Friends with Videos
No… not *those* kinds of friends with videos… (nudge, nudge, 😉 😉 ) Actually, we’re referring to friends who like playing our music enough to post videos to the Internet. It’s exciting when this happens, because it means that someone else is ministering to their church family, or learning new skills, or just plain having …
