Work I’ve done lately.

Here’s a couple of videos we’ve used in service lately that I’ve shot and edited (with help from my awesome coworkers of course). One Verse Cafe from Kevin Dooley on Vimeo. How Not to Prayer Walk from Kevin Dooley on Vimeo.

How to get shot in the face…

Alternately – “How to ruin your senior year of high school.” So this past week someone rang my mom’s doorbell rather agressively at around 12:30 am or so… My mom looks out her peephole, and seeing no one calls the police to report the incident. The police ask if she saw anyone and if they [...]

Isn’t service sacrifice?

So today I am at one of our campuses and I just overheard a couple of members who are here early because they are serving. They were talking about our upcoming service projects that we’re doing to celebrate our church’s 30th anniversary. One of them said, “I can’t take off work for all the stuff [...]

My First AR

So I built a rifle recently.  That’s right, I BUILT a rifle.  It’s an M4 styled AR-15.  Here it is: For those that are spec driven, here’s the details.  I used a stripped Essential Arms lower from a little company in Louisiana.  It’s not the prettiest receiver (there’s no prancing horse or coiled snake or [...]

Children of Men and Easter

So Friday I watched a movie that (since its release) has been on my list of all-time greatest movies, Children of Men. As I watched the end I was struck by how clearly it can show the gospel. In a literal warzone, where the absolute worst of humanity comes out a single baby calms the [...]

8 years of Marriage

This week (Tuesday the 31st – but only because Ann wouldn’t agree to the best April Fool’s day prank ever) Ann and I celebrated 8 years of marriage. The good news was we realized that this year we could actually celebrate being happily married for more than half the time we’ve been married. I thank [...]

Concerts, Concerts, and more Concerts!

So this month I will get to see both Black Label Society and Cake, both in small venues, and then today I bought tickets to see Metallica as they come to town for their Death Magnetic tour… Just thought I’d share what concerts I plan on seeing this year…

Animated Economic Downfall

Well it’s simple enough to say that the economy tanked because people gave money to people that had no business borrowing money and then everyone leveraged everyone else so they could buy tons of these ill advised loans and then (whodathunkit) those ill advised loans turned into defaulted loans and now no one can pay [...]

Not a witnessing tool…

So I had an interesting conversation with my favorite barista/owner at my locally owned coffee shop… (NOT STARBUCKS). He told me that someone came in this week and told him that they knew, beyond the shadow of a doubt, that the Cardinals would win the Superbowl today because Kurt Warner is a believer and God [...]

For the Geeks…

Okay, those of you without geekiness somewhere in you either won’t understand this, or just won’t find it amusing… So, I’ve been trying to set up my work computer to allow me to access it remotely… not just files on it, but if I wanted to log in to it to see if an encode [...]

The Journey So Far…

Good Riddance

This weekend is the last weekend that George Walker Bush, 43rd President of the United States is president.  Next week President-Elect Barack Obama will be sworn in.  Now, I have no idea what the next 4-8 years will bring us with Obama, but I can say this – we’ve got to be better off without [...]
