A Website is a Tool.
Like a hammer or chisel.
Or maybe I can call a website a musical instrument.
You never expect to pick up a guitar or trumpet and just start playing.
You have to practise.
You have to get familiar with how the saw or piano works.
You have many experiences from the physical world that you can cross over into the musical world.
Not so much when you think about websites.
Have you previously been a writer?
Have you previously made videos?
What about manipulating pictures for a powerpoint?
A bitter-sweet weekend, November 4th, 2023.
We celebrated Loren Cunninghams’ life and how Jesus was always the center.
Make it fun.
What do you already do that you could move over to your website?
Journal-ling.
Do you already write from your quiet times?
Use your phone.
Do you already take pictures? Even videos?
Powerpoint.
Do you already make presentations?
A website is a presentation that is available to the whole world.
Make it useful.
What ministry work are you involved in?
Do you produce material for a Bible study, children’s ministry, or a feeding program?
You are producing materials for work you are already doing.
Put this on your website that others may be interested in, that other people might want to use in their ministries, that people would want to get behind you in prayer and support.
For me
For me, a website is my connection to the world.
It is where I do our newsletters, but more than that it is where I also do this newsletter for you as a webmaster.
I also have a newsletter that is the product of my quiet times, it is called Faith and Reason.
I also have a newsletter to champion the websites that are being built around us.
Whatever you do, you can champion it through your website.
Is your website here? Let’s do some training.
Becoming a webmaster
This is like growing a new limb.
You now have a third arm.
It’s going to get in the way, it’s going to feel odd, use it and you will begin to see your capacity to do things increase.

Obligation to Passon
Your website will change from being a thing you feel obliged to do,
- to a thing you begin to master,
- to a thing you have autonomy over,
- to a thing that gives you purpose.
Truly your website will become a thing you can’t wait to do.
It's a journey
It’s a journey from picking up a guitar to leading worship.
It’s a journey from working in a workshop to producing furniture.
It’s a journey from keeping a journey to writing articles for your website.
Start today and you have less to do tomorrow.
