Preaching from a Treadmill

8Jul2008 Filed under: church, creativity, video Author: alex

I just got this video of me teaching a few months ago.

That was a bunch of fun - the whole idea I was trying to illustrate was that sometimes a christians we just have to step out in faith and begin living, and as we do we begin to learn what God has in store for us. All it takes is for us to begin walking and then we automatically start to grow. I did it for four services and didn’t fall once - yay!

See, I think you should have those brought in for staff meetings... instead of sitting there for three hours, multi-task!

I love it. That's a visual that'll make 'em remember the sermon on Wednesday when they hit the gym.

About this blog

My name is Alex McLean and I am currently the executive pastor at LifeChurch in the Temecula Valley of Southern California. I have been a youth pastor and worship leader, as well as a media / communications pastor so I am into all kinds of things creative.

At the core, I am just a guy who is trying to live in community, and live life - not let it happen. I try and stay real and teachable, humble if I can say that. That is really one of the reasons I blog, is to share my experiences in life and learn from others.

God has blessed me with more than I deserve and I am so thankful for that. A beautiful wife and two incredible children. More friends and family than you can shake a stick at and just an amazing life that I am allowed to enjoy and or struggle with every day.
