Giving Thanks

When I was a high-schooler at church camp, our pastor at the time (Dr. Lindsay) encouraged us to be thankful. He challenged us to write out 100 things that we were thankful for. This was a great exercise that I would do every year for a while.

It was very humbling and still is to realize just how much God has given us. But I hope I don't embrace the gift over the Giver. In Romans chapter 1, one of the condemnations of those who exchange the creation for the Creator is that they do not honor God nor are they thankful.

Which reminds me, what does an atheist actually do on Thanksgiving?

Video = latin for "I see"

I finally have a site for my hobby = movie productions.

Over the past year, I've produced videos for a church missions program, my sister-in-law's high school graduation, a memorial service, a wedding, a friend's surprise birthday party, a teaser for a seminar at our church and a few other things.

Currently I'm working on a video about my son, Caleb.

And for even more of a challenge, we're in pre-production for a Star Wars fan film. That's something I've wanted to do for a very long time. Hopefully, we can get it done by May 2007, which is the 30th anniversary of Star Wars.

QotD

I was reading the comments over at Justin Taylor's post about the recent sad news regarding the allegations of Ted Haggard's indiscretions and came across this quote:
Robert Murray McCheyne said: "The best of men, are men at best".
