Helping Smaller Ministries
With encouragement and resources
LightNEasy runs anywhere
LightNEasy doesn't require any fancy server stuff, just pure PHP, so will run smoothly in any web host, including most of the free ones. And yes, it works with PHP safe mode on. As SQLite is a standard feature supported by PHP5, and included also in many PHP4 webservers, LightNEasy uses SQLite for its own SQL database, or MySQL, if your server has MySQL.
FCK WYSIWYG editor
LighNEasy was built around the excelent open source online editor FCK Editor, whose work i thank and apreciate.
FCK is a javascript aplication so you need javascript enabled in your browser in order to edit the content in WYSIYG mode. You don't need javascript, however, to run the website or LightNEasy.

Should your church have a website?
Posted at 12/11/09 - 11:04 PM
The Internet is a powerful tool that churches use to expand their ministry, proclaim the gospel, advertise their church, and touch people. A PUBLICITY TOOL A web site is a publicity tool much like a yellow page or newspaper ad. More than 80% of the new people in your area will search the Internet to find a church. Although a web site will not suddenly make your church double in size it will bring new people into your church. A web site has many advantages over a yellow page ad (although you should have this too). You can put so much more information on a web site and you can communicate the personality of your church. A COMMUNICATIONS TOOL A web site is a great tool for communicating with your church members. You can keep a calendar of upcoming events and activities on your site. You can keep sermon outlines there for your members to review. You can post prayer requests (be careful with this one some may not want too much information available to the public). AN EXTENDED MINISTRY TOOL A web site reaches the entire world, not just your local community. Offering surfers a place to ask questions can be rewarding. Posting articles on various spiritual subjects can be a big help to others. Online Bible studies can help people grow in their faith. CONCLUSION The things that can be done with a church web site are limited only by your imagination. Don't expect a web site to work miracles in your church but do use it as a tool to supplement other tools and ministries.
