I think I’ve settled on a church. It’s different, very different, than any kind of church I’ve been to. Today at work, I ate lunch with a woman who used to go there because she lived downtown before moving up to Addison. She mentioned that the singer, Nicole Nordeman, went to Reunion. So, I looked up her bio to see if she wrote anything about it. What she did write, I think describes Reunion very well…
So, she looked to her home church for inspiration that would become the song’s video. “The church I was attending, in the inner-city of Dallas, was such a wonderfully diverse gathering of people who were full of stories about how God was helping them connect the dots and make a difference in others lives,” she says. “There was an adoptive family that had just rescued this sweet boy from poverty in a third world country, and a single mother of four who was a breast cancer survivor, a recovering drug addict and an ex-convict involved in prison ministry. These are everyday life stories, but here they were with me in church every Sunday. So, shooting that video was such an incredible opportunity to step out of the spotlight and just say ‘This is what it looks like to leave a legacy.
