All this to say what ties into my headline.
We are going to load the Flexx Theme for Church Communications Pro to show it off and so you can see how it works. So please excuse the mess as we start relaunching CCP and give it one new sweet look!
WordPress as a CMS Demystified

The resource site is filled with links, video tutorials and more …
You can read the whole backstory to iThemes … how I built our church’s website in WordPress, and of course, you might be familiar with the series I did here on how to use WP specifically for churches.

My New Adventure
Posted by: | CommentsMy good friend Brian Gardner took the headfirst entrepreneurial leap a couple of weeks ago (or at least the first step) and I’m officially announcing the same.
As of Jan. 2, 2008, I am taking the plunge, or leap, or whatever you want to call it … and going full-time with my web design business.
I’ve served in churches and in Southern Baptist life for almost six years now, so it’s definitely a huge step for me and my family. It was also extremely hard to tell my pastor as I loved serving under him. I learned so much from him … primarily, about being a godly man, a husband and a leader. Read More→
