Here’s a revealing video of Vice-Presidential nominee Sarah Palin. Here’s a video of her at Wasilla Assembly of God, telling a little about her background, and growing up in that church.
What’s even more interesting is that this same video, and pieces of it, are being used by people who are scared of religious-right wing-fundamentalist-wacko-extremists.

An alternate source is this one, sent to me by Jim Wells. Thanks, Jim.
A moving story of the song, Healer. Watch this, then watch the live Hillsongs performance.
An odd coincidence, isn’t it?
You just never know who might run for political office!
Saw this great video on Josh Griffin’s More Than Dodgeball blog. Love the video; I guess I need to check out the book. (And, yes, I find myself complaining way too much.)
Just got done watching myself, again, on the Church Drama Podcast. Posted the video of Episode 60.6, which is me doing a monologue about…well, the underlying message is about society’s current view of homosexuality and the ways people try to justify it.
After the monologue, Trudi calls it a political statement, and because society has made it a political issue, I guess it is. But it’s really a moral issue.
One line I wish I had added to the sketch would be right after I talk about Jesus pardoning the thief on the cross, I should have said, “And how has Jesus promised to come to us? As a thief in the night! Indeed – what would Jesus do?”
You’ll understand that better if you watch the video.
Finally got episode 49 of the Church Drama Podcast up and going. As always, the video version is shorter than the audio version. In the audio version I mention a thought-provoking post from the blog of Jeff and Melodie Leake. He’s one of the guys that’s involved in the FutureAG blog.
Moving article and video from the Wall Street Journal. (The video is PG for language.)
I found it moving and sad – not sad because the guy is dying, but because God seems to be irrelevant to him in his most critical time. He has seemingly learned and experienced much in life – but I wonder if he has learned the most important thing.
If you haven’t seen it, here’s a kid who taught himself to play the piano by listening to Little Einstein CD’s. (I saw this on Jeff Leake’s blog.)
I’ll be in Lakeland this weekend for the All Church Ministries Convention, hosted by Lakeland Victory and generated by the Pen. Florida Assemblies of God.
I am teaching workshops on blogging/podcasting (yes, some in the class are looking at this right now) and Bible Quiz.
The blogging/podcasting workshop will be in the Media Center at 1:40pm Friday and 11:45am Saturday. The Bible Quiz workshop and Teen Bible Quiz coaches meeting will be in Room FLC 110 on Saturday.
For the “Ministry on My iPod” class, here’s an example of using a YouTube video in your blog. (It’s an old video we posted several months ago.)
Here’s a nice idea someone implemented…
