Some More Websites: Life Action and AWM

Back in November I blogged about a few websites I helped produce. We got a few more out the door in December:

Life Action Ministries strives to bring personal revival to Christians around North America. They publish two magazines, a great newsletter for pastors, and the Infuse Podcast. From a programming perspective this was an incredibly fun project: LAM wanted to inter-relate all their content together (blog post to product, product to article, article to podcast, etc.). The final solution works well, and I think it’s a great example of why the web is such a rich medium: you can’t do that sort of cross-referencing in the real world. We also incorporated some “geocoding” technology: the site automatically finds your longitude and latitude, and shows you LAM’s nearest conferences. LAM is a great ministry to work for: they get the web, and they’re really passionate about their ministry.

Arab World Ministries works to spread the gospel among the Arab world. (see how their name explains what they do? Nice and memorable, eh? ;-) This was another fun project due to the international flavor: we needed to support English, French, and Dutch — and eventually Arabic as well. They’re another great group of people, and it was a pleasure working with their staff on both sides of the Atlantic.
