We asked (or someone asked at some point) the 10 most beautiful women in the world the same question, and they were like "who are you ...

Part 2 of my Christmas tribute to my parents: Carl & Roberta Pfanstiel. This video sketches out some stories and how they relate to my parents' amazing character.

Anna and Dad (Philip) explore Nebuchadnezzar's dream about a statue made of different medals and compare it to the Hebrew Menorah. A very unique take by some very eweneek peoples.

The amazing Abby host a fascinating and non-edumakational video making slime and discussing stars and what's wrong with her dad. Seriously, this guy needs help. Send donations and straight jacket...

Comparing Elijah's response to Jezebel to the Apostles response to the Sanhedrin a few interesting nuggets show up. Do we lean in, or hold back? Is it how much God has of us, or how much we have ...

Can Satan Win? Is Satan playing the spoiler, or does he have a plan to win? From his schemes it seems that he does have a plan and it may involve time, mankind's collusion, sorcery, dimensional c...

The kids had a blast at Haikey Park doing a lip sync to Toby Mac's song "Til the Day I Die." Great song, message and awesome kids.

A gift, a poison, a release of prisoners. Is there anything forgiveness can't do, or unforgiveness undo? What does true forgiveness look like and what does it have to do with scales, monkeys, sil...

The first in my 10th Man (or Woman) series: When the currents of family, friends, society, CW are going one way, can you (or me) go it alone in the opposite direction? What does it take to be a pe...

Note: Pentecost not Passover is the Summer...

What does witchcraft, sorcery, legalism, blood, salt and sandal covenants have to do with the Menorah and the whole arc of history? And what is this about training elephants, Treblinka and systems...

Alyssa committed suicide three years ago today (10/3/13). I wrote a poem the week after her death. That poem, some thoughts and memories of Alyssa and a take away (yes, I'm still in teacher mode)...

Alyssa Crowe went to be with Jesus three years ago today. She signed "Amazing Grace - My Chains Are Gone" for a talent show video that our leadership class made (she also starred in some skits and...

The kids and I have been working on this all summer. Daddy finally edited it together. My kids are a hoot and such a blessing. I thank God and Tamara (their mom) for these wonderful kids, and Na...

Patience, perseverance, taking chances and living life without regret. How do these ideas fit in the Christian walk. Philip explores this with some talk-outs, artistic masterpieces (that his kids...

If you're going to fail, would you rather do it on your terms or on what everyone else is telling you to do? Not to give away the video but does the Bible encourage presumption? Is it wrong for u...

The Battle of Midway was the turning point in the Pacific Theater. What made this victory possible is, to me, one of the saddest and yet most profound stories of sacrifice I know. I apologize ahe...

What is the most appropriate symbol for Christians to use? The Cross? The Crucifix? The Menorah? This video explores the themes and major ideas of "The Lost in Translation" series by John Klein...

42nd birthday was one to remember. One of the lowest days in my life. Thankfully I had few options but to turn to God. The scapegoat (for Azazel) is an interesting concept that ties back into the G...

Live (2 year delay) from Hell. Philip explores the topic of Hell from the Valley of Gehenna / Hinnom south of the Old City of Jerusalem. This is the area that Jesus referred to when he spoke abou...

Is this the worst advice ever? Or something we should all do when making big decisions? What's the worst thing that can happen? What are the consequences of our sins?

The Abyss beckons to those...

There is an awakening that is more powerful, spectacular and epic then The force's "awakening." Its been prophesied, anticipated and hoped for, for more then 2500 years. So what is the Ephraim Aw...

Do the wind, wave and circumstances dictate our lives, or does God direct us? How to respond when the circumstances of life come against us.

with apologies to The Imperials' song "Let the Wind B...

Not actual hell, just when life feels that way. How do we hear from God and how do we know its God when life turns upside down? An emotion filled introspection I videoed two weeks ago which woul...

Yeh, Yeh, the Force Awakens, but what if we're actually living the Phantom Menace. Or at least the plot (yes it had a plot) of the prequels.

Are we being played by Donald Trump? I like Donald Trump, he's very entertaining and brings up many interesting points. But, him becoming our next presidents begs some very uncomfortable questions.

Or shall we look for another? My first serious "documini" is about the true nature of Israel. Is it a fulfillment of prophecy, UN nation building, an Illuminati/Rothschild conspiracy or the cause...

I'll be wrong about some (and hopefully most) of these predictions. But if I'm even half right then its time to get ready. "One year early is better than one day late."

In the book of Daniel, Daniel receives a vision from Gabriel about two enigmatic kings. The King of the North and the King of the South. I think I've discovered their identities that will help us...

I had a very fascinating and prophetic dream about Russian President Putin last month. Let me know what you think the dream means or if God shows you the interpretation.

This Iran Deal / Pact / Charade / Farce would be laughable if it weren't so dangerous. While striking down the deal may cost the US (leaning into the punch), not striking it down will be far worse...

Probably an over analysis of the recent AT&T DirecTV merger commercial. It seems there is a lot more to this video then just the merger. Could it be yet more predictive programming about the poss...

So I quit my teaching job, now my plate is SOOOO full of stuff I need to do ... that I end up playing video games and/or watching sports. This loss of traction leads to me listening to all the wro...

Is Chuck E Cheese part of the Illuminati? Philip loves CEC and has been going there since he was a child (and technically still is - we're guessing). Anyway, recent changes begs the question of j...

A little diddy about an epiphany I had recently at a waterpark, and it wasn't just that I need to reapply sunscreen to avoid getting burnt.

One part movie review (The Kingsmen), one part query (What was Jesus Thinking?), this pfile weaves these two strands together adequately and comes to a conclusion (near the end, watch for it). Also...

The age old debate between striving and working hard amongst type A cholerics is no still unresolved. But for those seeking God's take on it, this might help.

Red or Blue Pill? Life is hard enough as it is, why make it harder by taking the red pill? That's a serious question. Please talk me out of taking the red pill. The blue pill does look like Ibu...

This world is filled with confusion, conspiracies and conjecture. How does one keep from getting turned around, upside down and deceived at depth?

Funny that since I learned more stuff and might ...

How does knowing that you're wrong, make you a more powerful person? What is the knowledge paradox and how does it keep one humble and powerful?

A briefer pondering of the Catch 22 that prophets would find themselves in. Mamma don't let your babies grow up to prophets - its a no win situation.

I love these songs by Needtobreathe, and thought they would make a good juxtaposition with images from the ongoing Arab-Israeli conflict. Favorite line "when the answers and the truth take differe...

When is the rapture and can we even know? Philip tackles some of the prevalent thoughts about the rapture and presents another option that is Biblically sound, makes more sense and may just save y...

Philip explores biblical prophecy and how events might unfold in the Middle East. One of these prophesied wars may be closer than anyone imagines and its not the Tribulation but the Psalm 83 War.

This isn't the best post. In fact its kinda of lame. I'm not trying to do reverse psychology and say its pathetic so you'll watch it. In fact I hope very few people watch it. My other videos ar...
