– Feb 2012 -

The “website focus” for this month is to continue to “load up” the content.  For many years the Headquarter’s Ministers have sent out sermons in the National Tape Program & TV Broadcasts of the Armor of God.  My first Goal is to make all of this material available as MP3 audio files, and later as video files for online viewing or Download.  Have you ever wondered what Vance Stinson has to say about the Antichrist?, or Bill Watson about Marriage?  These topics (and many more) will be available here, as material gets posted.

Additionally, we will make available a list of the messages each year, (covered by the Armour of God program, or the Weekly Sermon from Tyler, Texas), and this will provide a resource for you to see the topics covered and “brush up” on messages that you may have heard before, or that you may be hearing for the first time.  God’s Word has lots to say on lots of Subjects, so this online resource material from the Church of God International should be a great archive that you can use to “fill in the gaps” of your understanding of the Bible, Christian living principles, prophesy, history, world events, and more!

Please feel free to use the “search” box on the top left column of most of this site’s webpages … or further down the column is a list of “tag subjects” that can also help you find materials on specific topics.

Be on the lookout for the new material, and feel free to leave a comment on messages that you found helpful.

- Jan 2012 -

The CgiCanada.org Website was redesigned & launched in Jan 2012 to accomplish several goals:

• Update the “frumpy look” of the old website … via the latest website creation tools
• Make it easy for visitors to find Church Service locations & times in Canada
• Promote the excellent resources available from local CGI church websites in Canada … including live webcast services, & streaming video of past sermons.  Prominent buttons on our home page make it easy to find these other great sites
• Provide a great archive of Church of God International “educational resources” including booklets, articles, MP3 audio sermons, AVI downloadable video sermons (that can be burned onto DVDs & played on DVD players that support “DIVX”)
• With tools such as Youtube, CgiCanada can “renew” some of our “downloadable video” and allow you to now Stream the video onto your computer (without having to download it all before viewing)
• Provide new opportunities for visitors to post comments on the materials provided on our website, AND, to utilize tools such as Facebook & Twitter to allow visitors to promote materials that they find interesting, useful, or helpful
• With capabilities such as RSS feeds, CgiCanada can be updated automatically with links to new content (sermons or articles) available from other CGI sites
• By utilizing categories & tags for our content – and providing search options – we hope to provide a “central place” where you can search and find CGI materials (sermons & booklets & articles) to answer the questions you are wondering about, or to supplement a study you are undertaking.  (Please note the categories & tags that are listed on the sidebar of this page … and feel free to explore them!  They are powerful tools to point you to some great materials)
• Unlimited possibilities …We are now being hosted on a website that allows us “unlimited” storage, and “unlimited” bandwidth for visitors to share our materials … Hopefully we can test the limits of “unlimited” by hosting more of the great “timeless” sermons from the past years.
• Our visitors can help us out by making comments on the “key points” of the Sermon or booklet & perhaps comment on messages that were “great” or “not so good” … and this will help other visitors know — by reading your comments — whether a specific message is a “good fit” for what they are seeking
• Visitors can help out with suggestions for the website — we welcome your comments!

We hope you find the new website a useful tool in your study of God’s word and in your personal walk with Jesus Christ.  As we strive to grow and improve every day, we hope to see that both our lives (and this website) will remain permanently “under construction”
