Focus on the Family rolled out its new Web site and new logo today after 18 months of work.
"We've been busy making substantial changes to this Web site, with a lot of new and exciting features yet to come," John Fuller, vice president of audio and new media, said in a special welcome video on the Web site. It's "jam-packed with helpful information on family and faith."
The new site offers forums, blogs and polls. It includes a searchable archive of audio, video and text. In the new media center, visitors can browse the audio and video archive — and even create their own playlist.
Focus on the Family's new logo makes its debut on the new Web site, as well.
"This is the first new logo we've had since 1977, so I hope it's clear we are not an organization that's all about change just for change's sake," said Gary Schneeberger, vice president of media relations at Focus. "We made this change, after much prayer and planning, to reflect to today's families what it is we stand for.
"Quite simply, what we stand for is helping families thrive, through practical tools, spiritual resources and emotional support from the same Christian perspective we've offered for the past three decades."
Dr. James Dobson, founder and chairman of Focus on the Family, has his own corner of the Web site.
"You can get to know our founder even better," Fuller said. "Visit Dr. Dobson's corner by clicking the 'Learn More' link next to his picture. You'll be able to read his newsletters, listen to his podcasts and broadcasts, watch his commentaries, and stay regularly connected with him."
