Love this new commercial from FRS –

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

Losing Baby Tooth #3

1.29.2012 — 2 Comments

our 5-year-old tooth-pulling machine

Ella pulled out her third baby tooth last night. In total, I captured almost 2.5gb of video of the ordeal – almost an hour’s worth. After she finally went to bed last night I edited it down to about 3.5-minutes and uploaded it to YouTube. Enjoy!

She told us last night that she couldn’t wait to walk down the aisle at church to show everyone her new toothless smile. Her other top-front tooth is quite loose, too, so I expect that to come out probably within the week!

Why I Love Religion, and Love Jesus | Spoken Word

Terrific theological response to the quickly-gone-viral video, “Why I hate religion, but love Jesus” spoken word from a couple of weeks ago.

People are chipping in to help me get to Swaziland!

1.27.2012 — Leave a comment

I just finished these business cards for my sister this week:

Sher's business cards for JustEmbrace.org


She lovingly made a substantial donation toward my $3,000 I’m needing to raise to be a part of a mission team going to Swaziland, Africa this October! If you didn’t know I was going to Swaziland, check out the details at http://bit.ly/swazistevan. I’ve also recently finished a t-shirt design for another friend, a few more business cards for another friend and am currently finishing a prayer-card for a full-time missionary friend and his family!

I’m truly thankful for these who have offered to support me this way – and I still have a long way to go to reach my $3,000 goal. The first 1/3 of my fundraising goal is due in just over a month and I’m truly trusting the Lord to help provide the means for me to join our district-team on this incredible opportunity!

If you’re curious how you could help me(and I could possibly help YOU), visit – http://bit.ly/swazistevan or send me an email directly navets [at] gmail.com

Gift I Didn’t Deserve

1.27.2012 — Leave a comment

Back on the 17th, I blogged a quick embedded video of Marc Scibilia’s song, “Ain’t My Home”. I also tweeted the link a few times to try and send my social media circles to my site to enjoy the great new music I had just found.

Yup, that's really him.

Scott Moore – one of my followers, a former college peer of mine and the Community Life Pastor at First Wesleyan in Tuscaloosa, AL soon messaged me on Twitter asking me what I thought of Scibilia. I told him I was probably his newest fan and that I was excited to hear more from this new-to-me talent. A few message-interactions later I find out that Marc used to sometimes lead worship for when Scott was on staff at Eastern Hills Wesleyan back in the day! How cool is that connection? Scott told me he had something he wanted to send my way a day-or-so later, so I sent him my address.

In today’s mail I received this:

The disc reads: "Stevan - Hope you dig! Best, Marc"

After carefully analyzing the handwriting and making sure it wasn’t Scott’s… actually I messaged Scott and he said it was legit – Marc personalized mine!

Pretty cool gift for doing nothing more than posting a video and Tweeting a link a few times! Now I’m able to enjoy Scibilia’s 6-song EP! Thanks Scott, thanks Marc!
