Hi Guys.
First off, we want to say that our thoughts and prayers are with everyone in Texas and the Gulf tonight. It's difficult to announce "exciting news" when we know this night will be a difficult one for a lot of people. Perhaps the only transition that makes any sense is to say that TWLOHA and this MySpace page exist because we know that life is hard and a lot of people feel alone and a lot of people feel stuck. In the face of that, it's a privilege to continue to say that people need other people, that community is essential and that hope and help are real.
The exciting news is this:
A couple months back, while we were on the "Up in Arms" tour with Switchfoot, a crew from NBC came and spent two days with our team in Florida. Day One was at our office in Cocoa and Day Two was at the Switchfoot show in Jacksonville. Our time with NBC was honestly great - the producer told us this story reminded her why she got into journalism - to tell stories she believed in. When it was over, she told us that she considers us friends. It was a pleasant surprise to say the least.
We're told that nine million people watch NBC Nightly News w/ Brian Williams so we're obviously excited... Much of the work we do involves talking about things that tend to stay silent. We want people to know that they were never meant to do life alone, and we want them to know the hope and help that exist in the face of these issues. So we're excited for a whole bunch of folks to be invited into this conversation tonight...
Here is a
LINK to see when NBC Nightly News w/ Brian Williams is on in your neck of the woods. It's on at 6:30pm throughout most of the USA.
In case you can't watch it live, or you missed it, you can watch the story online

Peace to you.
