EDDIE DANIELS – Well…here it is! What do you think?  Our pal Brian has been working on this new look for WJTL.com for quite a while now, and we hope you like it as much as we do. Personally, I love it!

Have a look around, and let us know what you think! You’ll find all of your favorite features from the old site are still here…they just look a lot cooler now and in many respects are much easier to find. For example, you can now listen live by clicking the little “speaker” icon near the top of the front page instead of clicking through to the old “listen live” page.

You can also stay connected to the Missions Blog and News Blogs (and the blogs of the WJTL gang) from the front page as well. No more having to click through to other sites…it’s all right here!

You can also feel a little safer about watching the JTL videos. All of them are fully viewable right here within the confines of the WJTL site, so you don’t have to worry about 3rd party videos you don’t want to see sneaking their way in.

There are a lot more cool things to discover about the new WJTL website, but we don’t want to give everything away. We’ll let you discover them on your own.

What’s your favorite thing about the new site? Leave a comment below, or drop me a line at eddie@wjtl.com. We’d love to hear from you!

And again, kudos, Brian!
