podcast

We re-designed our website awhile back and one feature that people were asking for is to create a podcast of the messages. They wanted something that they could subscribe to from iTunes or listen to from the site.

Before I came to Heartland they had a tape ministry. Raise your hand if you still have cassettes kicking around the house. Recording on tapes was a bit easier, I think, than onto a digital file. The tape player has LEDs that flash with the audio levels telling you if things are recording. But since we went to digital, the recordings have been about a 70% success. Which in baseball is a pretty good batting average - but this ain't ball. Lately we have been using garage band, then import into iweb, then publishing into a folder, then uploading with dreamweaver. That's alot of steps and alot of programs. Then there are issues with garage band. The levels are different from week to week, file size and compression - anybody know about this etc.

Anyways, there are now podcasts on the site and you can subscribe through iTunes. So, if your working in children's ministry and want to catch what happened when you were with the kids, you can subscribe to the podcast.
