Do Me A Favor

April 26th, 2007 Leave a comment Go to comments

Please do me a favor – watch this video. It’s only 10 minutes, 24 seconds long:

001 Rain | Rob Bell : Nooma.com (click here to watch)

You may have to wait a few minutes for it to load, depending on your internet connection speed.

Tell me what you think of it. Personally, I love the Nooma videos (and both of Rob Bell’s books: Sex God and Velvet Elvis). At the time of this writing I’ve purchased 8 of the 15 Nooma videos that have been produced to date. My favorite is Breathe.

    SWEET! I didn’t know we could post videos here too!

    I’ll watch yours then post one of mine. ;)

    FYI, possible road trip that will take me through your area around May 10th.

    I have all 15 in the series and I have been showing them to my high schoolers. They love them. Some day when I have to preach in front of the whole congregation I am going to use video 1 as part of my sermon.

    I love the Nooma videos! Rob does a fantastic job with these. We use these in our small groups at times. I have about 6 right now and my fav would have to be Dust.

    it’s amazing no matter how many times I see this, I still shed tears. Each time it reminds me of my son and myself and all the times we have had like that. I remember the times that when I have been broken and hurt. Then to just feel his arms wrapped around me when I needed him most and knwoing that I’m loved. No matter how much I yelled at him thinking he was not there. Man how wrong could I have been, he is always there for us and will be forever. Thanks for the reminder Donny.

    The way he interacts with his son in this video reminds me of the way you describe your relationship with your son. Rob Bell’s a great guy; he came and spoke to us a while back at The Next Level Church in Denver. Thanks for the link and for the opportunity to check out a great video once again.
