Intimacy or Va Va Voom!
The worship value of intimacy was one I really appreciated in this season of my life. It seems to be one of the more busy seasons I have had in recent years (and not just because of Advent and Christmas preparation). As a result, I've dropped the ball a bit with seeking to continue to foster the value of intimacy with the One who pursues after me all the time. I wanted to try to continue to step "outside the box" in terms of my comfort zone in doing these creative projects. This time, I did a brief skit portraying my wife and I playing, of all things, my wife and I. There really is no deep theological purpose behind this other than to just showcase a type of intimacy with a little bit of a twist (and hopefully a humorous one at that!). The real purpose of this skit on video, at least in my mind, is to open up a series on intimacy, whether between God and us, or between us and others of significance in our lives. To quote Dan Wilt: "Intimacy happens when one heart chooses to make itself vulnerable to another, choosing self- offering above self-protection; self-disclosure above self-protection." It is more than just being friends; it is a deep bonding. Hope you enjoy this "deep bonding" of a video! Forgot to mention that the cartoony look is intentional as this is a silly send-up of intimacy.....
