What's in the Bible?

I'm not sure if y'all have heard... but there's a new video series for children (produced by the creator of Veggie Tales). It's called "What's in the Bible?" And what could be better than teaching the Bible to children??? They're even in the process of developing curriculum to accompany the videos. I'm excited about this resource and want to encourage y'all to visit their website: http://whatsinthebible.com

And there's a video posted on YouTube that will give you a preview of what's to come. Check it out: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G-Mnq_sqMus

The Diski Dance

Celebrate two South African passions - dancing and soccer - and submit an entry in the Diski Dance Competition! Official FIFA World Cup prizes will be awarded to the first place winners in group and individual categories.

The Diski Dance was initially created as a television ad promoting the 2010 FIFA World Cup and was quickly embraced by the people of South Africa as the official dance of the event.

"Diski" is South African township slang for football (a.k.a. soccer), and the Diski Dance is based on some of South Africa's creative football moves.

Want to know how to Diski? Check out the South Africa Tourism commercial and the "how to" video. To learn more, visit: WorldSoccerJourneys.com

So you think YOU can Diski???

Submit your entry as a group or as an individual by posting your Diski video to the following Facebook site: So you think you can Diski?

Learn the moves, create a video, enter and win...

Let the dancing begin!!!

Soweto Prayer

I've been keeping extremely busy with projects... so I've had little time to update my blog in the past several weeks. My most recent project has been creating a prayer video for the township of Soweto (on the outskirts of Johannesburg). I can't even begin to explain the details right now, because I'm still processing all that I've experienced. But please check out my completed video: Soweto Prayer.

As soon as I have the time, I'll try to post some photos from the Soweto area... with a brief description.

As always... thank you for your prayers!

Another year passes...

Wow! I'm getting old. Another birthday has come and gone.

God, you know the one wish that I would ask You to grant. But I pray instead that my desires and dreams be replaced by the dreams that You want for me. I just want You to be glorified through my life... even if that means that my wishes don't come true.

Lord, please help me face whatever comes my way during this next year of my life.

Downtown Joburg

These are just a few of the images that I took during my first
excursion to downtown Joburg...

2010...

It's a new year. A new place. A new beginning. There will be new experiences and new stories to tell. The one thing that isn't new... is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. God's love is enduring and everlasting. I am so blessed to know Him. May this new year bring many opportunities to teach others about God's love. May all of my projects, my travels, and my very life bring glory to Christ. That's why I am here. That's why I do what I do. Guide me, Father, as I journey into this new year.
