Music Speaks Louder Than Words

In this final episode of our program, Rev. Dale says "thank you" with a gift to you of New Thought songs and artists that have been meaningful in his life. Dale is saying "farewell" after five years as a host on Unity Online Radio. He is grateful to: Rev. Jamie Sanders, for suggesting that he make a proposal for this show back in the first quarter of 2010; to Denise Blake, former station manager, for saying YES to Music Speaks; to Harold Payne for allowing us to use his amazing song as our theme song and show title; to Rev. Christy Snow for saying YES to cohosting the show for the past year; to Jeff Comfort, for his technical wizardry as engineer and the fun we have had behind the scenes; and to current station manager Jeremiah Samborski, for leaving the door open for a possible new and improved show sometime in the not too distant future. And especially thank YOU to everyone who has listened and shared the program so faithfully. Remember, you may be the only music that someone hears today, so let your song be heard! Bless you.

Saying YES to life means continually flowing with the process of change. This show is titled "Change Is STILL Good," after one of Christy Snow's songs, which she said she sang for years before she believed. So often we hold on so tightly to things (people, homes, jobs, and so on) because we believe they are our happiness; instead of realizing our happiness is our responsibility and comes from within us, and we experience it more when we allow life to do what life does through us, which is to flow and change. Paying attention to Spirit's whisper, and then acting on it, allows room for life to pull us into more joy, more prosperity, more love, and more happiness by embracing the one constant, which is change.

Grace is not a favor that God occasionally bestows to the pious and the obedient. God's Grace is freely available at all times. The question is: are we allowing ourselves to receive it? Open yourself to the Grace of God with this episode of Music Speaks Louder Than Words.

Jimmy Landry reminds us that Life Is Good! No matter the circumstances that come our way, there is always an option to dance to the Rhythm of Life and to Do What You Can, to Stop Draggin' Those Thoughts Around, and to trust in your connection to the whole as we remember we are just a Spec of Dust in the Universe. Yes, those are song titles, and yes, they read like an inspirational message because that is just who Jimmy is, so check out this amazing force of love!

Back in the olden days, before the Internet and digital downloads, wondrous and mysterious machines called phonographs played music from vinyl record albums. The smaller 45s only had two songs: an artist's hit single was on one side, and the flip side of the record was called the "B side." Typically, the B side was a little-known song that may not have even been included on any of the artist's albums. In this episode of Music Speaks, we hear some great "B sides" from three major New Thought recording artists: Daniel Nahmod, Karen Drucker, and Rickie Byars. Your host Dale Worley presents songs that you may not have heard before, performed in a style that you may not expect ... and ends the show with a surprise recording from Agape International leader, Rev. Michael Beckwith!

This type of surrender makes way for the Universe to show up and show off as you.

The title of this show comes from the end of their song, "Tell a Stronger Story." You will hear Jan speak over the music “Be the proof that love will find a way.
