Introduction

Video/audio transcript

0:00 - hey guys so right now i’m going to be
0:02 - making the introductory video here for
0:04 - ministry progress summaries and so this
0:07 - is going to be the playlist here on the
0:09 - ministry channel where i go over the
0:11 - updates week by week i guess maybe not
0:14 - every week maybe every couple weeks here
0:15 - but the consistent regular updates about
0:18 - the progress and the things that are
0:20 - going on in this ministry so we’re going
0:22 - to go through several slides here this
0:23 - intro video will be pretty short and
0:25 - then the updates as we go here kind of
0:28 - over the weeks as we make progress
0:30 - you’ll get a sense for
0:31 - the
0:33 - direction in which things are kind of
0:34 - being taken on the website and also what
0:37 - content you might not have seen yet and
0:39 - so with that i’ll go ahead and hit the
0:42 - slideshow presentation here and we’ll go
0:44 - ahead and take a look at exactly what
0:47 - these
0:48 - ministry progress summary videos are
0:49 - supposed to be about
0:51 - all right so here’s our slide
0:53 - presentation here and this is just going
0:55 - to be a couple slides going over again
0:57 - the purpose here and what exactly these
1:00 - are for so first we’re going to talk
1:02 - exactly about what these ministry
1:03 - progress summary videos are and then i’m
1:05 - just going to spend a little bit of time
1:07 - talking about how they’re different than
1:08 - the daily progress summary videos that i
1:10 - have up on a different youtube channel
1:13 - so these videos here at a high level are
1:15 - supposed to kind of be a whirlwind
1:16 - overview of all of the recent ministry
1:19 - progress and news and i’m going to be
1:21 - sending these out probably once every
1:23 - couple weeks that’s going to be about
1:24 - the frequency for these videos here
1:27 - and these are kind of made the target
1:29 - audience here is for everyone who wants
1:31 - to keep an eye on what’s new with the
1:33 - ministry so
1:34 - um
1:35 - anyone you know friends family people
1:37 - who have subscribed to the youtube
1:38 - channel people who are following the
1:40 - ministry in general
1:42 - as to the content of these videos it’s
1:44 - mostly going to be the highlights from
1:46 - the given time window like i said about
1:48 - every two weeks here
1:50 - so all of the new content that’s there
1:52 - maybe several prayer requests that
1:54 - things are really important or just kind
1:56 - of the news going on in the ministry
1:58 - within this time period
2:00 - and then after i go through kind of what
2:03 - actually got done within the time period
2:04 - i’ll spend a little bit of time going
2:06 - over what my goals for the next time are
2:08 - although not with too too much
2:10 - specificity just because sometimes
2:12 - things change and i might change courses
2:14 - so i’m not completely locked in but i do
2:17 - generally try to give an idea here of
2:19 - what the next things i’m going to focus
2:21 - on will be
2:22 - so conciseness isn’t exactly a strength
2:24 - of mine but i am going to take pains to
2:26 - try to keep these videos pretty short
2:28 - overall just so that way people will be
2:30 - able to
2:32 - learn all about the new things going on
2:35 - with the ministry without having to
2:36 - spend too much time to do so
2:38 - so that’s basically the overall
2:41 - picture here of what these ministry
2:44 - progress summary videos are about and so
2:46 - the other thing that we’re going to go
2:47 - over here in this video is just going to
2:48 - be a little note about what makes these
2:50 - things different from the daily progress
2:52 - summary videos so i have another youtube
2:54 - channel here and i’ll go ahead and click
2:56 - this link and this youtube channel it’s
2:59 - a separate one you know that way people
3:01 - who subscribe won’t get spammed with
3:03 - videos from this other channel and so
3:06 - this channel has a kind of day-by-day
3:08 - breakdowns of all of the work that i get
3:10 - done
3:11 - and so i started this channel a while
3:13 - back and
3:14 - you know it has you know day by day so
3:17 - over the weeks and months just a
3:19 - breakdown of all of the tasks that i get
3:21 - done in a given time period now not all
3:24 - of the tasks that are show up here are
3:26 - ministry related because i do have a
3:29 - couple other websites and you know some
3:31 - of my work
3:33 - relating to those things will show up in
3:35 - those videos as well
3:37 - but that is more the nitty gritty day by
3:40 - day account of all of the things that i
3:42 - get done whereas these ministry progress
3:44 - summary videos are intended to be just a
3:46 - higher overview of the ministry progress
3:49 - that’s being made
3:50 - so these videos in the other playlist
3:52 - are honestly just as much for me as for
3:54 - anyone else so that i can find things
3:56 - over time if i ever need to reference
3:57 - something i’ve done or thought on and so
3:59 - that i can keep myself really organized
4:01 - day by day
4:02 - trying to keep in mind all of the
4:04 - spiritual pressure that should drive me
4:05 - so we have
4:06 - all of these things that we can keep in
4:08 - mind to
4:10 - help light a fire beneath us as
4:11 - christians you know uh the service that
4:14 - we are called to as members of the body
4:16 - of christ and the ministries that we
4:18 - have all individually been assigned and
4:20 - things like that i just try to
4:22 - keep myself on task day by day so that i
4:24 - can keep in mind all the things that we
4:26 - should be about all right so why am i
4:29 - even bringing this other video series up
4:31 - here and so uh one reason is because
4:34 - anyone who’s interested in some of the
4:36 - work that goes into creating some of the
4:39 - ministry content here so the videos and
4:41 - the website and things like that well if
4:43 - you ever want to peer behind the curtain
4:45 - a bit uh this other series that i’m
4:47 - mentioning here would kind of be the
4:48 - place to do so because i talk about some
4:50 - of the work that
4:51 - i’ve done in these areas to make
4:53 - everything work and kind of
4:56 - all of the things that are involved in
4:57 - making it all go round you can get a
5:00 - feel for
5:01 - more of the technical nitty gritty
5:03 - details in terms of how i implement
5:05 - things in some of those videos there
5:08 - and then
5:09 - just because i do go over other things
5:11 - so things relating to my interests and
5:13 - the other websites i have if you want to
5:15 - get to know me as an individual better
5:17 - so you want to put a person and a face
5:19 - to the materials offered here so to
5:21 - speak well those videos would also be
5:23 - good for that
5:24 - but since this is ultimately the intro
5:27 - video for the ministry progress videos i
5:29 - am just bringing these up as a point of
5:31 - contrast so these videos here in this
5:33 - series will be entirely about the things
5:36 - related to the progress made on the
5:38 - ministry front but if you either want to
5:40 - see about how things are made or you
5:42 - want to get to know me a little bit
5:43 - better as an individual
5:45 - you can go ahead and check out the other
5:47 - playlist linked here in the slides
5:49 - and well that’s going to be it here for
5:51 - today so this video very short just
5:53 - giving a little bit of a high level
5:54 - overview as to what these ministry
5:56 - progress summary videos are so if you
5:58 - stay tuned the other videos in this
6:00 - series will be giving that account
6:02 - period by period of all of the progress
6:05 - and all of the new things that are going
6:06 - on in this ministry
