created out of nothing

Sean — Thu, 02 Jun 2011 14:09:40 +0000

Lately, I’ve been listening to the song below a lot because it reminds me of a favorite thought about God, “creatio ex nihilo” or “created out of nothing.” I think it’s a favorite thought of mine because I relate so well to it. Here’s a link to a blog I wrote a couple years ago concerning this thought: creatio ex nihilo.

Artist: Gungor
Song: Beautiful Things

message 5.29.11

It’s been a busy but refreshing last couple of weeks. Last weekend, I had the opportunity to lead worship at our church. This weekend, I had the opportunity to preach…to adults. If you would have asked me a year ago if I’d be preaching to adults…I would have said, “I don’t even know if I want to go back into ministry.”

It’s hard to believe that I’ve been out of “professional” ministry for close to a year to the date. I find myself questioning a lot of things. Is it ironic that after six years going full-throttle in ministry that I’ve spent this last year (my seventh year) unemployed and finding rest and recovery in acts of pure service to different churches? Maybe it’s a sabbatical or jubilee that God has provided? I understand that it’s possible I’m reading into everything. But it’s also possible that God, in His sovereignty, could be preparing me for something. I’m not sure what God has in store. Only time will tell. I trust that God will continue providing clarity.

Below is my message from the weekend. It was for a series called, “Life Happens.” We’re going through the book of Philippians. My main text was Philippians 4:4-7. Also, I heavily used the movie, Stranger Than Fiction as an illustration.

worship 5.22.11

Over the weekend, I had the opportunity to lead worship at Grace Ann Arbor again. Julie (my wife) was able to sing with me this time, which was an added bonus. The videographer is just a tripod in the back of the room and the camera is just a flip. So no fancy camera work but you can hear the room filled with worship!

“where the wild things are” series trailer

Sean — Sat, 22 Aug 2009 18:34:18 +0000

This past week, our family ministry team, at church, took on a night of camping to film for our September series called, “Where The Wild Things Are.” Obviously, we did not come up with that name but considering the REAL movie comes out in October we decided to do our own interpretation of the movie. This is the series trailer that I created to be shown on the TV’s around the church as well as in each age-group environment (birth-high school).

This was the most challenging thing I’ve filmed for two reasons:

I was in it. I had to frame up the shots, press record and act (poor attempt at acting, of course).
There were 8 people in it. There were a lot of people to work with…It was easy to default by having everybody in each shot especially because of reason “1″ (I was the camera man and in the shots at the same time). I tried my best to not have everybody in each shot.

Take a look at the trailer. I will post each episode as they’re completed. There will be four a total of four short films when I’m done.

gum story

I know, I know…It’s been a long time. So, I thought I would post a video confession that I’ve done recently for the student ministry at church. We used it as an illustration for our high school gathering called, “Frequency.” It’s definitely raw, but intended that way. I hope God speaks to you in some way through this simple memory I have of my grandpa.

responsibility pt. 2

This is in response to my last blog called “responsibility”. I was able to use it for a series we did at church called, “Out Here”.

An Easter Confessional

Sean — Thu, 20 Mar 2008 16:25:32 +0000

This is a true story. Do not try this at home. This film is not suitable for little kids or people who still believe in the Easter Bunny!

Enjoy!

storm

Sean — Fri, 07 Mar 2008 22:50:01 +0000

Storm is a video I made for student gathering at church for our Jonah series. It is video of the ocean while a storm was rolling in over vacation in Myrtle Beach. The text includes Jonah’s prayer from inside the fish and the audio is Lifehouse’s song, “Storm”. I think this song provides an interesting Christocentric lens over the text from the Old Testament.
