Hilarious “Dad Life” music video from the folks at Church On The Move that is getting lots of attention these days:

Ever since I discovered Pomplamoose on YouTube a few months ago, our family has had a sort of fascination with them. We describe them to friends and family as our “internet music obsession”. I even downloaded a collection of their YouTube videos and made a DVD that finds its way onto the TV and surround sound quite often these days. The draw? Conservative, unique talent.
Pomplamoose is made up of Nataly Dawn and Jack Conte – California-based boyfriend-girlfriend. They have joined musical-forces and produce what they call, “VideoSongs” – a uniquely produced video of their original works as well as their cover-songs that must be seen/heard in order to be understood.
Case in point: “Telephone” (yes, a cover of a Lady Gaga song)>>
Read a great article by Eric Geiger this morning that has some great reminders about local church ministry. He says:
Often I hear deep lamenting from pastors and staff teams about the lack of volunteer engagement in their churches. And often I have discovered that the problem is not with the people but a faulty ministry culture that fosters low levels of volunteerism and perpetuates an unhealthy dependence on clergy. The typical approach to ministry in most churches stands in stark contrast to the biblical approach given to us clearly by God.

We already know some of the impact upon our society by Social Media, but this video gives us some great insight into just how great an impact…
Another video from the same producer:
One more from a different source, but similarly a GREAT view of the impact of Social Media:
I think those of us in ministry need to not only be aware of the astounding statistics, but apply them to our areas of ministry and share the information with those around us! Youth pastors: this third video should be shown at your next parents meeting!
