Interesting factoids about Northaven's
website
We've been looking at some of the statistics for
Northaven's website, and we thought you might be interested to see how the
greater community uses the Northaven
website.
As you know, Northaven Church publishes audio archives of each week's sermon at the website (you can find the archive here). Through the end of September, sermons have been streamed or downloaded a total of 2,128 times this year. (an average of 212 per month). Interestingly, there seems to have been a dramatic increase in the sermon downloads, beginning in April of this year.
Many of you have read Northaven's book "Finishing the Journey." A book commissioned prior to the United Methodist General Conference of 2000. (you can read the book online here) Clearly, this book continues to be inspiring and helpful to the community, as the greater Church continues to struggle with the issue of homosexuality in the church.
In fact, during this year, chapters from the book are downloaded an average of 314 times a month!! (3140 times for the year, through the end of September...) This is absolutely remarkable, considering the book is more than five years old, and that the General Conference is not meeting now. It speaks to the power and importance of this publication.
The website in general has had an average of 820 unique visitors per month this year. Visits to the website DO seem to be increasing throughout the year...with total visits in January totalling 880, and visits in September topping out at 1206.
Obviously, Northaven's website is just another of the ways that our church reaches out to the community at large!
