Almost broke my hip.

So Team Whittaker would love your prayers as we pick up and move the family to Chicago.
I’ll keep this brief…
God has blessed us with an amazing community of friends here in Atlanta.
Some of us have decided that we want to be part of a movement committed to daily living out the Transformational Love of Jesus in the City so that we can change the World.
And the way we plan to do this is in a community called Soul City Church…in downtown Chicago.
Team Whittaker is moving with a few other amazing families to downtown Chicago to live, breathe, commune, fellowship, and take part in doing church 7 days a week in the city and I can’t wait.
I’ll post more tomorrow but I just wanted you guys to know the goods.
Love you guys!!!

Oh. And welcome to the new blog. 
1. This is the tormented ragamuffin soul in the midst of a heavenly place.
I feel like that is who I am. Tormented but in peace.
2. The major reasons why I get invited to lead worship places is not becasue of my vocal runs. It is because I quickly build trust in a room of people and they trust me to take them on a journey towards The Throne. And when I do it…I laugh and have fun. I’m the happy hype worship dude.
3. Saul’s Conversion tat in the forground with me blurred in the background writing.
Um. That’s it.
So…What speaks to you and why?
What doesn’t speak to you and why?
Rip them apart and build them up.
Remember…I’m an artist.
So give me a compliment sandwich…
You have till tomorrow afternoon so retweet and ask your friends and grandmothers…
Remember…EP…Not full length album
ready…set…talk…

A month or so ago I got to have dinner with Scott Belsky, CEO of Behance and ideator behind The 99% Conference.
It was accidental, unbelievable, and future shifting.
It once again brought me to the realization that most of the time, this small little church bubble we live in is exactly that. Sooooo small.
If you could have dinner with a NON CHURCH LEADER…
Who would it be?

Starbucks. Johnson Ferry Rd. and Paper Mill Rd. 1:30 pm. South Entrance. Patio Table By Main Entrance. Heather and I working on bills and such…
Me – What?
H – Nothing.
Me – What?
H – I saw you look at her butt.
Me – No you didn’t.
H – Yes I did.
Me – No you didn’t…because I didn’t. You can’t even see my eyes when I turn that way.
H – Yes I can. I can see your pupils.
I turn my head to demonstrate…I can see her out of my peripheral vision…Suck…
Me – Well I wasn’t intentionally looking at her butt.
H – So you did look at her butt.
Dude walks out of door and I look at him…
Me – See. I looked at his butt too. It’s just eye level as people walk out.
H – Well that’s even worse. I’d rather you look at her butt. Now I’m twice as worried.
Sometimes you should just say, yup.

So you know about a year ago I endeavored into a new love…
Photography.
Not my own…but others.
I have fallen in love with the shots of old friends like Leah Vis, Daley Hake, Trevor Hoehne, and new friends like Jasmine Star, Promise Tangeman, and Jeremy Cowart.
Jeremy is a part of something really spectacular I wanted to tell you about…
It is called Help-Portrait and the skinny is this…
It’s a movement of photographers, coming together in every major city, to use their photography skills to give back to the community. On December 12th, photographers around the world will be grabbing their cameras, finding people in need, and taking their picture. When the prints are ready, the photographs get delivered.
Yep.
It really is that easy.
So. Do you take pictures? Would you think about giving a gift of a picture to someone who might not ever have one of his or her family?
You don’t need to be a rock star photographer. Just someone with a heart to give…hope.
Jeremy hit me up to share this with you guys and at first, honestly, I had no clue how this could “help somebody”.
Until I watched this…
I am going to be a part of this…
Will you?
Give someone back their dignity on 12.12.09…

In the midst of the chaos that was yesterday, we managed to get the house clean.
Watch the pure glee at the end of the video that is in Seanna’s face when she realizes that her mommy will be home soon.
I love being a dad.

My wife is in El Salvador right now.
She has been blogging about the AMAZING things that Compassion International is doing over there.
YOU MUST go catch up on everything that she is doing.
When you do…catch the vision…sponsor a child…and change a life.
Do you sponsor a child…Tell us your story.
