 * My front page is displaying “Category template” not the front page I was expecting.
   How do I change that?

 * I’m not exactly sure how you would come to have this situation in the first place.
   Perhaps you could provide a link to your website so I can see what you are speaking
   of.

 * It appears to me that you need to set what “page” you want as your front page
   under settings > reading.
 * Your current homepage is the common and correct blog listing index. You simply
   need to override it under the menu I stated above.

 * I don’t think I was clear. I don’t want a “static page”
    I just want the front
   page to look like your example with a larger headline posting box across the 
   top, followed by two columns of postings.

 * I see. That occurs by making a post “sticky” which forces it to the top regardless
   of new content. When looking at a list of all your posts in the admin click quick
   edit and check the box for “make sticky”.
