Sunday Morning Time Lapse
So Los inspired me to give this a shot. Using the program he suggested, I did a time-lapse video of a Sunday morning in my life @ Cross Point. Hope you enjoy!

You need one of the voice-lead texting phones (and a bluetooth or headset or something!)

Pete, you’re right. You are addicted. lol Have a nice vacation. That’s really cool. Tom was worried about keeping up, now he’s there. Time lapse is the answer. I wonder if i could get my work week done that way?

I just had arrived home from the eye doctors office before I clicked on this video. He had dilated my eyes. I can’t even begin to explain to you how crazy this thing looks with dilated pupils.

Whew! That was tiring! I like how your picture on the right looks like you’re just chillin’ and watching the video too.
I don’t remember how I found your blog???, but I am a daily stalker.

Ever consider a career in broadcast news, Pastor Pete?! If this video is any indication, you’d be brilliant I tell ya.

Whew Pete–I’m worn out from that…. if that’s a typical Sunday–you deserve 3 naps.
Does CrossPoint meet in a typical church building? I was surprised to see the pews. Just wondering.. Peace!

@Jim Drake We are actually in an old Baptist church that we have a five year lease in for our Nashville campus. Our Dickson campus meets in a high school.

171 hugs in one morning? Wow! That rocks!
Neat video! I would definitely need a nap after a morning like that!

Wow!
Very cool.
On your run through do you go through your entire message?
I am impressed because there are a lot of pastors with larger churches these days that hang out in a green room and avoid the people in the halls…you are engaging people and doing 2? 3? services…2 plus a run through?
I bet you are exhausted on Sunday night/Monday morning.
Great work on the video by the way

i was going to say something about the cell phone usage in your car… but I am going to skip over that to say that is the coolest video I have seen in a long time!

@ncarnes We have 3 Sunday services @ 9, 11, & 6. I don’ go through the entire message in the run through. I just hit the scripture and main points to make sure I’m on the same page as the media guys.
I can’t tell you how much I enjoy greeting people before and after each of the services. It’s actually the highlight of my day!

So, I have been gone the past week so I thought I would quickly comment on two post at once..both this one and and annes….
Image is everything in todays world, and women constantly have to fight not only their own perception of themselves, but also everyone elses. A women might have shot this video, but she would not have posted a days worth of “is my butt really that big?” or better yet “is HER butt really that big?”
Simply put, most women would hit delete.
I really hate that.

Love the time lapse! I don’t think some people realize the focus and time that go into Sunday AM sometimes. It is great to see how intense it is.
Also, I live that you video taped yourself prepping. Our creative director, whenever he teaches, goes down to the worship center and goes through his whole sermon as if he was teaching it. It’s the only way he is comfortable in being prepared.
Hope vacation is awesome! thanks for stopping by the video chat tonight!

Pete,
Hope you and your family are having an awesome vacation. I wish I could come to one of your services.(Live in Cali) You are very inspiring… Not sure the video really shows all the LOVE you’re sharing. Cool effect, though…. Jen

i am going to guess that it feels like you were really going that fast, once you get to the end of the day!!!
i am disappointed to see a lack of St. Arbucks drive thru or barista!?!

I guess us normal PC users cannot create cool videos like this since the software requires a MAC. Oh, well maybe I can do a time delayed auto slide advance PowerPoint show (sounds cool huh?)…I can even do random slide transitions with that

Holy crap that’s a lot of hugs and handshakes!! I really respect pastors, they have so many people to please, it’s gotta be a hard job! I was thinking you must have found it hard to just remember to move the camera around. You seem so busy without that extra thought.

Shut up.. that is the coolest thing ever. I’ve watched Los and his videos.. but its pretty cool to see what a Sunday looks at your church. I think my favorite part was watching your Sound guy back in his booth. very very cool

Its been awhile since I heard some Crystal Method, good choice in music! You should play this to all new members, then maybe all this talk of pastors not doing anything will end!

How cool. I loved all the cell phone calls in the car. But where’s the nap? I was so waiting for the famous nap!!!! I thought for SURE the vid would fade over you sawing logs. C’mon man! On the basis of thee hugs and handshakes alone you are officially re-awarded your man card. ;>) Keep up the great work, Pastor Pete.

My favorite part is that out of the whole day your sermon was literally about 2 seconds long. Perfect. I can’t stand long-winded preachers. JUST KIDDING!!! And I think my kids would love your “colorful lights” church service.
I was also thinking that, for this ADD brain, that the video is almost exactly how I feel most days!
Man that was so totally cool!
And really – do you wear flip flops on stage?? That’d be kinda funny.
