Many of you have been asking “What’s going on in the world of disciplemen.com?” and, admittedly, we have been slow to respond.
As we all are aware, the economy has taken its toll on every area of industry and ministry. We are no exception. Everyone has had to tighten their belts and be prudent about prioritizing their expenses. For disciplemen.com, that means our development efforts have been slowed – but not stopped! It would be nice to be running with all the hares out there but jogging along with the tortoise is okay in my book because – as the tortoise says – “Slow and steady wins the race”.
So if you see something that needs fixing or have an idea for the website, please let us know.
Now, here are some of the things that will be happening with disciplemen.com in the near future:
Redesigned Members Directory page with improved search functionality and a “New Users” sidebar.
Changes to the posting of Recent Activities and the ability for each member to decide what activity will be viewable by others
Subscriptions (also called Auto-Notify). Each member will be notified by email when a resource has been added or changed that fit keywords selected by the member.
Recommendations. The ability to tag a resource as “recommended”. These will then show up on your profile so that others may know the resources you like and would recommend.
Redesigned Homepage. The homepage will list the 5 most recent users and resources, plus an area for information or testimonies.
Groups. We are working on implementing GROUPS within the site. Groups allows for the creation of subsets of members based on organizational affiliations. Once a moderator is assigned to the group, the moderator can create emails to be sent to everyone in their group. Further implementations will allow the groups to have their own “page” and blogs.
So, how can you help make these happen? First, continue to pray for this ministry and for the Lord’s favor. Second, if you have the means and the Lord prompts you, consider sending a gift to the ministry for the development efforts of disciplemen.com. Click here for more information on how to do that.
Thanks be to God for all of you and for your ministry to men!
