  • 2023 Daytona 500

    Yesterday was the 2023 Daytona 500, the first points paying race of NASCAR’s 75th season. After a few attempts at a green, white, checkered and 530 miles later, Ricky Stenhouse Jr came away this years winner. via GIPHY Had you told me that of all the drivers in the field Ricky would have won it,…

  • Nehushtan

    It’s Sunday, which means its church day! This morning was a busy day in church and for us on the av team. Special songs from a family in the church, an all women’s choir, and an expository message from the pastor made for a great service. Today the message was from 2 Kings 18 and…

  • Page Builders – Beaver Builder

    Both are popular plugins, and after using SiteOrigin for a time we made a switch to Beaver Builder. So lets dig into this one. Price Beaver Builder starts out for free. With the free version of the plugin you get some nice features like their row modules, and standard modules, outside of those basic options…

  • Page Builders – SiteOrigin

    Page Builder by SiteOrigin was the first true page builder plugin that I developed clients sites with. Before SiteOrigin I would use either custom fields within a custom template, custom HTML in the WYSIWYG, or using a plugin like Easy Foundation Shortcode to build a layout using at times an unwieldily amount of unreadable shortcodes.…

  • Page Builders

    Before the block editor if you wanted to have any type of custom layout on a WordPress page your options were limited. You could write HTML in the WYSIWYG editor. You could use shortcodes for layout elements, or you could build a custom page template. All viable solutions within the correct context. For many though…

  • Lookers Speedshop

  • Tech And The Church

    Believe it or not there is a disagreement in churches on the right way to handle an issue (sarcasm). The issue I want to address in this article is my feelings on using modern technology as a tool within the church. via GIPHY I’ve heard almost every argument that you can hear for and against…

  • Super Bowl LVII

    So yesterday the Eagles played the Chiefs in Super Bowl LVII. My interest in the NFL comes and goes from year to year, but I usually always watch the Super Bowl. This has been one of those low interest years for me. I’ve not watched a single game, or highlight the entire season. After a…

  • Sunday Service

    This week’s Sunday was different than normal. On a typical Sunday I attend only my church’s services. I usually work in some capacity running camera’s and our live stream, or manning the sound board. Over the past couple of weeks I was asked to help set up new video equipment for two other churches. I…

  • 60 Day Blogging Challenge, Day 1

    Today is day 1 of challenging myself to write a blog post a day for 60 days. As I mentioned in my site update post, I do not consider myself a writer. I’ve heard native English speakers joke over the years that they feel like they barely have a grasp of the language and I…
