Finally, I have got my family away for a few days holiday. We are close to the beach at a friends bach (shack) which happens to be much bigger than our yurt and quite nice. We haven't got away all year, not even for a weekend, which is crazy because summer came and went here but we didn't have a car and couldn't really get away. But now we have wheels (thanks to a donation of a 99 honda) and a place to go (thanks Wendy), and so we are fishing and watching movies and cooking up our favorite foods.
This weekend I will fly to Australia to talk to Baptists and others in the Shellharbour area.
But until then I will be in holiday mode and not blogging.
I am reposing [opps - supposed to say "reposting" but i guess 'reposing' is also appropriate] this video below because I just put it together this month, and because it shows where we are living and the kind of vibe that happens here when festivals happen. And because hardly anyone actually watched my movie which was really disappointing.
So please, make my day and watch my movie.

Original Post:
So PassionFest blew us away again this year and it was so good to be here. Its a festival for justice-minded Christians hosted at the Ngatiawa contemporary monastery here in New Zealand. I managed to put a short video together to give you a taste of the festival. Our kids appear constantly and my wife Debbie is teaching spinning and asking young people what they think PassionFest is all about. Hope you like it.
