Southside Church
Chilliwack, British Columbia
http://www.southsidelife.com
I like this site because it gives a great deal of prominence to the stories of its members. The front page has a dominant feature about the life story of one of its members, and every page on the site has a prominent feature at the top of the right-hand sidebar which points to the story of one of its members. In all, there appear to be 14 stories (I might wish for more, but this is a good start). The stories are also used on LoveChilliwack.com, designed by the same firm (Stir Communications Group) which had a part in developing SouthSideLife.com and also ChilliwackLife.com (which is a community portal with a subtle strategy, I believe, of bringing unbelievers into relationship with local churches).
Contacts: If I’m not mistaken, Stir Communications Group is behind much of the work here (and also behind KamloopsLife.com which is similar to LoveChilliwack.com).
I believe that the internet provides today's church with a historic opportunity .... to tell the old, old story of Jesus and His love in ways which could only have been imagined in times past. The objective of this website is to explore the various ways in which today's technology can be used to spread the gospel around the world.
