This is the first entry in the new Ekklesia blog, accompanying the relaunch of the web site. The first thing is to say a HUGE thanks to Joe Baker from eleutheria, who designed it. We would recommend him to anyone. He has been an absolute star.

The second thing is that the site is still a work in progress, but the new site brings not just a new look but also greatly increased functionality. And let's face it, the old site had some kind of space-age monster down the right hand side which badly needed retirement!

We have had blogs going in various places for a while - Simon Barrow has his FaithInSociety blog, and there is the Ekklesia Myspace blog, but this is our attempt to bring things together a bit:)

Let us know what you think of the new site, and what we can do to improve it...
