Sonseed Strikes Back!

10/03/2008 11:33 AM
Picture 1
A few weeks ago I posted a 1980s-style video from a band called Sonseed. The song was titled Jesus Is My Friend, and it was quite possibly one of the tackiest, and therefore most awesome, Christian songs every created.

I honestly didn’t know if it was for real or if it was a hoax. In fact, there are even several websites online that try to debunk the video and show that it’s fake.

Thanks to Bob Hyatt, however, we now know that this video is real! There really was a Sonseed band, they really released an album, and they really went on that horrible show and played that horrible song on it.

Want more? I knew you would! You can download the entire Sonseed album from my website at this link. It was an indie album that hasn’t been in production for about 20 years, so you can do it guilt-free.

Still want more? How about ringtones!!??? That’s right, this link will download a zip file with a Jesus Is My Friend ringtone both for regular phones and, most importantly, for the iPhone.

Merry Christmas to all of you. You can thank me later.

Colbert vs. Atheists

Just for fun, here’s an amazingly funny segment that we showed last week to open up our church service as an example of a Christian doing a very poor job of discussing religion with an atheist:

This has to be one of my favorite Saturday night videos in a while. Welcome back, Tina Fey!

Stephen Colbert vs. Rain

05/08/2008 05:51 AM
On what has to be one of the best and funniest shows on television (The Colbert Report), Stephen Colbert challenged Korean pop singer Rain to settle a dispute using a manly method: an old-fashioned dance-off.

Colbert was miffed because Rain beat him out of the top spot in Time Magazine's online poll of the "100 Most Influential People." After weeks of taunting Rain, the two battled it out in what can only be called an epic struggle.

Self-confession: I used to be a Late Show With David Letterman junkie, but Colbert has won my late-night heart this year. The guy is sheer comic genius!

I don't find many YouTube videos that I think are worth sharing, but these two are hilarious. Enjoy!

Allow Myself to Introduce...Myself

I got an email today from...myself. Now, this isn't exactly the first time this has happened, but it was different this time.

The first Josh Crain who contacted me was a Calvinist college student who disagreed with my critiques of Albert Mohler's handling of the Katrina hurricane. This Josh Crain is a tattoo artist from Oklahoma, but I welcomed both emails all the same.

I don’t even know where to start.  The differences between driving in Dallas and Chicago are too numerous to count.  In fact, I made a list of my favorites...

The Alligator Debacle

Alligator-06
Truthfully I don’t know what to say about this.  My parents have lived on the same plot of land in East Texas for twenty years.  They’ve seen wildlife in their time, from raccoons to coyotes to deer.  However, in all the years that they’ve lived here they’d never seen...

...an alligator.

Whirlyball

Whirlyball
Last week I took the college students from my church to go play whirlyball.  In case you’re unfamiliar, whirlyball is a sport played by two teams of five people while riding around a basketball court in bumper cars.  The object of the game is to nail each other as hard as you can with your cars…or maybe that’s not the object, but some of us certainly thought it was.

Texas People and (Semi) Cold Weather

Picture 2-2
II know what doesn’t happen in Chicago or Denver or Kansas City when it’s 35 degrees outside and there’s a light snow.  I know they don’t close the roads down, shut down the schools, and cancel church services.

Here in Texas, however, we don’t quite have our cold weather act together.  Every time the temperature drops below sixty I see men, women and children bundling up like they’re going out of the atmosphere. Read More...

Failing Starbucks

Starbucks
Something inside of me is devastatingly intimidated by Starbucks. It may sound silly, but every time I walk to the counter I feel like I’m back in college and about to take a test that I haven’t studied for at all.  The server stares at me in anticipation, impatiently awaiting what should be no less than a 16 word description for a cup of coffee.
