this video is a response to Rob Bell's controversial video that started the entire fiasco. In no way are we parodying or making fun of Rob. Our hope is that we are graciously using his logic and appeal to emotion and turning it on it's head. The beauty of the gospel is that ALL the attributes of God win at the cross, not just love. Gods justice is satisfied, His holiness revealed, His love shown, etc. The cross is a cataclysmic crash between all of God's attributes showing that he is both JUST and JUSTIFIER of the one who does not work but trusts in Him.
UPDATE: just looking at the comment section I would like to articulate what I am trying to portray in this video. My main goal in this video was to show that God's justice and Love can be both held in congruence with each other, and Love in the end does indeed win. God's justice has been satisfied for those who turn to Jesus. I am in no way saying Hitler is beyond redemption, I am merely reversing the logic the original video posed about gandhi. I hope this helps, and I hope people see the love, grace, and mercy in Jesus. The teaching of this video and the analogies have their limits due to the fact I am trying to parrallel the original video. I hope in light of that the comments and critiques can be done in grace knowing that I whole heartedly believe Jesus came to bring "grace upon grace" (John Ch. 1) and that he put all the spiritual evil powers to shame at the cross. As Paul said so graciously, "God made us alive together with him, having forgiven us all our trespasses, by canceling the record of debt that stood against us with its legal demands. This he set aside, nailing it to the cross. He disarmed the rulers and authorities and put them to open shame, by triumphing over them in him."-Colossians 2.

A video I put together to encourage believers. I hope whether you are hiding in sin, or struggling in a trial, this video encourages you to ask for help and admit weakness, and allow the light to invade. The life of hiding is too hard to keep up. God wants us in a place of brokeness, because that is where His grace can truly take root. Psalm 51:17-"The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit; a broken and contrite heart, O God, you will not despise."

A poem I originally wrote for open mic at Pacific University. It highlights my journey with casual sex and the conclusion I came to that sex as recreation, or just for fun, is unable to satisfy us the way we were meant to be satisfied. Sex is good, in it's proper context. This poem mainly focuses though on anyone who has been deeply affected, hurt, and damaged by sexual sin. Forgiveness and mercy are given freely by Jesus. He cleans, restores, and heals us beyond measure and asks nothing in return. He saw all our sin and filth before he went to the cross and it was still his joy to go get us.
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest."-Matthew 11:28

Lecrae's "identity", Shai Linne's "Penelope Judd", and Andy Mineo were quoted in this also. Check the brothers out, they have been immense inspirations to me.
