Announcement: Launch of Gaming.zac-James.com!

A quick announcement for you – I now have two blogs operating at zac-James.com!  All gaming videos, news and updates will be hosted at a separate blog which is part of this site at gaming.zac-James.com.   This is my fun, in-my-spare-time gaming site.  All music, web design, professional and other personal posts will appear on the zac-James.com existing blog as per usual.

I did this to allow some flexibility for followers.  If you want to just get notifications of my music, web design, professional posts and personal news, use the Subscribe button at the bottom of zac-James.com to follow me and get those posts emailed to you.  If you want to get only my gaming videos, go to gaming.zac-James.com and click the Subscribe button.  If you want both, that’s awesome!  You’ll need to click Subscribe on both sites.

In the same vein, my Facebook and Twitter pages will only post zac-James.com posts.   For gaming updates and news about when I’ll be livestreaming gameplay, follow these Facebook & Twitter pages.

This should allow some flexibility based on your interests, and allow me to keep the gaming side of things (which I do for fun in my spare time) separate from my professional, music & business interests.

Thanks for reading!  More posts to come!

Happy Easter!

Happy Easter!

On this day, we remember that Jesus Christ was risen, just as he said:

Matthew 28

1 After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb.

There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it.

His appearance was like lightning, and his clothes were white as snow.

The guards were so afraid of him that they shook and became like dead men.

The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified.

He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay.

Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”

So the women hurried away from the tomb, afraid yet filled with joy, and ran to tell his disciples.

Suddenly Jesus met them. “Greetings,” he said. They came to him, clasped his feet and worshiped him.

10 Then Jesus said to them,“Do not be afraid. Go and tell my brothers to go to Galilee; there they will see me.”

Video: Vineyard Grace Fellowship Live – “Hosanna”

This was the first song of the March 23-24, 2013 set.  Original arrangement by Hillsong United, led by Lydia Latiolais, with Zac on harmony.

Note:  This is a live mix recorded straight from the board, with no editing, pitch fixing or mastering done whatsoever.  Huge thanks to Jason Bertok and the VGF Worship Team for their hard work!
