40 by si smith

for the past 40 days of lent i have been emailing people a different image from si smith’s wonderful illustrative interpretation of JESU’ time in the wilderness. since it is easter i thought i would share a youtube video of all 40 images. i love these illustrations.

a wedding music video?


this is great. instead of a normal wedding video these videographers make a wedding music video for you (i’m assuming this is along side a typical video of the actual event). this is great.

student documentary on tapestry


hilary is one of the ladies that leads music at tapestry‘s worship gatherings. she is also a student at uwsp and was taking a mass communication course this past semester. as a part of that course she and a fellow student decided to do their main class project on the development of tapestry. the above video is the result of their work. i think it is pretty cool.

i love the fact that when she asked me what i wanted my title to be i told her “pastor/ultimate fighter” and she put it in there. of course, she also misspelled my name but i’m pretty much used to that. everyone does.

jackie's baptism video


this is the pre-video that we showed at washington elementary (where we normal gather) before moving over to iverson park for the actual baptism. i’ve tacked jackie’s baptism on the the rear of the video.

give me a high five


i love improv everywhere. i’m not sure giving random people high fives as they go up an escalatorr is their best work but it still made me smile.

this is for arnold

awhile back arnold commented that he wanted to see video of me curling. turns out it was a little harder than i had imagined to get. there aren’t many places on the curling courts that will support a camera off the ice and aren’t blocked by a human body during the match. the above is the best i’ve been able to get out of about 4 tries. this is also going on during the match so i’m a little busy doing other things. so here it is arnold, it’s a boring shot, but it’s the best i have for you at the moment.

gillette on proselytsing


a very interesting video from penn gillette concerning a man giving him a gideon bible. i’m fascinated by gillette’s statement that he doesn’t respect people (of belief) who do not proselytize. his statement is “how much do you have to hate someone to not proselytize?”

ht tony jones

it's number 14 for him


i went fishing with andy for an hour and a half today. this was the result of that hour and a half. andy catches a ton of fish.

i on the other hand slipped while we were portaging the canoe and promptly fell into the wisconsin river.

this video is hosted on flickr using the video feature they added a few months ago. i haven’t used it before this video so i didn’t really have anything to comment on. while i have mixed feelings concerning video being on flickr, i do like how the manner in which they have put it together.
