Today's Bible Verse:: "So, because Jesus was doing these things on the Sabbath, the Jewish leaders began to persecute him." — John 5:16 Reflection:John 5:16 shows the growing opposition Jesus faced as He faithfully carried out the Father’s work. After healing a man on the Sabbath, Jesus was criticized by religious leaders who focused more on rules than on the compassion and restoration God intended. “Want to listen without ads?

Today’s Bible Verse: "You turned my wailing into dancing; you removed my sackcloth and clothed me with joy." — Psalm 30:11 Psalm 30:11 is a beautiful picture of God's power to bring restoration and joy after seasons of sorrow. David remembers a time of deep distress and testifies that God did not leave him there. The Lord transformed mourning into celebration and exchanged grief for joy. This episode explores the hope found in God's restoring work. Pain, loss, and hardship are real, and Scripture never asks us to pretend otherwise. Yet Psalm 30 reminds us that sorrow does not have the final word. God is able to heal wounded hearts, renew weary spirits, and bring joy that rises from His presence rather than from changing circumstances. “Want to listen without ads?

Today’s Bible Verse – "Now I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that what has happened to me has actually served to advance the gospel. As a result, it has become clear throughout the whole palace guard and to everyone else that I am in chains for Christ." - Philippians 1:12-13 Ever wondered if your struggles have purpose? In Philippians 1:12–13, the Apostle Paul encourages believers by revealing how his imprisonment—what looked like a setback—was actually part of God’s plan to advance the gospel. This verse reminds us that even in pain or limitation, God is working through us for His glory.

She serves on the Prayer and Healing Ministry at her local church and mentors young women in their walk with Christ. After the heartbreaking loss of her 11-year-old son, Landen, Chaka encountered the life-changing depth of God’s love and compassion—a message she now shares with others navigating grief, healing, and spiritual growth.

“This is a calling. It's bigger than anything in your life as an individual. If you found the thing that you were put on this planet to do, and a lot of people are put on this planet and they don't know, it's such a gift to find it.”Nick Grimshaw and Annie Macmanus speak to global music icon Chaka Khan about her life and career.Born Yvette Marie Stevens in the US city of Chicago in 1953, her big break came at the age of 20 when her band Rufus signed its first record deal. With her powerful vocals and striking stage presence, she quickly caught the public's attention.The band enjoyed commercial and critical success in the years that followed, before Chaka decided to go it alone around a decade later… a decision which transformed her life and career.Worldwide hits such as I'm Every Woman and I Feel For You followed, as well as collaborations with legends like Whitney Houston and Prince, multiple Grammy Awards, and an induction into the Rock ‘n' Roll Hall of Fame.As a new musical telling her story begins its run, the 73-year-old has a lot to reflect on.Thank you to the Sidetracked team for their help in making this programme.

Today’s Bible Verse: “Jesus replied, ‘You may go. Your son will live.’ The man took Jesus at his word and departed.” — John 4:50 John 4:50 highlights a powerful moment of faith. A desperate father came to Jesus seeking healing for his dying son. Instead of going with him, Jesus simply spoke: “Your son will live.” The remarkable part of the story is what follows—the man believed Jesus before seeing any evidence.

Today’s Bible Verse: “Joseph named his firstborn Manasseh and said, ‘It is because God has made me forget all my trouble and all my father’s household.’ The second son he named Ephraim and said, ‘It is because God has made me fruitful in the land of my suffering.’” — Genesis 41:51–52 Genesis 41:51–52 captures a turning point in Joseph’s story. After years of betrayal, loss, and hardship, God brings him into a place of restoration. The names of his sons tell the story—God helped him move beyond the pain of his past and brought fruitfulness out of a season marked by suffering. Interested in creating something new with us!?

The Swap Meet is a market-stall sprawl of finds from across the spectrum of black music, where the logic is curatorial rather than chronological. Pass go at the Chicago soul continuum: Jerry Butler's Gamble & Huff productions sitting near Terry Callier's folk-tinged melancholy and Jill Scott's 21st century soul interpretation - alongside the Philly institution of MFSB's "Love Is the Message," one of those eternal records. Rufus and Chaka comes from their mid-70s peak on ABC, Campbell revisits Jhelisa's "Friendly Pressure" part of the '94 Acid Jazz scene (on Dorado) before switching to Brothers Johnson's jazz-funk alongside Spyro Gyra and The Crusaders. Further afield Gilberto Gil's "Maracatu Atômico" and the Aposento Alto gospel cut sit in the same programme as Tapper Zukie's Kingston pressure, Area Code 615's Nashville session-player funk, and a clutch of contemporary releases demonstrate that the search ain't over; sampling Chuck Bynum, The Mighty Tiny & The Many Few, and Glenn Meinecke. The modern soul pocket is well covered: Odyssey, Two Tons of Fun, Steve Parks, the Dianne Reeves track from her pre-Blue Note years.  That's the blurb - now it's time to listen.

Today’s Bible Verse: “I myself said, ‘How gladly would I treat you like my children and give you a pleasant land, the most beautiful inheritance of any nation.’ I thought you would call me ‘Father’ and not turn away from following me.” - Jeremiah 3:19 Jeremiah 3:19 reveals God’s heart as a loving Father who longs for a close, personal relationship with His people. He desires to bless us, guide us, and give us a rich inheritance—but He also invites us to stay faithful and walk in His ways. This verse reminds us that God’s plans are good, His promises are secure, and His love is constant—even when we drift away. Today, be encouraged to lean into His presence and embrace the identity you have as His beloved child. “Want to listen without ads?

We're revisiting one of our favorite episodes of One Song this week featuring award-winning journalist, author, and podcaster Danyel Smith (Shine Bright: A Very Personal History of Black Women in Pop). Danyel joins Diallo and LUXXURY to break down Chaka Khan's “I'm Every Woman,” the 1978 disco crossover hit that launched her incredibly successful solo career. They discuss Chaka's powerful, dynamic vocal range (just wait until you hear the isolated stems!), how the song became an anthem for female empowerment (among many other things), and Chaka's professional and personal connections with Whitney Houston, who famously covered the song 15 years later for The Bodyguard soundtrack.

Today’s Bible Verse: “For since death came through a man, the resurrection of the dead comes also through a man. For as in Adam all die, so in Christ all will be made alive.” — 1 Corinthians 15:21–22 1 Corinthians 15:21–22 lays out the contrast that defines the gospel: Adam and Christ. Through Adam, sin entered the world, and with it came death. But through Jesus, something greater has come—resurrection and life. “Want to listen without ads?

Today’s Bible Verse: “As they talked and discussed these things with each other, Jesus himself came up and walked along with them; but they were kept from recognizing him.” — Luke 24:15–16 Luke 24:15–16 captures a quiet but powerful resurrection moment. Two disciples are walking away from Jerusalem, confused and discouraged, trying to make sense of everything that had happened. In the middle of their conversation, Jesus joins them—but they don’t recognize Him. “Want to listen without ads?

Today’s Bible Verse: “For I myself am a man under authority, with soldiers under me. I tell this one, ‘Go,’ and he goes; and that one, ‘Come,’ and he comes. I say to my servant, ‘Do this,’ and he does it.” — Matthew 8:9 Matthew 8:9 highlights a powerful moment of faith from an unexpected source.

This is an Encore Presentation of my January 2024 interview with Randy Brecker, one of the greatest trumpet players of this generation. His incredible work runs the gamut from Blood Sweat & Tears, where he was an original member, to The Brecker Brothers, the band that he formed with his brother Michael, to his work with a Who's Who of artists including these one-name wonders: Clapton, Springsteen, Elton, Aretha, Tina, Bette, Chaka, Carly and Jaco. And he's a 6x Grammy winner.My featured song is “Child's Play” from my “lost” 1994 debut album called Miles Behind.
