I’ve been a fan of YouTubers Rhett & Link for a long time. These are the guys behind a more than a couple genius, viral videos (Chuck Testa, Dope Zebra) Just today, however, I found out that they had some videos I had not yet seen. I knew the guys were Christians and was very glad to show off their YouTube videos often because of their family-friendly nature. What I didn’t know, was that they released a series of videos with the folks at JellyTelly.com under the guise of “The Fabulous Bentley Brothers”. The videos consist of an original song explaining some of the highlights of a specific book of the Bible. I was only able to find 8 of them, so far, on YouTube – I’m hoping to get my hands on as many as they have completed eventually!

If you have small children, I think you’re going to want to add these to your ‘favorites’ as soon as possible –

Genesis-

Leviticus –

Deuteronomy –

Judges –

2 Samuel –

Our two children being introduced to their first Bentley Brothers video just this afternoon:

Nathan Barnatt – one of my favorite YouTubers was featured as a TED Talk presenter in Phoenix late last year. In his talk, he gives some great background on why exactly it is he does what he does – at least why he does his crazy dance moves in public places –

Caring Counts

This is so cool. As people arrived for our prayer and Bible Study tonight at church, one of our ladies asked me, “Do you want another copy?” as she handed me today’s “Shippensburg Sentinel”. I said, “Why would I?”

I had no idea that our adorable Kindergartner had her picture in it!

Ella was recognized as one of two in her class for displaying the character trait of “caring” in the month of December! We knew about her being recognized for this (we have a certificate she brought home), but we had no idea it would be in the newspaper!

I’m one proud Daddy!

How cool is this? On January 23rd, the Pennsylvania House of Representatives declared this year, 2012, the “the year of the Bible”!

“As not only Pennsylvania, but the United States, continues to face great tests and challenges, House Resolution 535 serves as a reminder that we must look to our faith in God and the Holy Scripture to provide us with the strength, wisdom and courage to conquer these great trials,” Rep. Rick Saccone (R), who sponsored the resolution, said.

Yet another reason I’m proud to be a Pennsylvanian!

Love this new commercial from FRS –

I also love that they shot some quick behind-the-scenes clips while they were filming it:
