My Worship Revolution

Thanksgiving was good.  Today it’s tough to move, though, after playing capture the flag til 1 am Wednesday night and a couple hours of full contact tackle football early Thursday morning.  Man I’m outta shape…and older every year!

Wednesday night we had an awesome Thanksgiving Eve service.  Several times now we have had the opportunity to have Amanda Griffin dance.  Once with Laura Thompson and then again on her own.  this service her and Heather Myrick put together an amazing piece for us to worship to, with Jamie Petersen singing Gratitude by Nichole Nordeman. 

Whenever I’ve watched them dance during service it helps me to worship and feel so close to God as I watch their art.  Thank you to all of you for sharing your gift with us!  Watch the video below to check it out.  Enjoy!

Alright Revolution peeps, and anybody else reading who isn’t to far away to come join us for that matter.  Charlie Garrison is startin up a new Thanksgiving tradition that he’s brought over from Texas (I guess there may be something useful to come out of that dreadful state).  Tonight we play Capture the Flag!

Come one, come all.  The more the merrier.  We’ll be playing after our Thanksgiving Eve service, which means probably around 9:30 or 10:00 pm.  I think the plan is to do it around the corner from our pad at Sunshine Park in Cerritos. 

So come on out and join us!  Let me know if you need directions or more information.  So, who’s in?

This past Sunday, we got a taste of our first videocast in preperation for our multiple campuses.  It was lots of fun to experience and see it in action.  For this one I played the campus pastor role to see that in action as well.  Check out the video here.

It was made with these new toys tools we got for these.





 

Rachel’s mom was in town today, so she watched Caleb and Rachel and I were able to go on our first date in months!  It was so great to hang out and talk about life.  So it was dinner and a movie with some amazing gifts we got last month for Pastor Appreciation Month (thank life groups…felt really appreciated and were really blessed to get to be together!).

The movie we saw was Stranger Than Fiction starring Will Ferrell.  When reviewing this movie, I couldn’t help but compare it to Click.  I went to see that movie several months ago cause I was in the mood for a comedy.  In that one, they made an effort to make a profound point, and in my opinion it just got really depressing and I didn’t enjoy it at all cause I just wanted to laugh.  I’m reminded of that because this movie had a cool point to it as well, but was still encouraging, fun, and entertaining.  Not very dirty at all with the exception of a few sexual references. 

Rachel and I were just saying how it wasn’t really typical, goofy Will Ferrell, but we both really enjoyed it.  I would recommend it, and Rachel liked it, but also said it can wait for video.

Here we go.  I finally caught up with getting my weigh ins up.  Here they are.  The next one shouldn’t be far behind.

…and man I look hot!!

And here’s some footage from the first one:

I’m thinkin next year, I’ll start my own Bloody Knuckles World Championship.  Who’s in?

So this is a picture of Caleb and his cousin Ryan from when they met a few weeks ago.  I was looking at it again and it just cracks me up cause they totally look like two little men hanging out on the couch.

So I thought it would be fun to have a little caption contest.  Here’s the pic:

Now, give it your best shot!

Sorry if I sound insensitive, but I’ve always thought that midgets can just make anything funny.  I love them!  And I don’t want to hear anybody (ie. Charlie Garrison) making midget jokes about me because of this post.  I beat you to the punch, so I don’t wanna hear it!

Seriously, though, midgets rock.  This is a slightly disturbing article though.  Read the article here:

Lion Mutilates 42 Midgets in Cambodian Ring-Fight

Multiple people dying at the attack of a lion, not cool.  The image of 42 midgets in a ring trying to ward off a lion, slightly humorous.

Tonight’s the night!  It still doesn’t compare to 24, but a great show nonetheless.  Here’s a few sneak previews to get you anxious for tonight:
