"Don't Waste Your Life" Music Video

If you have not already seen it, check out the "Don't Waste Your Life" music video by Lecrae.

Binil's Testimony and Funeral Video/Slideshow

The following video is Binil's testimony of his journey with Christ. I plead with you, reading these words, to take a few minutes and watch the clips.



The next video is similar to the one above but to music (in an incredible way). In addition, there are a good amount of pictures and a humbling quote at the end.

The Awe Factor of....

Folks, check out this video. If this will not blow you away, I'm not exactly sure what will. Usually, we are blown away with things that happen in our own lives (e.g. vacations, experiences, hopes, problems).

If we take time to think of others, famous people, corporations, and news events come to mind (e.g. Iraq War, the falling economy, Google, C.C. Sabathia going to the Brewers).

But where should our awe be of God? This may help in realigning our perspective to reality. What other things can we do to help our perspective of life?

This May Cause Tears....

I saw this video on Justin Taylor's blog a few days ago and was reminded of this incredible story of an Autistic high school basketball manager named Jason McElwain.

Unashamed Tour

Over the past few weeks, I have started listening to rap music again! I'm not sure if I have any good reason outside of the heavy base in most of the music. I came across a record label called Reach Records (Tedashi, Lecrae, Trip Lee).

After listening to a few songs by these guys, I am blown away with two things: the lyrics and the music. These guys are dedicated to writing raps that are focused, purposeful, and full of meaning. Reach Records is traveling across the US doing concerts called the Unashamed Tour. Check out the calender to see if they are coming to a city near you.

If you check out their website, you can listen to a good amount of their music. I personally like Lecrae's "Break it Down" and "Fanatics" and any Trip Lee song.

Desiring God wrote a small piece on the tour too.

This is Lecrae's "Jezus Muzik."

Unstoppable Live

This past week I was sitting at work when the song "Unstoppable" popped into my head. It is one of those moments when you wonder, "why did that come to mind?"

Even more than the lyrics, it is sweet to see that this church (Bethlehem Baptist in Minneapolis, MN) has not only allowed, but provided a platform for the display of worship that is much different than the general culture of the congregation.
