On April 23, at 8PM, Dave Ramsey is offering a FREE, LIVE Simulcast of an event he’s calling the “Town Hall For Hope” that will be available nationwide via thousands of locations.

Our church just signed up to be a host-location. All we needed was a high speed broadband Internet connection, a projector, meeting place, and the willingness to host the event!

I can’t wait!

MOVIE/ALBUM REVIEW: Naturally 7, Live @ Montreaux

3.28.2009 — 1 Comment

d152More than likely, you have not yet heard of “Naturally 7” – the seven-member vocal-play group that is taking many other countries (other than the US) by storm. I was sent a YouTube clip of these guys a few weeks ago and I instantly knew I needed to add them to my “favorites list” as quickly as possible. A quick internet search netted me their live concert at the Montreaux Jazz Festival in 2007 on DVD.

These guys put a brand-new spin on the now-popular a capella music-style by reinventing themselves as “vocal play”. The way they explain it is that a capella means “voices without instruments” and vocal play means “voices as instruments”.

I love it.

The DVD features some familiar tracks from Simon & Garfunkle, Paul Simon, and even some samples from other familiar tunes mixed in with their VERY unique and original songs, too.

Jess and I sat and watched this entire DVD on Wednesday night (the day it came in the mail) and were pleasantly surprised to hear a Christian-faith coming through in both their lyrics and in the song transitions!

The members of Naturally 7 are: Dwight Stewart, Jamal Reed, Roger Thomas, Rod Eldridge, Warren Thomas, Garfield Buckley, & “Hops”.

I’m posting a few videos of Naturally 7 in action that maybe you can become fans of this group as quickly as we have!

Tonight Jess got to leave the house on her own for a few hours to enjoy a “Chick Flick” at the church. I got to spend some quality time with my daughter.

Ella was in a unique interview-worth mood tonight. I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to capture some great moments:

Haven’t heard a lot from the Salvation Army, but this commercial is fairly new and incredibly powerful. Love the production value, but especially the message:
