  Is there a setting so my blog entries will only display the first few sentences or paragraphs of the text or is that something built into the themes?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  The Inuit Types theme has this function built into the theme. The Hemingway theme has two side by side truncated posts on the front page. Rather than going on about other themes I’ll skip to the end. I see you are using Black Letterhead. The good news is you can insert “the more tag” with the click of one button and split content in any post or post. See > http://en.support.wordpress.com/splitting-content/more-tag/
