adding extra widget sidevar

my site is https://www.ravegrounds.com and im trying to add a sidebar in the middle where the one recent post is located so the site would become 3 column, 2 of which would be widgetized sidebars.

i inserted a new sidebar called “middle” based off of the sidebar “primary” that already existed in the file called sidebar-init.php. everything is good at this point because the new menu shows up in my admin area.

<?php

// Register widgetized areas

function the_widgets_init() {
    if ( !function_exists('register_sidebars') )
        return;

    register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Primary','id' => 'primary','description' => "Normal full width Sidebar", 'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">','after_widget' => '</div>','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '<span>?</span></h3>'));

    register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Middle','id' => 'middle','description' => "Normal full width Sidebar", 'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">','after_widget' => '</div>','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '<span>?</span></h3>'));	

    register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Secondary Left','id' => 'secondary-1', 'description' => "Left column (part of 2-col sidebar)", 'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">','after_widget' => '</div>','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '<span>?</span></h3>'));
    register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Secondary Right','id' => 'secondary-2', 'description' => "Right column (part of 2-col sidebar)", 'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">','after_widget' => '</div>','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '<span>?</span></h3>'));
    register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Footer 1','id' => 'footer-1', 'description' => "Widetized footer", 'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">','after_widget' => '</div>','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '</h3>'));
    register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Footer 2','id' => 'footer-2', 'description' => "Widetized footer", 'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">','after_widget' => '</div>','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '</h3>'));
    register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Footer 3','id' => 'footer-3', 'description' => "Widetized footer", 'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">','after_widget' => '</div>','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '</h3>'));
    register_sidebar(array('name' => 'Footer 4','id' => 'footer-4', 'description' => "Widetized footer", 'before_widget' => '<div id="%1$s" class="widget %2$s">','after_widget' => '</div>','before_title' => '<h3>','after_title' => '</h3>'));
}

add_action( 'init', 'the_widgets_init' );

?>

then i made a new file called sidebar2.php based off an file that was already there called sidebar.php. the new file looks like this

<div id="sidebar" class="col-right">

	<?php if (is_active_sidebar('middle')) : ?>
    <div class="middle">
		<?php dynamic_sidebar('middle'); ?>
	</div>
	<?php endif; ?>

</div><!-- /#sidebar -->

every time i post
<?php get_sidebar2(); ?>
in my index file, all the existing sidebar will disappear on my site. can someone see if i am missing something?
