About hardware, not software...

It's nice to have basic tools for ministry. This post concerns itself with a piece of hardware which I have not had permanentl installed in my office until last week: a phone!

Before, we used a portable to give me phone access. The base remained in the office, and I took the portable handset into my office. When a call came in that was for me, the admin would "page" the handset, signaling me to pick up the call.

Problem was that construction of the building caused so much static I couldn't stay at my desk during the call. This made it hard to take notes or look something up.

We installed a phone system which gives me a phone in my office, three in/out lines, voice mail and the like. Now I just need to arrange for a server network so I can gain internat access from my office PC.

I know, I know. I'm never happy! :)
