Church Launches New Web Site

For the past 8 months or so, I've been involved in creating a new Web site for The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist. The site, christianscience.com, launched this past Wednesday. It replaces a placeholder site that had been online for about a year.

The site was established to provide a single entry point for all to use to find content relating to Christian Science, to provide readily accessible and accurate information about Christian Science online, and to put a human face on Christian Science by allowing visitors to see and hear the people who use Christian Science in their lives.

Among other features such as selected articles from the Christian Science periodicals and answers to frequently asked questions about Christian Science, the site also includes discussion forums. While they won't be used to discuss church issues, to proselytize, or to debate, the entire Christian Science community is invited to use them to help the general public get a better idea of what Christian Science is all about and the ways it helps people.

Further site development is being discussed and may include blog posts such as you're accustomed to reading on this site. There's a discussion forum for user feedback, so feel free to let us know what content you think would be helpful.

Enjoy the site.
