absent.
excited for the conversation that this documentary is provoking. ABSENT by the guy who did the story on american meth, justin hunt. i’ve seen this in my own work. for the past 10 years i’ve walked alongside some 100 young men through our local juvenile justice system..and the thread that runs through all of their stories is a father who is absent: physically and/or emotionally. and like those young men the stories in this documentary are unsettling similar…absent dads. justin draws on the life stories of a varied cast: a rock star- Metallica frontman James Hetfield, an author – John Eldredge and several others.
stay tuned on its release….visit the website and sign up for the newsletter. follow them on facebook.

catch a grenade on holy saturday
every week for the past couple of months i’ve picked up a group of young men who are all freshman in high school to take to evo student ministry. and as it turns out, they’ve ended up in my small group each week…i’ve really grown to love who they are. they have amazing talents and have open hearts and minds. for the most part they’re still on a journey to figure out who Jesus is. one of the hallmarks of our weekly roadtrip, since its about about 20 minute commute to the outpost, is their plugging in their ipods and listening through a dozen or so songs from artists like lil’ wayne and justin beiber. one song that totally captures them is the song grenade by bruno mars. its a lot of fun to hear them all singing their best voices to this contemporary songs. i’m thinking this rendition by the guys at Kennsington…puts its meaning in a whole new light. amazing.
