There are so many ways to involve a parish community in its music ministry, and not all of them, of course, include singing. Haven't we all heard the parishioner who says, “I can't join the music ministry - I can't sing!” Luckily for us, music ministry today can include instrumental assistance, including a handbell choir.In many instances, handbell choirs were the only choirs allowed in a parish setting during the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic. It is a choir setting that can be accomplished without projecting the human voice. It can also be done with plenty of social distancing, if space allows. And more than anything, it provides the community of a choir without singing- a perfect option for those who want to use their musical gifts without singing.Handbell choirs are a great option in a music ministry program, but some music ministers may not know where to start: how can I afford handbells? Who do I purchase them from? How do I teach (and direct) a handbell choir? These questions and many more are addressed in my conversation today.Donna Kinsey has served for over 50 years as the pastoral musician for St. Francis De Sales Parish. She has taught music for public and Catholic schools in both Morgantown, West Virginia and Pennsylvania. She is also a handbell clinician and has spearheaded the National Catholic Handbell Festivals with the National Association of Pastoral Musicians.This episode is truly a primer on starting a handbell choir. Not only that, Donna has provided a handout in the “show notes” of this episode for additional tips. If you've ever considered starting a handbell choir, this is the episode for you.

Evan sits down with Walter Isaacson to understand how Doudna’s upbringing in Hilo, Hawaii influenced her trajectory as a gene editing scientist.

Building on the earlier episode The Illusion of Starting Over in Habit Change, this conversation distinguishes between the harmful idea of “starting over” and the positive psychology of seasonal resets.From the Fresh Start Effect and temporal landmarks to the role of the Default Mode Network (DMN) in shaping your self-narrative, you will learn how your brain uses beginnings to motivate you. Molly also shares three practical ways to harness seasonal energy without falling into the trap of believing your progress has been erased.What You'll Learn in This EpisodeWhy the Fresh Start Effect makes new seasons and beginnings feel so motivatingHow the Default Mode Network acts as your brain's internal narrator and helps you mark life chaptersThe difference between seasonal resets and the illusion of “starting over”How neuroplasticity ensures that every attempt, even slips, strengthens your brain's pathwaysThree science-backed strategies to make September resets stickKey Quote“Your brain loves fresh starts because it loves stories.

Can God keep his promises when we fail? It's a major question in the book of Genesis, and even throughout the whole Bible. A popular question about the problem of evil is, “Why do bad things happen to good people?” But in this sermon on Genesis 38, the story of Judah and Tamar, Pastor Luke asks a twist on that question: Can God do good things through bad people? Or, will God keep his good promises when we fail so bad? Pastor Luke looks at the answer to that question under three heads: Our sin seems to endanger God's redemptive purposes; God works through what is sinful and shameful to accomplish his glorious redemptive purposes; we can now boast in our weakness, trusting that our darkest moments are a part of Christ's redemptive story. Part of a series on the book of Genesis. From Sunday Worship, August 31, 2025. ------------------------------- Want to go deeper? Take some time to reflect on the sermon with the following questions: What parts of Judah and Tamar's story are the most shocking to you? How does this chapter challenge the idea that God only works through “clean” situations or morally impressive people? Where in your own life have you assumed “God can't use this”? How does knowing that Jesus willingly entered the family line of Judah and Tamar impact the way you view your own failures? How might you share your story (even the messy parts) in a way that points to Jesus as the hero? Take some time to pray that God would use the weak and messy parts of your life for his glory. Confess your sins and ask for power to live in the hope of God's redeeming grace. ------------------------------- allsoulspca.org All Souls (Urbana, IL) is a part of the Presbyterian Church in America (PCA), a Christian, Reformed denomination with historic and theological roots in the Protestant Reformation.

The first time money breaks something you love, it doesn't sound like coins; it sounds like silence. In this intimate Book Talk, we sit with Heather and Douglas Boneparth—partners in marriage, parenting, and work—who wrote Money Together because they lived the gap between what couples say about money and what they can't bear to say out loud. The episode opens where most advice books don't: inside the messy, human moments—doors closing, calendars clashing, one person carrying the weight of “contribution” without a paycheck to show for it.Heather, a recovering corporate attorney turned money writer, and Douglas, a financial advisor and resident finance meme-lord, built their book as a series of love stories about money. Through real couples' narratives and their own, they show how cultural scripts, childhood histories, and unequal caregiving shape what we spend, save, hide, or fear. The chapters on “Beginnings” and “Contributions” ask harder questions than “What's your budget?”—they ask who taught you what “providing” means, whose time gets valued, and what counts as care.Money Together matters because it replaces lectures with language, and shame with doable conversation starters. It's a book for anyone craving equity at home and intimacy that can survive a bank statement—an invitation to stop performing the relationship and start living it. If you're in a season of transition—new baby, job loss, divorce contemplation, or the slow realization that something has to change—this conversation offers a gentle push and practical prompts to open the door, sit down, and begin again.Learn more about Money Together and buy the book: https://domoneytogether.com/Subscribe to Heather and Doug's Substack: https://www.readthejointaccount.com/
