Wednesday, July 16th, 2008This video on sharing faith really struck me as funny, but also as sadly true. Many of us fall into a couple of traps in terms of sharing faith. In the first camp, people try valiantly to talk about faith, but fall into traps like using Christianese terms, words that you’ve heard in church, but [...]
Videos That Make Us Laugh and Think- Pt 10- Not a Laugher- Reflections on Those Serving our Country
Wednesday, July 9th, 2008I know the 4th has just passed us, but please view this video. I hope this video touches your heart. I know many people have ambivalent feelings about the war, but we need to remember that those who are far away are real people, real fathers, mothers, sons, daughters, brothers, and sisters. All of them [...]
Videos That Make us Laugh and Think- Pt 9- Cute Kid Temptation
Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008So here are the first three of GodTube’s Top 10 videos of the week. You can watch all three if you like (#8 about the Pulpit/Grill device is pretty amusing too), but the first one, #10 is what I thought was most intriguing- and not just because it’s one of those cute kid videos.
I like this [...]
Videos That Make us Laugh and Think- Pt 8- Magic!
Wednesday, June 25th, 2008Do you like magic? Even if you don’t, I think you’ll find this video interesting. And if you can’t quite figure out how it works and you want to know, check this one out too.
Now I’ve loved magic since I was a kid and even dabbled in it for a little while, but it’s not [...]
Videos That Make Us Laugh and Think- Pt 7- Father’s Day
Wednesday, June 18th, 2008As I was trying to make my pick for this week I was looking at some interesting videos and then a forward came into my box. While it came too late for me to post last Wednesday, I think you might enjoy some of these Father’s Day tribute videos posted on Godtube.
These first couple of [...]
Videos That Make Us Laugh and Think- Pt 6
Wednesday, June 11th, 2008When 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. [...]
Videos That Make Us Laugh and Think- Pt 5
Wednesday, June 4th, 2008This may be the best video yet. I was laughing throughout it. (By the way was anyone else reminded of Michael Scott in The Office by this guy?) It has a number of angles though.
First, have you ever dealt with a person like this? Someone who basically thinks his or her [...]
Videos that Make us Laugh and Think- Pt 4
Wednesday, May 28th, 2008Do you love standing in the midst of the change explored in this video?
I do. Maybe, it’s because I love history so much and loved reading about the Renaissance, Reformation, Enlightenment, Industrial Revolution, etc, but there’s something fascinating about living in a generation that is on the verge of a major shift in history, especially [...]
Videos that Make us Laugh and Think- 3
Wednesday, May 21st, 2008Always Wear Sunscreen.
Does anyone remember when this song/speech came out? It’s hard (at least for me) to believe it was almost 10 years ago now, addressed to the class of 1999. I know these words spoke powerfully to many people. At least that must have been the case because it was played on the radio [...]
Videos that Make us Laugh and Think Pt. 2
Wednesday, May 14th, 2008This video obviously is calling for a little discussion. There’s not a lot of fence sitting going on in this clip. But you know what, I have to kind of sit on the fence with this subject.
Do people come to church to find their needs met, or do they come to church to serve?
As my [...]
