creative chaos

zach and i made a dumb video to promote a college-age cookout i’m hosting this weekend. it’s called the “school’s out for summer” cookout. totally stole the idea from my friends over at fusion church. very funny people. if you live in the northeast suburbs of atl, you should def check […]

creative chaos

we’re putting on a couple of big cookouts for the age groups that i lead. i wanted something a little better than sending out an e-vite, so zach and i recorded some stupid videos to tell people about them. here’s the one we made for the 20-something group. their cookout is on […]

just a few quick hits tonight before i call it a night.
