This weekend at Hillsong we launched our vision for 2010. There’s some cool plans for the year ahead…. A new church in Moscow, Reaching out to the needy at the World Cup in South Africa and probably the most exciting news, a new church in New York City!

For more info check out this video. If you aren’t interested in our vision watch the video anyways, the videography is amazing!

66 Books In A Year!

Stephen — Sat, 30 Jan 2010 11:15:20 +0000

29 days ago I started out on an adventure to read the complete Bible in one year. Sounds quite simple really, start in Genesis finish in Revelation, right? Well…. yes I could do that but one of my key objectives is to gain a better feel of how the 66 separate books slot together in terms of time.

The best way to fully understand events, people, places, prophecies and how they link together in a timescale is to take a chronological approach at reading the Bible.

The website YouVersion.com recently launched a ‘Reading Plans’ feature. Their superb range of studies differ in length and cover a wide range of Biblical subjects. You can image my excitement then when I discovered a chronological study which lasted 365 days.

29 days into my reading plan I have read almost all of Genesis and all of Job. Interestingly Job slotted in between Genesis 11 & 12 (who would have thought it?).

I’m really enjoying this plan so far and I look forward to learning more and more in the coming months. I’d also like blog my way through this journey if for no other reason than personal reference.

Best Christian Design

A few weeks ago I was having lunch with Phil (our new placement student) when we started talking about web galliers, such as ‘bestwebgalley’ and ‘cssremix’. We both visited these sites often and found lots of inspiration in them however we noticed there was a massive lack of designs related to Christianity.

In terms of religion (i sadly have to use that word) or global movements Christianity is light years ahead of the rest when it comes to volumn and quality of our sites. So why shouldn’t there be a site deadicated to promoting the very best Christian websites from around the world. Well after some more chatting we decided to give it a go and create such a site.

Over the last few weeks BestChristianDesign has been branded and coded behind the scenes and is really taking shape. This is a very exciting time as we’re hoping this site will have a big impact in promoting our faith to a whole new group of people within the design industry.

BestChristianDesign.com is due to launch on Wednesday 22nd July 2009

I’m pretty excited today over something most of you will not find interesting in the slightest but for me its a cool moment. stephencostello.com has finally made it onto a web gallery. it basically means someone actually thought my site was good enough to allow onto their gallery.

I’m hoping this will the site known throughout designer circles. The ultimate would be getting onto devinecss.com or even bestwebgallery.com but that will come in time folks for now you can view my site at the wpcount.com gallery. Check it out and givme a rating (a good one)!
