My church asked me to talk about poverty a little bit to tie into a message about how much money we spend at Christmas and what we spend our money. He asked us to think about how much we spend on people or how much people spend on us that is wasted because we don’t like the gift or whatever.
The sermon can be found online here : http://www.nsb.org/sermons/a-classic-christmas
Anyway, he asked me to put something together for the service, kind of like a voice from within Northshore (the church i go to). So, I asked Devin to help. We shot it all on a Nikon D300s, 50mm f/1.4 with a RØDE microphone with video lights in front of a huge seamless backdrop.
The song is Needles and Thread by Sleeping at Last.

well put. I think you have articulated a lot of people’s fear. but it is necessary to remember it is not done on our strength and power. right? Great to see you this weekend friend!
i just found this…i don’t think my RSS was working for your blog for some reason. The video is super clean and well put together, and I think God will definitely use the ideas that you communicated to people. It made me remember how awesome Bulgarian Christmas was, amongst other things.
