Zoolander Pose


Not quite.... I just got some new headshots done. This whole acting thing is a lot slower paced when you're not in school. I've revamped the website to make it obvious what I'm doing now, looking for acting gigs. Even church (http://www.mosaic.org) is slow right now for recruiting people onto the drama team.

I wonder how long it takes to get to the point where I can make absurd films like Zoolander and Starsky & Hutch with the same band of acting buddies over and over, having a blast, and making enough bank to fund whatever projects I want.

Speaking of projects, I've decided I'm going to try to save the world again... that's going to be my day job. Imagine SimCity for third world countries. Instead of building skyscrapers you're picking the smartest irrigation pumps, the best microcredit program, the best solar-powered refrigerators to install in your village. You watch your village flourish as you navigate all the demands of third world politics and economics. "SimVillage" except I can't call it that because it's already taken. Then imagine waking up one day and finding out somebody decided to bankroll your village and build it for real. The village you built in the game was so well done, your church decided to make it happen in real life partnering with World Hope, Google.org, and Ashoka to manage implementation. I'd definitely play the game. Hopefully a few million other people will too. =)

Brazil is Cool and I want in on the Action

Many have asked and many times I have explained Why Brazil? I am going to Brazil because something is going on down there, and I want in on it. Spiritually there is a huge revival going on down there. Small groups explode into megachurches. People receive prophecy and obey to go on and do great things for God. And more missionaries hail from Brazil than any other country in the world. Here's a few stories that inspired me: One prayer team from Brazil instigated a revival in Goa, India. Stephen Baldwin becomes a Christian because a Brazilian nanny obeyed prophecy. A Brazilian Missionary defies 'The Prince of Peru' to instigate revival in Peru. I believe that when I get down there I'll find mentors to take me into more powerful prayer, into more effective evangelism, and more mission-oriented churches. Essentially my hope for Brazil is that I can find a community who will help me take my faith from applying the wisdom of the Bible to something more personal ......
