CCoGMedia's New Look! Oct 02, 2006

Show notes

For those of you who have been downloading sermons from ccogmedia.org for some time, you were no doubt shocked at the new look this week. The site was out growing the server located in my home on which I have hosted this service since it's beginnning several years ago. So, I have started to move the sermons from the old site to a new site that has much better bandwidth available. This means faster downloads for those of you who download them to your PC rather than listen to them on-line. This also means that the Central Church of God sermons are now listed in Itunes as a Podcast. (Search for "Central Church of God" in the Itunes music store under podcasts). So far only sermons from late May to present are on the new site. I plan to move all of the sermons from the old site to the new one over the next several months. You can still see the sermon list in the table list format that was used on the old site by clicking on the year (2003, 2004, 2005 & 2006) listed under the Archives from old site title on the right side of the screen. I'm keeping the old listing format available for those that prefer the simpler table list format. These old lists will also provide access to the sermons that have not been moved to the new site yet.Please send your comments or questions to me at the link at the bottom of the page under the Questions or Comments title. - David
