A few months ago I saw a video by this guy named Rob Bell. I haven't looked too much into who he is, but he sure does produce some powerful videos. He is the perfect mixture between storytelling actor and theologian. His videos are only about 10 minutes long, and is more of him telling a story from his life as he walks along, or unloads his car. But the analogies he attaches are profound, real, and raw.
I bet this is how Jesus was when he walked the earth: not preachy, not judgmental, but instead using things of everyday life to explain to the common folk how life works.

Most samples on this website are 10 second clips, but here is a full length (11 minute) film
Rain 001
(Windows Media)
In Rain 001 Rob tells about a walk he went on with his 1 yr old son, when suddenly it started to rain. His son was screaming from the rain and the thunder, and if he was articulate enough may have asked why his dad was allowing him to be so uncomfortable. How often we ask God the same thing.
