There are quite a few people in the video. Who are they?
They are all friends of mine and people I know who go to my church, Solid Rock Church in Portland, Oregon. The best thing about [the video] is it’s all just friends. Even though it looks like complete strangers, I know everyone. The guy with the beard is a homeless guy we know. There are a lot of awesome people in the video. They are all just friends of mine. I’m not dating any of the girls. Everyone always asks that.
