Check out Kristin McGee, the musical worship leader at Epic Church.  She wrote a short story for a tshirt contest and she won!  They invited her to help create a video about her story and this is it.

Jedidiah is an amazing company that I have personally invested my money into to help see their vision become a reality.  I hope you enjoy the video and will check out:  http://www.jedidiahusa.com

We at Epic Church are very proud of Kristin and her acomplishments.  We are thrilled to have her lead the musical worship time at the weekend Epic Gathering.  She is a hard worker who loves Jesus and those around her.  We are excited for this acomplishment and continue to look for great things to come.  Feel free to send her a word of encouragement at:  kristin(AT)epicchurchonline.org

I am super, super, super stoked that Starbucks Coffee Company is partnering with (Red) and giving a portion of every holiday drink sold to the Global Fund with a vision to “Make Poverty History”.  Buy Starbucks holiday drinks with confidence that they are giving back.

Because I am a partner at Starbucks I am excited this is happening but also because I am a Follower of Jesus, I am excited to see this happen.  Jesus Followers care about the “least of these” and we (together) can make a difference.  As excited I am for a huge mega company, Starbucks, to be partnering to help make our world a better place; I can’t help but to think if the Church, which is, Followers of Jesus would just be doing what that are “supposed” to be doing… would we even need something like (RED) or ONE or the Global Fund?

What part does Epic Church need to play in making our community, city and world a better place?

On my trip to Ohio I snagged one of my favorite magazines, Wired.  There is always a plethora of information in each issue regarding our culture in relation to technology.
The theme of one article is that the blog is so 1994, and we are in 2008… HELLO!
Twitter.
Facebook.
Ning.
These are taking over.  They may be taking over but as I was sitting in the airport, I started asking the people around me, “What do you know about Twitter?”
Now for those of you who know me really well can actually picture me talking to complete strangers sitting trapped waiting for their flight.  Funny picture huh?
Besides the one women that thought I was trying to get fresh with her…. No one had a clue what Twitter was.
Either I am on the cutting edge of technology as a clergyman, aka wide whale cords, or I am totally stupid.
So, keep reading my blog here or better yet join Twitter and add me: jake_rasmussen and epicchurch
