/* =========================================================================
   Mobile layout fixes (phones)
   -------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Two kinds of grids need opposite treatment on small screens:
   • Text + single-image "split" sections (grid-template-columns:1fr 1fr /
     1.2fr 1fr, set inline across the site) must STACK to one column so the
     image goes full-width and legible instead of being squeezed into a tiny
     half-column (e.g. Pastors Joseph & Cordelia on the homepage).
   • Multi-image "bento" grids (2fr 1fr 1fr) should stay multi-column so
     several photos remain visible at once — just tighter.
   These target the inline styles directly (author !important overrides a
   non-important inline declaration), so every current AND future page that
   follows the same convention is covered with no per-page edits.
