5 Days Till "One Life"!
If you're ready for a new holiday tradition, I hope you'll watch "One Life: The Movie," premiering FRIDAY NIGHT on YouTube!
"It's the new Nutcracker!" says my friend Al Lowry, and he's not far off. In fact, the original Nutcracker ballet premiered on the same date - December 18th - way back in 1892.
Since so many theaters around the world aren't able to perform the Nutcracker this year, I think it's a perfect time to start a new holiday tradition. I hope you'll gather your family and watch "One Life" together.
It's the rarely-told story of the real-life St. Nicholas, the forerunner of our modern-day Santa Claus, set to beautiful music, colorful staging, and wonderful dancing.
If you love Jesus, love Christmas, and love a good story, you'll find all three in this new Christmas story ballet. It's our gift to you this Christmas - from all 173 of us who put it together! - and it's all free for you on YouTube!
Here's a sneak peak from one of the spectacular numbers in the middle of the show, when Nicholas imagines the angels announcing the birth of Jesus, complete with music from the Hallelujah Chorus.
And if you'd like to help me present this gift to the world, I could still use your help!
GoFundMe sent me a note yesterday saying that I'm HALF-WAY toward my goal to cover the production costs for the movie. They said I "just need 78 people people to donate $153" AND THE SHOW WOULD BE COMPLETELY FUNDED! I would love this.
Who knows, maybe 128 years from now people will still be talking about "One Life" the way we talk about the Nutcracker today. (Lord, let it be, for there are still so many people who need to put their faith in You. In Jesus' name, Amen.)
Here's the link to donate if you'd like to be one of those 78 giving $153, or any amount! Thank you!

P.S. And in case you missed my behind-the-scenes answer to a question about finding faith to step out in faith, here's my 5-minute video. I pray it encourages you that God can use YOUR steps of faith for Him, too!
