Podcasts about Amazing Grace

What does it really mean to experience the amazing grace of God? In this message, Pastor Jeff Schreve explores the staggering truth that Jesus Christ, though infinitely rich, became poor for our sake so that through His poverty we might become rich. Discover the grace that brought Christ from the glory of heaven to the cross and gives undeserving sinners the priceless riches of salvation.

You Are Not Alone: How the Holy Spirit Guides Us – John 16In Episode 154 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue their journey through the Gospel of John with John 16, where Jesus prepares His disciples for what life will look like after He leaves—and gives them an incredible promise: the Holy Spirit is coming.Jesus tells His disciples that the Spirit of Truth will guide them, teach them, reveal truth, and point them back to Him. What feels like Jesus leaving is actually the beginning of something new: God's presence dwelling within His people.Together, Jamie and Jane unpack what it practically means to be led by the Holy Spirit. How do we recognize His guidance? How do we distinguish His voice from our own thoughts, fears, and desires? And how can we trust His leading when we don't know what's coming next?John 16 also reminds us that following Jesus doesn't mean avoiding difficulty. Jesus tells His disciples plainly that trouble will come—but then gives them a promise we still desperately need today: “Take heart! I have overcome the world.”If you're facing a decision, walking through uncertainty, or simply longing to recognize God's voice more clearly, pull up a chair. You don't have to figure everything out on your own. The Holy Spirit is still guiding.Reflection Question: Where am I trying to figure everything out on my own instead of slowing down and allowing the Holy Spirit to guide me?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

In this Cross Talk episode, the hosts reflect on where they were during 9/11 and how experiencing the attacks in real time created a lasting cultural and emotional imprint, especially compared to earlier events like Pearl Harbor. They discuss how fear shaped public policy and bipartisan decisions after 9/11, including the Homeland Security Act and ICE, and how public discourse later deteriorated into deeper political division. The conversation argues that a long-running shift in education and worldview—described as “intellectual osmosis” influenced by anti-Christian secular thought—helped move society from brief post-9/11 unity to a culture that increasingly treats Christianity as the problem while often tolerating or celebrating Islam. They emphasize 9/11 as a theological issue, describe teaching their children about it, and note how memorials still rely on Christian language like “Amazing Grace.”}

Acclaimed musicologist, composer, and author Dr. Michael Hicks served on the BYU faculty for 35 years, retiring as Professor Emeritus of Music. In our conversation, we delve into the rich and often surprising history of Latter-day Saint hymnody, looking at everything from the earliest frontier gatherings to the forthcoming global hymnbook.Michael shares how early Saints truly experienced music in their worship, shedding light on the untold stories behind iconic hymns, the shifts across different church hymnals, and the musical tastes of church leaders. We also dive into the oral practice of “lining out” hymns, the stark divide between Emma Smith's personal, grace-centered hymn selections and the Apostles' second-coming anthems, and the peculiar tale of how President Spencer W. Kimball's personal record collection made its way across the Atlantic.Some highlights from this episode include:The Lost Art of “Lining Out”: How early Latter-day Saints sang without hymnals or printed musical notation, relying on an oral, line-by-line call-and-response tradition that mirrors modern campfires and concerts.Emma Smith vs. The British Apostles: The dramatic divergence in early LDS hymnody—how Emma Smith favored deeply personal hymns centered on grace, individual redemption, and grief (including "Amazing Grace"), while the Apostles in Manchester compiled bold, millenarian songs of triumph and Zion.Joseph Smith's Real Musical Favorites: Debunking the popular myth that "A Poor Wayfaring Man of Grief" was Joseph Smith's personal favorite song, and revealing why four out of his five most requested tunes were melancholy soldier ballads about the grief and regret of war.Gospel Hymnody & "Pub Songs": How 19th-century revivalist music, jaunty 3:1 rhythms, and slow harmonic changes reshaped Latter-day Saint worship—and why British and Welsh members initially dismissed these upbeat tunes as mere "pub songs."The "Alleged" New Hymnbook: Michael's insider perspective on the monumental process of revising the Church's hymnbook, the tension between British Anglican choral aspirations and eclectic multilingual expansion, and what really happens behind closed doors when committee selections are presented to the Quorum of the Twelve.President Kimball's Secret Record Collection: The funny and heartwarming story of how Michael acquired Spencer W. Kimball's personal vinyl and 78 RPM record collection—complete with the prophet's red-inked initials over his son's name—and ended up handwriting a certificate of authenticity on a fast-food receipt for two shocked British shoppers at Deseret Industries.Resources Mentioned:• Website: Visit Michael Hicks' official site for his full catalogue of music, articles, and scholarly work:https://michaelhicks.org• Book (Print/eBook): "Spencer Kimball's Record Collection: Essays on Mormon Music" by Michael Hicks (Signature Books):https://www.signaturebooks.com/books/p/spencer-kimballs-record-collection• Audiobook: "Spencer Kimball's Record Collection" (Audible Edition, narrated by Michael Hicks):https://www.audible.com/pd/Spencer-Kimballs-Record-Collection-Audiobook/B08N6WX14P• Scholarly Article: "What Hymns Early Mormons Sang and How They Sang Them" by Michael Hicks (BYU Studies):https://byustudies.byu.edu/article/what-hymns-early-mormons-sang-and-how-they-sang-themFollow For All The Saints on social media for updates and inspiring content:www.instagram.com/forallthesaintspodhttps://www.facebook.com/forallthesaintspod/For All The Saints episodes are released every Monday on YouTube, Spotify, Apple Podcasts and more:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TVDUQg_qZIU&list=UULFFf7vzrJ2LNWmp1Kl-c6K9Qhttps://open.spotify.com/show/3j64txm9qbGVVZOM48P4HS?si=bb31d048e05141f2https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/for-all-the-saints/id1703815271If you have feedback or any suggestions for topics or guests, connect with Ben & Sean via hello@forallthesaints.org or DM on InstagramConversations to Refresh Your Faith.

"Hymns We Sing" – "Amazing Grace" (9/27/2026) – Bill Rhea by

Today, we had a special musical performance of This Is Amazing Grace, a performance of the Praise Team at Faith Lutheran Church in Okemos, Michigan. Published Under License From Essential Music Publishing, LLC

It's Friday, September 25th, A.D. 2026. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus Sudanese officials take away church property In Sudan, Africa, a 97% Muslim country, the battle for the soul of the church is not only fought with guns. It's also fought with court papers, administrative orders, and calculated division, reports International Christian Concern. For years, successive authorities in Khartoum, the capital, have pressured church leaders to comply, and then moved to seize control of church properties. One church now at the center of this struggle is the Sudanese Church of Christ, Marzouq Branch, established in 1982. The Sudanese government is now moving to sell or transfer control of the property.   The pastor said, “When a church that has stood since 1982 is suddenly told it no longer belongs to the people who prayed and sacrificed for it, the wound goes deeper than the loss of a building. It tells every believer that even the house of God is not safe.”  Isaiah 10:1 says, “Woe to those who make unjust laws, to those who issue oppressive decrees.” Write a polite, 4-sentence note to the Sudanese Ambassador to America,  Mohamed Idris, asking him to urge the Sudanese government to stop illegally seizing church properties. Send it to 2210 Massachusetts Ave. NW, Washington, DC 20008. Voters may be unhappy with Trump, but know Democrats are worse Appearing on CNN, Republican political strategist and commentator Scott Jennings argued that voters can be unhappy with President Donald Trump without believing Democrats are the better alternative. Listen. JENNINGS: “It's going to be possible for people to have some problems with the current administration or have some issue with the way things are going, and still vote for the party in power, because they don't want to vote for the other party. “Because the other party in the election might be proven to have worse ideas, or to have been judged to have put us in this hole in the first place. That's really the case that the Republicans are going to wind up making.” Judge restores CNN, MS NOW and Politico access to White House On September 18, President Donald Trump had announced that he was banning CNN, MS NOW and Politico from the White House premises over their publishing sensitive or classified information. The White House said such behavior presented risks to national security. On September 24, federal Judge Timothy Kelly of the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia issued a temporary restraining order against the government ban, reinstating access for all three media outlets, reports The Epoch Times. North Carolina church baptizes 458 people in a single day In Acts 2:38, we are commanded to “repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins.” Well, on Sunday, September 13th, 458 people did just that in one day at Biltmore Church, a multisite church in Fletcher, North Carolina, as part of its annual Outdoor Baptism event, reports The Christian Post. Biltmore Pastor Devin Goins and the pastoral team baptized them in a nearby lake. He explained, “In the days before Outdoor Baptism, anyone interested was personally contacted by our staff to confirm that they knew Christ personally as their Savior and were ready to take this next step of obedience as a Christ-follower.” Overall, Pastor Goins said that seeing so many people get baptized creates "an opportunity to celebrate and praise God for being at work in our midst.” Amazing Grace movie re-mastered for 20th anniversary, available free And finally, WILLIAM WILBERFORCE: “Remember, God made men equal.” That's a soundbite from the movie, Amazing Grace, which tells the true story of William Wilberforce, the British parliamentarian who led the decades-long fight to abolish the slave trade. Elected to Parliament at just 21, Wilberforce seemed destined for a life of comfort and influence—until a profound spiritual awakening and a life-changing encounter with former slave Olaudah Equiano compelled him to take up a far greater cause. Driven by faith and an unshakable sense of justice, he builds an unlikely coalition to challenge the most powerful economic and political forces of his time. Alongside mentor and slave-trader-turned-abolitionist Rev. John Newton, Prime Minister William Pitt, and activist Thomas Clarkson, Wilberforce faced fierce opposition in a relentless campaign to end one of history's greatest injustices. A story of courage and conviction, Amazing Grace shows how one man stood firm for the truth that all souls were created in God's image.

Joy in the Resistance: Loving Jesus When the World Pushes Back – John 15:13–27In Episode 153 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane continue through John 15:13–27, where Jesus moves from one of His greatest statements about love—“Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one's life for one's friends”—into a difficult truth about what it means to follow Him: not everyone will understand or accept you.Jesus calls His disciples friends, commands them to love one another, and reminds them that they have been chosen to bear lasting fruit. But He also prepares them for resistance, rejection, and persecution.So how do we hold onto joy, love, and faith when following Jesus becomes difficult?Together, Jamie and Jane explore what it means to love sacrificially without needing the approval of the world, how to remain rooted in Christ when your faith is challenged, and the role of the Holy Spirit—the Advocate—who empowers us to testify about Jesus.Following Christ doesn't guarantee an easy road. But Jesus never asks us to walk it alone.This conversation is an invitation to stay rooted in love, remain faithful under pressure, and choose joy even when following Jesus comes with a cost.Reflection Question: Can I remain joyful, loving, and faithful to Jesus even when following Him costs me the approval of others?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

https://wels2.blob.core.windows.net/daily-devotions/20260923dev.mp3 Listen to Devotion “And should I not have concern for the great city of Nineveh, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot tell their right hand from their left—and also many animals?” Jonah 4:11 Amazing Grace for All Every day we get to choose how we will spend our time, our money, and our energy. Good time and money management often means deciding what matters most and putting those things first. When God asks, “Should I not have concern for the great city of Nineveh, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people…?” it may seem like he is saying that, because Nineveh is a big city, it is worthy of my time and attention. But what if you don’t live in a big city? Or even if you do, how do you know if God is concerned about you? How do you know if God loves you? Listen to the rest of God’s question: “Should I not have concern for the great city of Nineveh, in which there are more than a hundred and twenty thousand people who cannot tell their right hand from their left—and also many animals?” You see, God is concerned for the lowest of the low, with no qualities that make them worth saving and no ability to help themselves. And that’s exactly whom God loves. God is concerned about the young and old, rich and poor, the strong and the disabled, people of every culture and language. That’s good news, because it means he is concerned about you, no matter how small or insignificant you may feel. His concern for you led him to make you his top priority. He gave everything for you, including his only Son, so that, no matter who you are, you can know that you are loved, forgiven, and cherished. You can live confidently in that love and be sure that nothing will take his amazing grace away from you. Prayer: Jesus, thank you for loving me, no matter how small I feel. Amen.

Watch on YouTubeCarson Bruce continues a music theory series on the Worship Keys podcast, moving beyond last week's circle of fifths episode into passing chords. He explains secondary dominants (the “five of” the next chord) using a memorization tool called the “musical phone number” 736-2514, derived from the circle of fifths, to help choose what chord can precede another in a progression. In C, he demonstrates how these ideas spice up simple progressions in songs like “Amazing Grace” and “How Great Is Our God,” emphasizing slash-chord/left-hand approaches and using major dominant chords before IV, V, and vi (e.g., I7→IV, II7→V, III7→vi). He then introduces tritone bass substitution, replacing a dominant 7 with another dominant a tritone away (often thought of as playing a dominant a half-step above the destination), demonstrates it in “We Wish You a Merry Christmas,” and encourages practicing these concepts in every key.Support the showThanks for listening!

Evangelism does not have to be complicated. It starts with telling others what God has done in our lives. Through the story of Jesus healing the Gerasene man and the story behind Amazing Grace, we discover that our own stories can help others see God's grace and invite them to experience it too.   We apologize for the audio quality in this podcast episode.

Peter teaches that salvation by grace has always been God's plan, revealed through Old Testament prophets who spoke of a coming Messiah and searched diligently to understand when His suffering and glory would unfold. These prophets—from Isaiah and Jeremiah to David and Daniel—foreshadowed Christ's sacrificial death, resurrection, and eternal reign, even though they themselves would never see its fulfillment. Their Spirit‑inspired messages pointed ahead to the grace believers now experience, a gift so extraordinary that even angels long to look into it. Peter's point is that the salvation Christians enjoy today is the very reality the prophets anticipated, the apostles proclaimed, and heaven marvels at, making believers a chosen people entrusted with declaring God's saving work through Christ.

David extended grace to Jonathan's son, Mephibosheth and invited him to live as one of his own sons.

Amazing Grace (My Chains Are Gone).

1 Samuel 1:19-28 - Rev. Andrew Boreland - Evening Service - Series: From Samuel to Saul: God's kingmaker to people's king

Amazing Grace and educational choice

Twenty-five years can soften details or sharpen them, and for me 9/11 does both. I go back to September 11, 2001 and tell you what I still remember clearly: waking up to the TV, the fear that spread through ordinary phone calls, and the way strangers gathered in candlelight vigils and ended up singing Amazing Grace together. That memory isn't nostalgia for its own sake. It's a measuring stick for what unity looked like when politics didn't matter and neighbors did. Before I get heavy, I also pull back the curtain on real life: preparing Loud Proud American for the Freiburg Fair, the biggest event we do. That means made in USA inventory planning, reordering graphics, stretching cash flow, and trying to make smart marketing moves without mortgaging the future. I talk about the growing pains that come with a lifestyle brand that's expanding, and the tension of chasing big goals while still trying to be present as a husband and a first-time dad. Then we zoom back out to the bigger question: what happened to the patriotism and togetherness so many of us felt after 9/11, and why does the country feel more divided now than ever? I connect that to COVID as another factory reset moment, how quickly good habits die, and why homeschooling has surged as parents push back on narratives they don't trust. I end where I think the foundation still lives: God, family, and country, plus the choice to grow through struggle instead of just going through it. If this hits home, subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the conversation.

I believe grace is one of the most Christlike ways that we can be loving. When we better understand Christ's Grace for us, when we can accept that Grace into our own lives, and when we can then extend this Grace to others, everything seems to change. We feel more peace and compassion, we develop a stronger sense of self, and we feel more deeply connected to Divinity, ourselves, and others. We can never go wrong with Grace.

One unexpected voicemail turns into a permanent memory and it forces a question most of us would rather skip: if you only had one set of final words, would they match the way you lived? We start with a story that feels almost cinematic, a summer night, a bagpipe playing “Amazing Grace,” and a call that becomes a goodbye. From there, we sit with how fragile life really is and why legacy is built in ordinary choices long before a hospital room or funeral.Then we open Joshua 24 and follow Joshua's final words as he gathers everyone, not to celebrate his success, but to retell the faithfulness of God. We talk about what it means to gather your family around the story of God instead of building your own empire, and we get practical with habits that actually stick: a daily Bible reading plan through Psalms, Proverbs, and the Gospels, plus the simple discipline of making church a priority so your home stays anchored.We also go straight at the hard stuff: generational sin, patterns that repeat, and what it looks like to “throw it away” and choose a new direction through the grace of Jesus. The episode builds to Joshua's line that still confronts every household today, “as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord,” and it ends with the words of Christ on the cross and an invitation to receive forgiveness and amazing grace.If this message hits home, subscribe for more, share it with someone who needs hope, and leave a review so more people can find it.

Stay Connected: The Vine, the Branches & the Purpose of Pruning – John 15:1–12In Episode 151 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane dive into one of Jesus' most powerful pictures of our relationship with Him: “I am the vine; you are the branches.”In John 15:1–12, Jesus teaches that a fruitful life doesn't come from striving harder—it comes from abiding deeper. But He also introduces something most of us would rather avoid: pruning.Together, Jamie and Jane explore why God prunes even the branches that are already producing fruit, how seasons of cutting back can actually prepare us for greater growth, and what it practically looks like to remain connected to Jesus when life feels uncomfortable or uncertain.What if the thing God is removing isn't punishment? What if it's preparation?Jesus' invitation is simple: Remain in Me. Because apart from Him we can do nothing, but connected to the Vine, our lives can produce the kind of lasting fruit God created us to bear.And at the center of it all is love—remaining in His love and learning to love others as He has loved us.Reflection Question: What if the thing I've been asking God to restore is actually something He's pruning so I can grow?____________________________________Connect with Jamie:Website: www.jamieklusacek.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacekConnect with Jane:Website: www.janewwilliams.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

Jesus tells a parable that hits at the heart of the human experience. Comparison feels like an innate part of being human. We are constantly trying to figure out how we measure up and how we might justify our own actions (or our own existence). But Jesus shows us that comparison is a trap, and that true freedom and confidence can only be found in trusting him with the confident trust of a child.Application Questions: 1. What are ways you find yourself comparing yourself to others?2. How have you found the self-righteousness of comparison to leave you empty and insecure?3. What keeps you from the simple, regular admission that you are a sinner desperately in need of God's mercy?4. What characteristics of child-ish-ness to you still need to grow out of?5. What characteristics of child-like-ness do you need to hold onto or recapture?

NOTAS DE ELENAMaterial complementario de la escuela Sabática para adultosNarrado por: Patty CuyanDesde: California, USAUna cortesía de DR'Ministries y Canaan Seventh-Day Adventist ChurchLUNES, 07 DE SEPTIEMBRELA MOTIVACIÓNLa vida de Cristo era de una influencia siempre creciente, sin límites; una influencia que lo ligaba a Dios y a toda la familia humana. Por medio de Cristo, Dios ha investido al hombre de una influencia que le hace imposible vivir para sí. Estamos individualmente vinculados con nuestros semejantes, somos una parte del gran todo de Dios y nos hallamos bajo obligaciones mutuas. Ningún hombre puede ser independiente de sus prójimos, pues el bienestar de cada uno afecta a los demás. Es el propósito de Dios que cada uno se sienta necesario para el bienestar de los otros y trate de promover su felicidad... Toda persona con la cual nos relacionamos queda, consciente o inconscientemente, afectada por la atmósfera que nos rodea... Nuestras palabras, nuestros actos, nuestro vestido, nuestra conducta, hasta la expresión de nuestro rostro, tienen influencia... Si por nuestro ejemplo ayudamos a otros a desarrollar buenos principios, les damos poder para hacer el bien. Ellos a su vez ejercen la misma influencia sobre otros, y estos sobre otros más. De este modo, miles pueden ser bendecidos por nuestra influencia inconsciente... El carácter es poder. El testimonio silencioso de una vida sincera, abnegada y piadosa, tiene una influencia casi irresistible. Al revelar en nuestra propia vida el carácter de Cristo, cooperamos con él en la obra de salvar almas. Solamente revelando en nuestra vida su carácter, podemos cooperar con él. Y cuanto más amplia es la esfera de nuestra influencia, mayor bien podemos hacer. Cuando los que profesan servir a Dios sigan el ejemplo de Cristo practicando los principios de la ley en su vida diaria; cuando cada acto dé testimonio de que aman a Dios más que todas las cosas y a su prójimo como a sí mismos, entonces la iglesia tendrá poder para conmover al mundo. Pero nunca ha de olvidarse que la influencia no ejerce menos poder para el mal. Perder la propia alma es algo terrible, pero ser la causa de la pérdida de otras almas es más terrible aún... Solamente por la gracia de Dios podemos emplear debidamente este don (God's Amazing Grace, p. 231; parcialmente en La maravillosa gracia de Dios, 11 de agosto, p. 231). La religión de Jesucristo obra una reforma en la vida y el carácter. El verdadero cristiano busca constantemente la gracia que cambia los rasgos objetables del carácter natural. En vez de hablar palabras cortantes y dictatoriales, habla las palabras de ánimo que Cristo hablaría si estuviera en su lugar. Muestra benevolencia hacia todos, y no solamente a los pocos que alaban y exaltan su sabiduría. La pureza y santidad que se revelaron en la vida de Cristo irradian de la vida del verdadero cristiano. Los cristianos han de ser portadores de luz en el mundo, que brillen en medio de las tinieblas del pecado y el crimen. En el reino de este mundo deben enfrentar constantemente los principados y poderes que eligen a Satanás como su jefe. Son hijos de Dios los que reciben a Cristo y siguen su ejemplo al llevar la cruz y negarse a sí mismos. "Mas a todos los que le recibieron, a los que creen en su nombre, les dio potestad de ser hechos hijos de Dios". Juan 1:12. Ellos son los vencedores en la batalla de la vida, porque se han revestido del nuevo hombre "el cual conforme a la imagen del que lo creó se va renovando hasta el conocimiento pleno". Colosenses 3:10 (Alza tus ojos, 2 de marzo, p. 73).

In this special on location episode from London, the AC Podcast team records inside St. Mary Woolnoth Church, the historic parish of John Newton, writer of “Amazing Grace.”A chance encounter with parish priest Rev. Wole becomes a fascinating conversation about the spiritual transformation happening across the UK. From secularism and progressivism to the rise of New Age spirituality, manifestation, and witchcraft, Rev. Wole shares why a new generation of seekers is being drawn back to prayer, Scripture, and the Church.As the first Black priest to lead Newton's former parish, he also reflects on carrying forward a remarkable legacy of faith, freedom, and the gospel in the heart of modern London.

Peace the World Can't Give: The Promise of the Holy Spirit – John 14:15–31 In Episode 150 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane finish John 14 with one of Jesus' greatest promises: we will never have to walk alone. As Jesus prepares His disciples for His departure, He promises the coming of the Holy Spirit—the Advocate, Helper, and Teacher who will remain with them and remind them of everything Jesus has taught. Then, in the middle of uncertainty about what comes next, Jesus gives them something the world cannot manufacture: His peace. Together, Jamie and Jane explore what it means to recognize the presence of the Holy Spirit in our everyday lives, how love for Jesus shapes our obedience, and the difference between temporary peace based on circumstances and the lasting peace that comes from Christ. Jesus never promised His followers a life without trouble, questions, or uncertainty. He promised something better: His presence in the middle of it. If your heart has been anxious, overwhelmed, or searching for peace, pull up a chair. John 14 reminds us that we have a Helper, we have His presence, and we have a peace the world cannot give. Reflection Question: Am I looking to my circumstances to give me peace—or am I learning to receive the peace Jesus has already given me? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

On this episode of The Bandwich Tapes, I sit down with SAVNT, lead singer of Ghost Hounds, for a conversation about the band's new album Justified, vocal interpretation, storytelling, musical identity, and the unexpected path that brought him into the group.We spend a lot of time talking about SAVNT's approach as a singer. Sam Cooke was one of his earliest and most important influences, but his musical upbringing was much broader than any one genre. Soul, rock, country, and pop all existed together in his home, and that openness still shapes the way he hears music today. As SAVNT puts it during our conversation, “soul is not a genre, it's a feeling.” That idea becomes a through line for much of the episode.We also get deep into the songwriting and recording process behind Ghost Hounds. SAVNT talks about working with Thomas Tull, who often approaches songs almost like a screenwriter, building characters, circumstances, and emotional backstories before SAVNT ever steps to the microphone. From there, the challenge becomes finding that character's truth and connecting it to something real in his own life. We talk about why he prefers singing complete takes in the studio and why he sometimes keeps recording even after everyone else thinks they already have the vocal.The story of how SAVNT joined Ghost Hounds is remarkable. After deciding to leave New York and move to Denver, one final performance in Brooklyn put him in front of the band's former lead singer, who recommended him for the job. Only months later, SAVNT was touring with The Rolling Stones, meeting artists including Lainey Wilson and Patty Griffin, and eventually performing at the Grand Ole Opry. He and drummer Sydney Driver even joined the band on the same day, giving both of them someone else to navigate that transition alongside.We also break down several songs on Justified, including “Sinner's Prayer,” “Pale Horse,” “Something Wicked,” “After You,” and the band's versions of “Gimme Shelter,” “Going Down,” and “Amazing Grace.” SAVNT explains why those older songs naturally became part of the album and why closing the record with “Amazing Grace” gives the entire project an emotional and spiritual destination. It's a conversation about roots music, perseverance, collaboration, and what happens when a singer stops thinking about genre and starts thinking about truth.Key TakeawaysSAVNT's vocal identity comes from an unusually broad musical foundation. Sam Cooke was a formative influence, but country, rock, soul, pop, and other styles were all part of his listening life from an early age.For SAVNT, soul is bigger than a genre. If a folk, bluegrass, country, rock, or jazz performance communicates something real enough to make him feel it, he considers that soul.Ghost Hounds approach songs as stories first. Thomas Tull often gives SAVNT detailed character and emotional context, allowing him to approach the vocal almost like an actor trying to find the truth of a role.SAVNT prefers recording complete vocal performances whenever possible. Singing the full song allows him to build naturally toward its emotional peaks instead of assembling the performance one isolated section at a time.Joining Ghost Hounds was the result of an unlikely chain of events. A final Brooklyn performance before SAVNT planned to move to Denver led to a recommendation, an audition, and ultimately a meeting with the band on January 1, 2024.SAVNT and drummer Sydney Driver joined Ghost Hounds on the same day. Their musical connection quickly became important, with SAVNT describing Sydney as an anchor whose playing helps guide his entrances and phrasing onstage.Justified developed organically rather than according to a rigid plan. Covers including “Gimme Shelter,” “Going Down,” and “Amazing Grace” were originally recorded without certainty that they would become part of an album, but eventually the music itself seemed to determine where they belonged.Songs from the EpisodeSomething Wicked - Ghost HoundsSinner's Prayer - Ghost HoundsGimme Shelter - Ghost HoundsAmazing Grace - Ghost HoundsGoing Down - Ghost HoundsAbout the PodcastThe Bandwich Tapes is a podcast about the people who make music and the experiences that shape them.

SERIES—Guard the Gospel— Faithful Living in a Confused World TODAY'S MESSAGE— Church, Guard Your Doctrine TODAY'S QUESTION— Church, why guard what we believe to be true? Guard Against Fruitless Discussion (1:3-11) Guard God's Amazing Grace (1:12-17) Guard Who We Are Called To Be (1:18-20)

"I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now I see!" So goes John Newton's famous hymn, "Amazing Grace," an account of how God takes away our spiritual blindness. In this message on John 9, Michael Bouterse, director of Thrive Harbor, speaks on the story that inspired Newton's hymn, Jesus' healing of a man born blind. More than just a miracle, Jesus' actions point to the dangerous origins of spiritual blindness and what it takes to recover our sight. Scripture passages cited (or alluded to) in this message include John 9; 20:30-31; Matthew 5:45; and Romans 1:18-20.

Ask, Believe, Dream Bigger: The Greater Things Jesus Promised – John 14:12–14 In Episode 149 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane slow down and dive into just three powerful verses—John 14:12–14—where Jesus makes an astonishing promise about faith, prayer, and the “greater works” His followers will do. What did Jesus mean when He said, “Whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these”? And what do we do with His invitation to “ask me for anything in my name”? Together, Jamie and Jane explore the difference between dreaming with God and simply asking Him to bless our plans. They talk about bold prayers, surrendered dreams, expectations, and what it means to believe that God can accomplish more through our lives than we could ever manufacture on our own. Maybe we've been praying too safely. Maybe we've allowed disappointment to shrink what we're willing to ask God for. John 14 invites us to believe again, ask boldly, dream with God—and remember that ultimately, it is all for the glory of the Father. Reflection Question: Have I allowed fear, disappointment, or past unanswered prayers to make my prayers smaller—and what might God be inviting me to ask Him for again? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams

This episode of God and Our Dogs on Boerne Radio features host Meg Greer in conversation with Stan Leach, athletic director for Boerne ISD and author of children's books. The "Pawndering" episode replays a story from John Tipton about his blind, diabetic miniature Aussie, Festus, who has adapted to his condition by memorizing his surroundings and relying on his owner's guidance. Meg and Stan reflect on the story's parallels to faith — leaning on God during hard times, the value of community and shared testimony, and encouraging one another through storms, tying in Amazing Grace and 1 Thessalonians 5:11. The conversation then shifts to Stan's children's book Athletic As A Camel and its illustrator, followed by a preview of the upcoming BISD sports and extracurricular season. 0:00 — Intro to God and Our Dogs 1:02 — Introducing guest Stan Leach 1:41 — John Tipton's story about Festus the dog 2:33 — Discovering Festus's diabetes 5:01 — Reflecting on Festus's dependence and faith parallels 5:52 — Amazing Grace, community, and testimony 8:59 — 1 Thessalonians 5:11 on encouragement 9:56 — Stan's book, Athletic As A Camel 11:35 — BISD sports season preview 12:48 — Closing thanks and sign-off Host: Meg Grier - Stories@GodAndOurDogs.com Website: www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100072683640098 God and Our Dogs airs every Saturday at 11:15am on Boerne Radio 103.9FM - www.boerneradio.com.

George Whitefield was the most prominent voice of the Great Awakening, yet he was also complicit in the system of chattel slavery. On this episode, David Wollen and Dr. Thomas Kidd honestly examine that difficult tension and consider what it teaches us about the Gospel.

Troubled World, Untroubled Heart: Trusting Jesus When Life Feels Uncertain – John 14:1–11 In Episode 147 of Divine Table Talk, Jamie and Jane step into John 14:1–11, where Jesus speaks some of His most comforting words to His disciples: “Do not let your hearts be troubled.” Jesus knows what is coming. The disciples are facing uncertainty, confusion, and fear—yet He doesn't promise them an easy road. Instead, He gives them something greater: Himself. Together, Jamie and Jane unpack what it means to have an untroubled heart in a troubled world, why trusting God doesn't require understanding everything He's doing, and the hope found in Jesus' declaration: “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” When the world feels uncertain, our circumstances don't have to determine the condition of our hearts. Jesus invites us to trust Him, know the Father through Him, and find peace in the promise that He is preparing the way. If your heart has felt anxious, overwhelmed, or uncertain about what's ahead, John 14 is an invitation to remember who Jesus is—and why you can trust Him. What is troubling my heart right now—and what would change if I trusted Jesus with it instead of trying to control the outcome? ____________________________________ Connect with Jamie: Website: www.jamieklusacek.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jamieklusacek Connect with Jane: Website: www.janewwilliams.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/janewwilliams
