Don’t Be Deceived This Christmas!

By Harris III | No Comments

If you’ve been to one of our live events, you may remember me talking about how our minds take in about 3,000-4,000 messages and advertisements every single day here in America.  That’s a lot of messages pointing you in a lot of different directions vying for your attention.  The scary thing is, as high as that number is, it’s even HIGHER during the Christmas season!

What is this Christmas about for you?  If you’re reading this blog, you’re probably the kind of person that has already heard that “Jesus is the reason for the season.” Like a thousand times.  Right?  Sounds cliche…but it’s true.  But you already know that, don’t you?  The problem isn’t that you don’t already know the truth, it’s that for most of us, our actions and lives don’t match up with what we know is true.  Alas…it is EASY to be deceived.  We get mis-directed every day…especially at Christmas time.

So what’s your mission this Christmas?

Will you focus on and celebrate the truth?

Or will you buy the lies?

Chances are, your family has already developed a focus for this season.  Want to know what that focus is?  Just ask yourself these two questions…   READ ALL

I’m FINALLY doing it! And I want YOU to be a part of it!

By Harris III | 4 Comments

I’ve been doing what I do for almost 20 years now.  Can you believe that?  I can’t.  I’ve been fascinated by the art of magic since I was 9 years old, about 20 years ago, and have been performing professionally for 15 years!  During that entire stretch of time, I have been repeatedly asked questions over and over again like:

“Where can I get a copy of your show?”
“Why don’t you have a DVD?”
“Did someone record this? I REALLY wish my friend could have been here to experience it!”

Well, it’s finally happening.  I’ve purposefully waited for well over a decade, because I wanted to make sure the timing was perfect and that it could end up being everything I dreamed it could be.  But yes, I’m finally releasing a live show on dvd.  And trust me, it’s going to be absolutely amazing!

It’s going to be so much more than just a live show.  We’ve been filming for the past few months all over the place, including places like England and Scotland.  We took a trip to the U.K. a few months ago just to work on a section of this project.  We’re investing in it that much!  Why?  I truly believe it’s going to be an incredible resource for others, and has the potential to change lives.  And when a project has that kind of potential, why wouldn’t you give it everything you’ve got?

This is an amazing opportunity for you to be a huge part of this project!  On October 23rd, we’ll be filming a live show at the beautiful Paramount Theater in Anderson, IN!  It’s in the Indianapolis area, right outside of the city.  Not only would I love to see you there, we need to ensure that we have an absolutely PACKED house that night!  If you just can’t make it, the chances are, you know someone who lives in the area.

In fact, why not take a moment right now to send them information about the show and help us spread the word?  You don’t want them to find out about it after it’s over, see it later on TV or dvd, then discover that you knew about it all along, do you?  No need for anyone to regret not being there…let’s all spread the word and pack this place out.  It’s a unique opportunity for everyone to be involved in something that has the potential to be really, really special.

Plus, I’ll be risking my life that night attempting something for the first time that has never been attempted before.  Even Houdini himself refused to try it.  But I will…and I want you to be there to experience it being attempted for the first time. You can be a part of history!  Trust me, you do not want to miss this show!

Details are on the poster/image above, and you can CLICK HERE TO RESERVE YOUR SEAT.  Once you have it reserved, you get the whole seat…but you’ll only need the edge!  ;-)

9 Year Old Isaac Talks Magic Tricks, Video Games, Twitter, Apple, Steve Jobs, and AT&T.

By Harris III | 1 Comment

I love doing video blogs/interviews. I love talking to others and learning about people. But usually I’m interviewing music artists, high-profile speakers, authors, pastors…mainly leaders. I decided to sit down and talk to a kid, and I can’t wait to do it again.  After all, even kids are leaders for some.

Meet my friend, Isaac. He’s one of our members on illusionism.TV.  He talks about his Twitter profile, experience with Apple and AT&T, and plenty about his love for video games.  If you’ve ever wondered what it might look like for a performing artist, (me), to get upstaged and outperformed during an interview by a 9 year old kid, this is what it looks like.  Enjoy this 5 minutes of non-stop entertainment:   READ ALL

Book of Eli

In my last post, I told you how much I loved Inception, and how I believe that real “inception” actually happens every day.

Last night, my wife and I enjoyed another incredible film, Book of Eli.  I didn’t get to enjoy it on a massive digitally projected screen or with state of the art surround sound, but I still liked it.  Not only did I like it, I found it convicting.

There’s a scene in the movie where Denzel Washington’s character gets asked about the “old world”, which in case you haven’t seen the film, would be in reference to the current world that you and I live in today.  His response was simple, yet profound:   READ ALL
