So … a funny thing happened on the way to the latest Cephas Hour …
… except it wasn’t all that funny.
What should have been routine site maintenance quickly turned into disaster, as a WordPress plugin plugged itself into a live wire and exploded, taking everything else with it.
Oh goody.
The “help” desk at my provider was the not-so holy trinity of helpless, hopeless, and hapless (note to self: dump GoDaddy ASAP), so I dusted off my long-dormant website skills and set to work. I reinstalled WordPress, knowing it would demolish most everything, but there was no alternative. Some MySQL sleight of hand reconnected the re-installed site to its existing database, thus preserving all the old ghosts … er, posts. Y’all caught the Prayer Chain reference there, I trust. A re-installation and activation of the preferred theme, thus restoring the site’s layout, and voilà! Almost back to normal. I need to reactivate the site’s security certificates, but that is forthcoming.
Regrettably, all of the site graphics seem to have vanished, thus leaving me with the unenviable chore of finding and reloading 110 or so album covers, artist photos, etc. This will take a while, and I might hold off until I find a new provider so I’m not doing everything twice.
Anyway, there is a new show recorded the same day everything on the site took a dive. It features a lot of Mylon LeFevre (rest in glory, brother), plus songs from Tom Howard, Larry Norman, and Rachel Wilhelm. Rachel is very much alive, by the way.
Stay tuned.

I am glad you got everything worked out, or at least have a semblance of a plan to get everything back on track. I am equally grateful that you got an episode put together celebrating Mylon. When I read of his passing I spent the next several days going through his catalog of music. I spent a considerable amount of time focused on his album “More,” which is a longtime favorite of mine by Mylon, and practically a terrific worship album if I say so myself. He will be missed, but I will cherish his music and the memories till we meet again on that “Train up in the sky!”
Thx, Jerry!!! Stranger To Danger is my fave…still brings me to tears at times. Great video from back in the day. https://youtu.be/N4jnivqzF4o?si=v1hhlU8XPrOMwapX
