Videos That Make Us Laugh and Think- Pt 6

By Dan | June 11, 2008

When I read something about this video, I checked it out right away and came away feeling a little disappointed. I had a hard time concentrating on his words while also watching the visuals. Some of it seemed kind of jerky. Some of it seemed kind of simplistic to me.

But then I watched it again. And another time. There was definitely something intriguing about it. Part of that was the concept, but part of it was also something more subtle His words about change were simple and you didn’t see anything revolutionary in the quick shots he took, but there was something to that.

Like he says, change is often in the simple little things. You see his appearance change a little. You see who he’s with change. You see simple changes like baseball and then football season, but as he says with his final two words, “Expect change”.

Do you expect change? Do you expect it at your church, or in your personal life?

Do you expect it in your faith? So often we live trying to avoid change, and perhaps most of all in things related to faith. After all, how much do you expect your faith to grow in a year, in a month, in a day? Do you set goals? It’s one thing to take a picture a day and see some changes in your appearance, but what would it be like to truly challenge yourself to change and grow in faith? And when you experiences setbacks in your faith, how can you let God take advantage of them as well?
