Lame Or Legendary... Your Choice!

Okay, so I discovered a someone new yesturday, thank you Susan, by the name of Josh Shipp. Here is the bio from his blog site:

"Josh Shipp is dedicated to one thing: entertaining, inspiring, and empowering teens. He’s written books, shared the stage with Bill Cosby, appeared on MTV’s TRL, Comedy Central, NBC, FOX, TLC, and in the LA TIMES . And he’s already established an international reputation as an inspiring youth speaker with a simple and entertaining, yet challenging message.

Abandoned and abused as a child, Josh was able to triumph over the tragedy, and he continues to encourage everyone to overcome struggles and live life to the fullest. And he does so through the power of laughter. Josh is animated and hilarious, and his speaking style is challenging and thought-provoking. Josh has spoken to more than one million people about how his opportunities in life have made him who he is today. For over eight years, he has inspired, empowered, and entertained audiences all over the world. Josh’s ability to connect with the audience is a rare gift and is one you don’t want to miss.

Hey Josh is a website that provides advice, entertainment and community to teens through the web, films, live events and published books. Based on the old-school principles of Dear Abby, Hey Josh provides digital advice to a digital generation that is “in your face, but on your side”.

Josh is a spokesperson for National Foster Care Month, a marathon runner and a guitar hero."

Awesome guy if you ask me. Check out this video he put together, it's called Factory.

If only everyone thought like Josh. I think I am going to see if Jason, our Youth Pastor, will let me present this video to the Junior High and High School Kids. I think this is something they need to hear. I only with I would have heard this at a younger age. I feel that more kids need to here this a lot more often. Enjoy.
