Run with God

How do you say "Rick Blackwood" in Espanol?

We're mixing it up online, and I wanted to give you a heads up.

CFWired.com is getting a rebirth, and one of it's new purposes is to be the home of CF's Message Archive. Messages preached by Rick Blackwood and Eric Geiger will be found online at CFWired.com

In addition to $3/CD and $5/DVD messages, you'll be able to stream audio of the messages in ENGLISH as well as SPANISH right from your web browser. 

Interested in Podcasts? You'll be able to get the messages on your iPhone/iPod in ENGLISH and SPANISH via separate podcasts.

One of my favorite features is "Share This". You just heard this great message. Share it with your friends. You can twitter, facebook, or email the message to your friends, and they can listen to it online too... great stuff... an easy way to share the message with the people in your life.

We'll have some new products and new features coming to CFWired very soon... stay tuned...

Goodbye Gear

Say goodbye to our old gear...

Years ago, @CFMiami had a very nice broadcast setup. We were using a ton of Standard Definition gear, and would broadcast our services live on a local cable channel.

Times have changed, and now we are using HD to send our services on IMAG, to other campuses, and now on WSVN Channel 7 (tape delayed).

The change of gear was pretty quick, and we honestly struggled with the question "what do we do with this old stuff?"

We tried to sell it ourself and it wasn't really working... but we finally found a solution that I believe will work... AVForSale

They're an electronics auction company based in Atlanta, GA - and I'm happy to report that in the next couple hours over 150 items from Christ Fellowship Miami's Old Production Studio will be delivered to them for reselling purposes!

Currently praying to God AVForSale does a great job liquidating these assets, and we can get some JINGLE to pour back into the ministry.

Check out AVForSale online at AVForSale.com, or follow them on Twitter at @AVForSale.

I'll let you know when the gear goes online for sale.

(Thanks to Jeff Borton and the CFStudents crew for driving the gear to Atlanta for me. They are currently at the Catalyst Conference, and I am jealous...)

The Official "Skeptics Welcome" Playlist, at a CFMiami campus near you...

With every new series at CF, we've been releasing a new playlist... Scouring MP3 libraries and online databases is quickly becoming one of my favorite parts of debuting a new series...

Here's the new "Skeptics Welcome" playlist... Feel free to get the songs you like from iTunes.com...

Favorite Track: Remix of How Great is our God by Hillsong United. Love the techno feel.

The whole mix can be found below:

For more information on "Skeptics Welcome", or Christ Fellowship Miami, check out CFMiami.org.

CFMedia Volunteers, go ahead and tell us to get lost... in multiple ways...

Two of my favorite websites are coming together, and it'll make your life easier!

Planning Center has released a Facebook Application (http://bit.ly/3dwhX4). You can install this on your Facebook Profile. Ultimately, when we schedule you, it'll notify your Facebook account, and you can accept (or tell us to get lost) through Facebook.

In addition, Planning Center also has an iPhone Application (http://bit.ly/vodI3), which will let you view the plans. You can also see when we schedule you, and it'll notify your Facebook account, and you can accept (or tell us to get lost) through the FREE iPhone Application. 

Don't have an iPhone, you can get Apps for your Palm and Android smartphones. Check their respective App Stores for "Planning Center Online". (Then you can explain to me why you have a Palm or Android Phone). UPDATE: They do have a BLACKBERRY option as well. This is a little more acceptable...

Don't have a smartphone? Don't check your email often? You can set up your Planning Center Online Account to TEXT YOUR MOBILE PHONE when you are scheduled, or when you receive an email through Planning Center. Log onto your Planning Center Account and click on [my account] in the upper right hand corner of your screen. Enter in your phone as a mobile phone, save the profile at the bottom of the page, and then you should be able to set up TXT information. Once you get the text, you can log into Planning Center to accept (or tell us to get lost).

Thanks. Looking forward to hearing from everybody (however it is that you hear from us!)...
