and when a flood occurred

I've linked to the video below before and wrote about what I love so much about it. But it's been awhile since I've seen it, and watching it today, still the same reaction as before. A quick search on Godtube and YouTube shows that the video has been watched about 16 million times. That doesn't even count the nearly 3,000 other versions of this that you get when you search "lifehouse skit" on either site. Even conservative estimates of 1,000 views of the other 3,000 versions puts the number of people having seen some form of the skit at 20,000,000, with reality probably far higher.

There is a growing conversation going on about the intersection between faith and culture. You can visit this site run by a friend for one perspective. Here's another perspective brought to you by the former founder of Evangelical Outpost. I know many believers think we should run from the world and stay as far away as possible. The success of the video below shows that maybe that isn't the right approach at all. Maybe the right approach is overwhelming the culture with the gospel as many millions of ways as we can.
