Food for Thought

I'm not posting a video this week. I could tell you one of several reasons/excuses, but all you need to know is that there won't be a video this week. Instead, enjoy the week and take some time to reflect on how blessed we are as Americans as we carry on the spirit of July 4th.

God be with you!

Faith Alive Interview Series Part 6

If anyone checked out my YouTube page in the past week may have already seen this. But if not, I hope you enjoy it! To answer my mom's question, all of these videos were filmed in Jos, Nigeria. The interesting thing in the interviews with Dr. Chris is the fact that every once in a while you can hear what sounds like a crowd cheering in the background. Admittedly, it's very faint and I can pick it out easier cause I was there for the original recording but it's there in a couple of shots. The cheering is just that, cheers. We were filming during a soccer game between Nigeria and Ghana during the Africa Cup tournament. The game wasn't nearby, but nearly every Nigerian with access to a television was glued to it that night. The security staff at Faith Alive was gathered out by the entrance to the clinic watching, so when Nigeria made a good play, we heard it inside. Another interesting note is the fact that the electricity was on that night. It was generally out by that hour or spotty at best. Apparently an electrical company's office or a sub-station was burned to the ground the last time a Nigerian soccer match was interrupted when the power went out, so it's something of a priority for them to keep the power going during games. But doesn't it seem funny that they can keep it running when they want to? You would think that it could actually be on all the time given their performance for the soccer matches. Oh well, that's Nigeria for you.

God be with you all!

Sick again

I came down with a fever and a cough last night and ended up staying home from work. I suppose I could have worked on my next interview portion, but lying on the couch felt better. So who knows when I'll get a new interview up. Sorry.
