A Family Man
I love this video. It is a remarkable blend of musical, lyrical and visual arts working together as the artists reflect on the bittersweet (but mostly sweet!) transition from single to family life from a Christian perspective.

That was beautiful.
We watched it together, and it made me cry! Beautifully put together, – we both loved it. Thank you for making me cry!!
I am glad you both enjoyed it. I have watched it a number of times now, and I just don’t get tired of it.
This is lovely. I am actually looking for a song about family, but this wasn’t quite what I need. We are having someone scan a number of our photographs, starting with our wedding, then through the years of the kids growing up. She will put them on a DVD and we can choose a song to go with the pix. Since we didn’t have a camcorder during the kids’ growing-up years, this will be our equivalent of a home movie. Any ideas on good songs for this anyone?
Bethany – What a neat project! My first thought was Amy Grant’s “If These Walls Could Speak,” although it may be too melancholy for what you’re doing. Here’s a link anyways, and I will keep thinking: Amy Grant: If These Walls Could Speak
P.S. Shawn Colvin also does a cover of this if you like the song but wanted a little more upbeat version. Here’s a link to listen: Shawn Colvin: If These Walls Could Speak
