double popped – @pwilson
Posted by rick in double popped on 02 18th, 2009 | 45 responses
I had the awesome chance to “double pop” Pete Wilson, Pastor of Cross Point Church. What a great guy! He is just as cool, and humble, in person as he comes across in his sermons, blog, and twitter. Check out the video to hear his thoughts on some key questions!
{as always – if you would like to be on the next “double popped,” have any feedback, or want to just say “hi” – please leave a comment in the comment section!}
Rick I love double popped genius name and concept!!!!!
Wow. Thanks so much! I hope to show everyone that people are so much “cooler then their avatars!” I've got some other really great ones coming. Thanks for watching!
@pwilson is the !@#$ ….
hands down, i agree!
word.
great pick in @pwilson Rick! I've followed his blog for a few months now, great guy, huge integrity…love it.
Thanks for watching! He really is a great guy! I'll have more double popped soon!
WOW, so Rick said that if you follow Pete on twitter he will follow you and call you at home….hhhmmm!
Everyone follow Pete and get him to call you at home!
Ha,ha. Now I never said he would call YOU at home… I said he called ME!
p.s. – your user name is sort of creepy!
I've met Pete through blogging and twittering and finally in person. He's the real deal! Authentic through and through.
indeed! Just a super great guy! Thanks for watching the video!
but does he believe in the Trinity? ….running for my life
Indeed he does….
Great guy! Loves people. Loves the Lord! 100% Legit!
Pete's "Without Wax" is one of the neatest blogs… "authenticity" is very much a part of my home church's culture (@sandalschurch). Love seeing Kingdom folk from across the Twitterverse. Keep it up, Rick.
Oh, and eating Cadburry chocolate eggs whole is gross.
Dude Rick, you're nuts! I love the doublepoppin' that you keep doing, and Pete seems like an awesome guy, although I'm not expecting a call from him anytime soon
// I'm no Pastor or anything, but I'm down for a double poppin', as I'd love to connect with you in that way!
I had a friend @dylanwarner text me at like 8am the other day asking me what #doublepoppin was, since he just joined recently. Needless to say, I started laughing out loud, and proceeded to tell him what it was
Hey thanks for the feedback, I'm glad you are enjoying it! I can't wait to get you on #doublepopped (and your super awesome, super hero husband!) We could do a couples double popped!
Man FOR SURE your going to be on double popped! Your an awesome dude – very worthy of a doublepop! Thanks for checking out the videos, I'm glad you like them! My hope is I can people to see that we are all so much more then just an avatar! Your awesome bro!
very helpful thoughts -very challenging bless you -keep going ! Ian
Thanks for interviewing Pete. He seriously is one of the smartest, down-to-earth people I know. Love hearing his thoughts in whatever form they're available.
And I do look forward to Cadbury eggs all year, too but agree with my sistah Dawn. Eating them whole is just gross.
Bonus–our kids had the bowls with the built in straws, too. [Not always fun to clean]
Thanks so much for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed! Pete really is a crazy, awesome guy – I'm glad I was able to connect with him. I noticed the word “had” the bowls – did you throw them out, or did they outgrow them! (not that you could really outgrow thembecauseI would use one if I had one!) I can't wait to get you on #doublepopped !!!
wow… i love the honesty. agreed. social media is a tool. love how it gives people a glimpse into who we are outside the church building. i appreciate pete's take on keeping that real and not trying to make it look pretty.
thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed! Be sure to check back soon – I'll be posting more videos very soon!
They somehow got.. um, "lost" in our last move. Not sure what happened there..
Rick – thanks for this avenue to give us personal insights on the person behind the avatar. Love Pete Wilson and his thoughts on social media – want my pastor/boss to hear this.
Cadbury eggs, really? Give me choc-covered malted milk eggs please.
Hey thanks for the great feedback! You're awesome! I need to get you on doublepopped!
Loving this man. I am regular reader / viewer.
again dude, nice job. it's neat to see what a person is really like–and it's usually not what I think based on an avatar and a few tweets. this is awesome. keep poppin!
Man you rock! I can't wait to get you on it!
Man you rock! I can't wait to get you on it!
I love this interview. Best one of the bunch for me. Keep it up rick… I am glad I found you online such a big help!
Dude thanks for the feedback! I can't wait you to get on here!
Wow…really? Thanks so much. I've recorded several more – will be putting them up soon! Thanks for the feedback. I enjoy ALL feedback. Feel free to let me know anything you think would make them better!
Good stuff, Rick. I agree with what others have said, it's nice to see these and connect a little bit with who a person really is. Keep 'em coming, brother!
Thanks so much for the feedback. Nice to know people enjoy these! Also if there is someone you would like to see Double Popped let me know, and I'll try to get them on! You rock!
Hey RickwSmith.com Nathan & Shawn are members of our team at Destiny. They had a great time connecting with you on Train Friday. Enjoying what you bring and am thinking about flipping my collar soon! Check ya'
Great video! Pete Wilson is the man! What program are you using to "Double Pop" someone? Cool stuff…
@kevinmurrell
Hey thanks man! I'm glad you liked it! (and you're right! Pete is the man!) I'll be doing many more so check back often! I used a program called conf. recorder pro….check it out….it works well!
I love how open and real this was. I enjoyed it and was encouraged by the authenticity.
I'd volunteer to be doublepopped but I'm just a volunteer at a teeny tiny little church in Mississippi. I get more out of this whole blog-twitter-facebook experience than I could ever give.
Pee Dubs is the man… I am a huge fan.
me to! He really is awesome indeed!
Hey I'd love to get you on! Thanks so much for the feedback. It's encouraging to hear that people really enjoy these videos! Keep checking back, I'll keep posting them!
{by the way – you “give” more then you know. Just like a community – everyone gives in some way! Thanks for being a part of the community!}
i want to double pop it.
…jeffcapps…
Man – are you kidding me! You are so in! You just tell me when, and where!
i dig his blog, very personable
