Site Upgrade

Tonight I made some slight changes to Pastor Frasier's VOM Nuggets newsletter blog. To begin with I updated the template used to publish this blog to include various new features provided by BlogSpot and Google. This includes various widgets that add simple functionality to the site with only a few clicks. One of these new features (widgets) I added was the ability to have a topical search of previous blogs. The plan for now is to limit these topics (aka labels or tags) to either Bible books or to special topical series by Pastor Fraiser. For example his 1 Corinthians 13 series on love was tagged with the Bible passage as well as the topic of Love.

During this time I have also moved a number of elements around and removed some. You may notice that only the current newsletter is posted. This was done to allow for a shorter page so that the counter could be placed in the footer. It will also make for easier reading for new vistors as they come looking for the most current information. For previous articles please check the Archive section located in the sidebar on the right side of the page. From here you will be able to access any previous posts.

Three other coming changes you may see in the near future. Links. As I come across additional valuable links I will place them in the sidebar. Please note that I will probably keep them to a short list due to space. Google Adsense. In order to provide additional relevant resources to you and possible some income for the writer you may see some adds in the sidebar near the bottom. These links ought to be content relevant to the content of the blog. If I find that this addition is not edifying then I will promptly remove them. Recommend Reading. The last feature I am hoping to add is a recommended book reading list from Pastor Frasier. This might even include what he is currently reading.

Please let me know what you think of the changes and if I need to make any more. Your feedback is always valued. Between you, Pastor Frasier, and myself we ought to be able to make this a very valuable resource to edify the body of Christ.

Godspeed and goodnight,
Wesley
