One of the most rewarding parts of working on the Gracepoint Fellowship Church website was the section entitled “Life at Gracepoint.” This section was to provide a snapshot view of our community. Pastor Ed Kang and his wife Kelly Kang cast a vision of allowing people to get a real intimate view of the inner workings of our church. Our members could post insights based on things that were going and would tie it all into our mission and values.
One of the design decisions I made was to go for an editorial feel, very similar to what you might get on nytimes.com. This conscience decision really paid off because it provided a very organic and warm feeling to the postings, all the while preserving the space above and below the fold. Kelly wanted a better navigation system, and so I developed a navigation bar based on our church values. Anyways, I thought it was pretty cool and neat. Doing a journal/blog system like this is tough to innovate on it, but I’m pretty happy with it. Check it out, there’s chock full of articles there.
Gracepoint Berkeley Web - Gracepoint Fellowship Church 
As an old webmaster for Gracepoint Fellowship Church in Berkeley, I visit your website frequently. One thing I wanted to share with you is that for the Life at Gracepoint page, when you get on it, it starts with one of the categories. It is highlighted, but I think there can be a more prominent highlight. Maybe it can have a larger font than the other categories (i.e., core value). Or you can have a sampling for each of the categories from the start and they can click to get more.
Just sharing some ideas,
