Not For Sale Campaign Video

I'm speechless

Mother's Day

Working with teens for the last 12ish years always surprizes me at how little kids do to honor their moms. This is what I imagine many of my kids doing! Enjoy!

The Worship Industry

This is a clip from Brian McLaren. He is someone who has taught me a lot about church, Christianity, and life. I had him as a prof at MHGS and even went out with him for a beer. This video was put out by a company called "The Work Of The People." I recommend you check them out for other great resources.

I'd love your thoughts about the content of this clip too.

Women In Christianity...



I'd love your thoughts on this video. Made by Jennifer at MYTRUESELF. Here’s jennifer’s first post about the video. then, jen’s follow-up post, responding to the accusation that her video was hateful toward men. i just don’t see this. i think the video is a beautiful piece of provacotive art, with (as is often true in good art) some pain juxtoposed by beauty. Note: this is a quote from marko, but it spoke of my thoughts as well.

And now for something completely different...

Thanks to MSHEDDEN for this. I love Steven Delopoulos and had not seen this video. It's called "The Ruin Of The Beast" It's odd and haunting and yet at the same time it has some light and encouragement for me. I'm wondering as you watch this what you think this is about. What is the "beast?"

The Story - Brandi Carlile Round 2



Let's see if this video works!

Have you all heard this song by Brandi Carlile? My girl can sing! I love the way this song speaks to the idea of being able to tell the stories that are on our face. And in a sense how we were made for relationship - or made to tell our stories! I dig her website too. Anyways I can't help but want to rock out every time I hear this song and she starts to kick it out!

Here are the lyrics...

"The Story" - By Brandi Carlile

All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I've been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don't mean anything
When you've got no one to tell them to
It's true...I was made for you

I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
Yeah you do and I was made for you

You see the smile that's on my mouth
Is hiding the words that don't come out
And all of my friends who think that I'm blessed
They don't know my head is a mess
No, they don't know who I really am
And they don't know what I've been through but you do
And I was made for you...
