our broken toilet, jet lag with three little children, and the holy land of course. it's all very excellent, enjoy.

we haven't done much in the way of preparing for israel, to be honest there wasn't a ton we had to do. we moved scott out of his apartment, packed up our gear, and are basically waiting to go at this point. the second half of the video entry is pretty much stupid, it's just a few things we did while waiting to leave. we did see a moose on our dune buggy ride however, that was dang sweet!

hold nothing back is a musical expression of what it sounds like to me to give it all. it's basically saying, don't commit, don't love, don't devote yourself halfway to the one worthy of it all.

MAY 8, 2007

thus far i've been in utah for just over a week.

i work with four guys from ages 40 to 70, and none of them act their age, much less mine. i love these guys so much, and i am excited that this is the place i am needed right now. today we did extensive testing with the cameras and other technical thing-ee-madoosits. i can barely believe that all that's expected of me here is to shoot, edit and research geek stuff. what a blessing!

this documentary was shot over a period of eight days in Managua Nicaragua. i went down with a team of 16 members from my home church to tend to the needs of many of the hurting people in the small villages outlining Managua. we separated into four groups in which we shared the gospel, worked construction of many of the homes, ran a medical clinic, and gave out 250 Christmas gifts to the local children. the documentary in and of itself serves the purpose of showing you everything that went on during those eight days just as we saw it. i hope that it helps you to understand how much the resources that we have are needed in a place where people are lacking so much.

Get ready for some amazing new Rock music brought to you by Nathan William Lundquist! It's so super, it might even be called... catchier than your face.

It just might.

I know it's not anywhere near Christmas, but here's a beautiful new Christmas song by Nathan William Lundquist! Why now? Because it should be Christmas in our hearts all the time.

And also because Nate submitted the song in April...

for starters, i don't capitalize the letters in my sentences. secondly, hello!

my name is nathan lundquist and i've recently been officially inducted to the mmn community. i'd first like to thank malex personally for such a prestigious honor (nate offers malex a plaque along with a handshake and they pose for several photographs before stepping off stage).

the video you see posted here is obviously entitled "this happened to a man." the reason is because this happened to a man. what happened to a man you might ask? well, watch the video. or you can just read on as i explain:
