YouTube has numerous versions of the famous “Lifehouse – ‘Everything’” skit (reportedly first performed at Winterfest 2006 by a group called The Mission). Each clip offers its own unique twist on the same incredible story of divine redemption:
“Who is he that condemns? Christ Jesus, who died—more than that, who was raised to life—is at the right hand of God and is also interceding for us. Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? … No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” (Rom. 8:34-5, 37-9)
The Forest Hills Church and Higher Praise Tube versions of the skit are my favorites. The first has a beautiful simplicity, while the second is bursting with passion and victory. The Skyline SIB/Skylight Videos clip transforms the skit into a polished short film production. The Criscilla Crossland one, performed in an LA nightclub, has a certain compelling rawness to it and is geared towards a slightly more mature age group. Parents should note that these latter two clips are a bit more graphic than the first two, but all of the versions are meant for audiences aged junior high and above.
