Dr. Heath Thomas grow up as a pastor's kid, thought he'd be an English teacher but ended up  specializing in Hebrew Poetry. He is now the president of Oklahoma Baptist University and somehow found time to co-write a book with Craig Bartholomew titled the Minor Prophets: A Theological Introduction.  We talk about what the role of the prophet is, the content of their messages, and why they seem so angry all  of the time. Read more about Dr. Heath Thomas HEREFind the book HEREContact Cyndi Parker through Narrative of Place.Join Cyndi Parker's  Patreon Team!

In today's episode, Dr. Benjamin Quinn is joined by Dr. Craig Bartholomew of the Kirby Laing Centre. He shares his testimony, which is directly related to the intersection of faith and public life. Scripture is at the heart of cultural engagement, he argues. Plus, he explains God's view of culture and how the fall has affected cultural structures. They then discuss the rise of secularism – and how Christians must be the holders of history. Also, we want to answer your questions in an upcoming episode!

NESTE EPISÓDIO - O apartheid foi um regime de segregação racial implementado como política oficial de estado em 1948 e que seguiu em vigor até 1994. - "Cold Fact" é o primeiro álbum de Rodríguez, lançado em 1970. - "Coming From Reality", o segundo álbum de Rodríguez, foi lançado em 1971. - O trecho "obrigado pela atenção" ("thanks for your time") está na música "Forget It", do álbum "Cold Fact". - Steve Biko, confesso fã da música de Rodríguez, foi um importante ativista anti-apartheid, fundador da Organização dos Estudantes Sul-Africanos (SASO). Foi preso pelo governo diversas vezes até ser espancado até a morte por policiais em 1977, aos 30 anos de idade. - O blues contra o sistema de Rodríguez chama-se "This Is Not a Song, It's an Outburst: Or, the Establishment Blues" ("Isto não é uma música, é um desabafo: ou, o blues do sistema"), do álbum "Cold Fact". - A segregação racial nos Estados Unidos seguiu como uma política de estado até a aprovação da Lei dos Direitos Civis de 1964 e da Lei do Direito ao Voto em 1965. - Stephen "Sugar" Segerman e Craig Bartholomew foram os responsáveis, no final dos anos 90, por começar uma investigação para descobrir quem era Rodríguez. - Logo após a morte de Elvis Presley em 1977 começam a surgir teorias da conspiração sobre o que supostamente seria sua real condição e paradeiro: Elvis teria simulado sua morte para viver em paz em algum outro lugar. A frase "Elvis não morreu" tornou-se muito presente na cultura popular e até hoje existem "Elvis Sighting Societies", grupos de pessoas que pesquisam supostos avistamentos de Elvis ao redor do mundo. - A cidade de Detroit tornou-se, no início do século XX, o maior polo mundial de produção de automóveis e em 1920 chegou a ser a quarta maior cidade dos Estados Unidos. A partir dos anos 70 a cidade entrou em recessão por conta da competição com montadoras de automóveis estrangeiras e em 2013 tornou-se a primeira cidade dos Estados Unidos a declarar falência. - "Sugar Man", a música que virou o apelido de Stephen Segerman, é a primeira do álbum "Cold Fact". - A profética música de Rodríguez sobre perder o emprego duas semanas antes do Natal é, curiosamente, também sua última música: chamada "Cause", é ela que fecha seu derradeiro álbum, "Coming From Reality". - "Dead Men Don't Tour", documentário de 1998 sobre a ida de Rodríguez à África do Sul, pode ser assistido na íntegra no YouTube. - "Procurando Sugar Man" ("Searching for Sugar Man"), de 2012, pode ser alugado para assistir aqui. ...

In this episode, Caleb discusses the topic of theological interpretation of Scripture with Daniel Treier (PhD, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) professor of theology at Wheaton College. The theological interpretation of Scripture (TIS) is not so much a method, but a mode of interpretation; not a neatly defined set of steps, but a set of concerns. In this discussion, Caleb and Dan focus on the three of the central and somewhat defining concerns that animate most advocates of TIS: reaction, retrieval, and rules.

We know about the Bible. We may know some Bible stories, or maybe we've even read large portions for ourselves. But what it's really all about? How do all the different pieces fit together? Without a sense of the big story the Bible is telling, we'll miss out on the good news God has for us. In The 30-Minute Bible, experienced Bible teachers Craig Bartholomew and Paige Vanosky present the story of Scripture in thirty short readings, each designed to take about half an hour. Each includes a passage from the Bible and a short chapter explaining how the passage fits into the Bible's wider narrative. Written in straightforward and clear language, the readings are accompanied by Brother Martin Erspamer's lovely illustrations. Discover the timeless story of the Bible—in thirty minutes a day for thirty days. If you think the Bible is overwhelming. Almost anyone who has tried to read the Bible from the beginning will agree that it can be overwhelming. From the very first pages a myriad of questions arise, and though the most determined readers continue on, it is likely they soon become frustrated and return the book to the shelf. If you have questions. Many readers wonder why the Bible has remained a valuable book to so many over thousands of years. Others wonder how familiar Bible stories fit together. Still others want to know the truth about God and Jesus, or about their purpose in life. Can an easily accessible source be found? The 30-Minute Bible may be for you. Experienced Bible teachers Craig Bartholomew and Paige Vanosky open readers up to the story found within the Bible, providing just enough understanding that even the most novice readers can make sense of it. By reading this summary of the Bible on your own, or together with friends, the answers to your many questions will begin to emerge. These questions are big - about the Bible, God, Jesus and life, and so are the answers. They cannot be completely answered overnight. But this book is a wonderful way to begin your journey into discovering answers and to becoming familiar with the Bible, enabling you to read enjoy reading the Bible on your own. Just what is found in the Bible? Many know the Bible as literature, as a place to discover rules for living, or as a place to learn about God and his word to us. It is also known as the story of Jesus, how he lived his life and the impact he made on those around him. There are many ways to describe the Bible and its meaning to those who treasure it. All of these and many more are true. One of the most unknown, surprising ways to describe the Bible is as a story of our world - from creation to to the end of the world as we know it. Along the way the story follows one branch of a family tree leading from Adam and Eve to Jesus, almost all written by or about the main characters in the story. But what makes this story particularly fascinating is that although it was written by over 40 authors over a period of about 1400 years, there are remarkably consistent themes throughout. You will discover this and so much more in reading The 30-Minute Bible. When you finish this book, you will likely understand why the Bible is often called “the greatest story ever told”! Paige P. Vanosky is a small group leader and community volunteer. The 30-Minute Bible grew out of her own teaching ministry. She lives in Rancho Santa Fe, California.Craig G. Bartholomew is director of the Kirby Laing Centre for Public Theology in Cambridge, UK. He has written and edited numerous books, including Contours of the Kuyperian Tradition, Introducing Biblical Hermeneutics, Beyond the Modern Age (with Bob Goudzwaard), The Drama of Scripture (with Michael Goheen), The Doctrine of Creation (with Bruce Ashford), and a commentary on Ecclesiastes.

Nathan and Karen talk a theology of placemaking with Dr. Craig Bartholomew, the Director of the Kirby Laing Center, and Dr. David Larsen, a Kirby Laing Senior Research Fellow. Turns out placemaking is super important, as we form places but places also form us for better or worse.

This week, we explore the common dichotomy of conservative/liberal. These terms are prominent in our society, and it is important to address how they impact Christians. Should we use the terms? Is one better than the other? How can we relate to them? We unpack these questions and more in this episode.

In this episode of How to Read the Bible, Nate Claiborne and Joshua Kessler discuss the authorship, context, structure, and interpretation of the book of Ecclesiastes.For additional resources, the chapter on Ecclesiastes in A Biblical-Theological Introduction to the Old Testament: The Gospel Promised is helpful for understanding the structure of the book. An accessible commentary on Job is John Walton’s volume in the NIV Application Commentary series. Also useful is Craig Bartholomew's volume in the Baker Commentary on the Old Testament Wisdom and Psalms series. There are actually two Bible Project videos on Job.

For Advent in 2019 we walked through the metanarrative of scripture; creation, fall, redemption, and restoration. We decided to re-air this series this year to go long with our new Biblical Theology Advent Cards! We created these cards to guide families through the story of scripture focusing on God the Son and His role from creation all the way to restoration. There are three cards for each week of advent. Each card will prompt you to read a main truth, open your Bible to read that day's passage(s), pray, and discuss or complete an activity. On the back of each card is part of a puzzle which, by Christmas, will create a beautiful reminder of the reason for the season. On episode 81 of the Adorned Podcast we discuss creation. The Son did not just suddenly appear at His incarnation, but has always been. We see this through the trinitarian language used way back in Genesis! We would love for you to listen in as we discuss what this means for us during the Christmas season. Quotes: “The Bible provides us with the basic story that we need in order to understand our world and to live in it as God’s people” -The Drama of Scripture “Heresy is destructive, not just for your mind, but for your life.” -J.T. English “Christmas is not God's second plan. Before he created the world, God determined to save sinners through the blood of his own Son. The grand narrative of the Bible points to this essential truth -- God determined to bring glory to himself through the salvation of a people redeemed and purchased by his own Son, the Christ. Bethlehem and Calvary were essential parts of God's plan from the beginning, before the cosmos was brought into being as the Son obeyed the will of the Father in creation.” -Al Mohler Resources: Biblical Theology Advent Cards Unwrapping the Greatest Gift by Ann Voskamp The Garden, the Curtain, and the Cross by Carl Laferton The Drama of Scripture by Craig Bartholomew and Michael Goheen Gospel Fluency by Jeff Vanderstelt Where does the Story of Christmas Begin? By Al Mohler ESV Study Bible *The beautiful music heard on today’s episode is by Katie Cobbs*

Apart from the doctrine of God, no doctrine is as comprehensive as that of creation. Join us as we sit down with the Rev. Dr. Craig Bartholomew as we discuss creation and how it is woven throughout the entire fabric of Christian theology. It goes to the deepest roots of reality and leaves no area of life untouched. Across the centuries, however, the doctrine of creation has often been eclipsed or threatened by various forms of gnosticism. Yet if Christians are to rise to current challenges related to public theology and ethics, we must regain a robust, biblical doctrine of creation. “Who would have thought that dropping your kids off at school is a moment of glory?” -Craig Bartholomew

Efter at have kommet ned igen fra min vin og gin-gennemvædet eufori efter at have modtaget den fantastiske nyhed om, at jeg officielt er kræftfri (yay!), fik jeg muligheden for at sludre med Stephen 'Sugar' Segerman, inspirationen bag Oscar-prisvindende dokumentarfilm Searching for Sugar Man. Hvis du ikke har set dokumentaren endnu (hvor har du gemt dig?), så se lige traileren, så du kan være ajour med hvad denne episode handler om. Gør det nu. Jeg venter her imens.   Færdig? Okay, lad os så komme igen. Sugarer en af ​​hovedpersonerne i dokumentaren. Han ejer en vinyl pladebutik i Cape Town kaldet Mabu Vinyl. Butikken er et ikonisk mødested for byens kunst- og musikscene og ligger lige rundt om hjørnet fra, hvor jeg bor. Så jeg gik indenfor, købte en t-shirt og bad spurgte om det var muligt at møde Stephen til et interview. Et par dage senere modtog jeg et opkald fra manden selv, og da et par dage senere ringede jeg på dørklokken i hans hjem her i Cape Town. Han åbnede døren og hilste mig velkommen med et varmt smil – og selvfølgelig en klassisk sydafrikansk ‘howzit’. ”Jeg er Sugar,” sagde han, som om jeg ikke allerede vidste (jeg har set dokumentaren flere gange, end jeg vil indrømme). Sugar fik sit kaldenavn fra hans tid i militæret, da hans venner foretrak at kalde ham Sugarman i stedet for Segerman – og hurtigt blev det til bare ”Sugar”. Henvisningen kommer fra sangen 'Sugarman' et af de største hits fra en utrolig populær musiker i Sydafrika på det tidspunkt – den amerikanske singer-songwriter Rodriguez.   DE KOLDE FAKTA Sixto Rodriguez var en bemærkelsesværdig musiker fra Detroit, USA. Selvom han var yderst dygtig, var hans musikkarriere en kæmpe skuffelse i USA, hvor hans første album Cold Fact (1970) kun solgte en håndfuld kopier. Men ved en tilfældighed eller ”guddommelig indblanding” fandt bootleg-kopier af Cold Fact hele vejen til Afrika i starten af 70'ere, hvilket resulterede i en massiv fanbase i Sydafrika. Cold Fact LP’en var en fast del af de fleste sydafrikanske pladesamlinger på det tidspunkt, og sangeren var mere populær end The Beatles og The Rolling Stones i Sydafrika. Han anede det bare ikke selv. Og hans sydafrikanske fans vidste heller ikke meget om stjernen. Den eneste information, som de kunne få om Rodriguez, var fra musikken på Cold Fact. Musikerens identitet var et mysterium, og så begyndte rygter og fortællinger at svirre om ham, og al den mystik var bare med til at gøre ham endnu mere populær i landet. Det kan lyde underligt, men du skal huske på, at det var før internet og at Sydafrika på det tidspunkt var meget isoleret under ​​Apartheid. Landet var isoleret fra omverdenen gennem handelstakster og embargoer. Så kun meget lidt information kom ind og ud af landet. Sugar var, som enhver sydafrikaner i den tid, en kæmpe Rodriguez-fan og forsøgte at finde ud af mere om sangeren, blandt andet ved at kigge efter skjulte beskeder og geografiske referencer i teksterne til sangene. For at gøre lang og fascinerende 30-årig historie kort – som bliver beskrevet så fantastisk i dokumentaren, så kom Sugar og journalisten Craig Bartholomew til sidst på sporet af Rodriguez i Detroit. De kunne fortælle ham, at han var en kæmpe berømthed i Sydafrika. Sixto Rodriguez havde boet i det samme lille hus i Detroit hele tiden og arbejdet som bygningsarbejder meget en meget lille indkomst. Selvom han solgte hundreder af tusinder af plader – måske millioner – i et andet land, så han aldrig en krone af de penge. I filmen antydes det kraftigt, at nogen ved hans pladeselskab ”glemte” at sende nogle af de penge, der kom fra Sydafrika, videre til Rodriguez, så han ikke fik det stjernestatus-liv, han fortjente. Da han blev fyret fra pladeselskabet i 1971, stoppede han sin musikalske karriere. Efter år med at prøve at finde ham, lykkedes det at få Rodriguez og hans familie til Sydafrika, hvor han spillede 6 udsolgte shows i arenaer fyldt med jublende fans – noget sangeren aldrig havde oplevet før. Det er en absolut hjertevarm historie, der stadig giver mig kulderystelser – og den er langt fra forbi.   MUSIK-DETEKTIVER Lad os gå tilbage til begyndelsen af ​​historien om, hvordan Sugar fik muligheden for at møde hans idol. Da Rodriguez' musik kunne høres fra enhver stue i Sydafrika, troede alle hans fans, at han var lige så berømt i sit hjemland, som han var i Sydafrika. Og hvorfor ikke? Når alt kommer til alt, var hans talent ubestrideligt, hans tekster fantastiske og politiske, og han blev betragtet som en værdig rival til Bob Dylan og Simon og Garfunkel. Hans navn var omgivet af mysterium på grund af manglende information om kunstneren og mange mennesker troede, at han var død. Nogle sagde, at han skød sig selv på scenen i en underjordisk bar i Moskva, andre, at han havde sat ild på sig selv og brændt ihjel før et publikum et andet sted, eller at han var død af en overdosis. Andre rygter sagde, at han var i live, men i en mental institution, en anden om, at han sad i fængsel for at have myrdet sin kæreste. Efter at apartheid slutter i midten af ​​90'erne, slår Sugar sig sammen med journalisten Craig Bartholomew om at finde ud af sandheden og løse mysteriet om den gådefulde sanger, især hvem han var, og hvordan han døde. Det startede, da Rodriguez-eksperten Sugar, blev bedt om at skrive et par linjer til bookletten, da det sydafrikanske pladeselskab udgav Rodriguez' andet album, Coming from Reality (1971) på CD for første gang. I den anden ende af landet, i Johannesburg, så journalisten Craig Bartholomew dette som en invitation til at deltage i søgningen efter den Rodriguez. Det var ikke let, og efter næsten to års frustration og blindgyde gav de næsten op. Men så fik de et gennembrud. Deres detektivarbejde førte dem til sidst til Detroit, Michigan og til sidst til Mike Theodore, der producerede ​​Rodriguez' Cold Fact LP. Craig formåede at få ham i telefonen, hvor han fik at vide, at Rodriguez faktisk stadig var i live og levede et tilbagetrukket liv i Detroit. Han havde arbejdet som bygningsarbejder i over 25 år siden den dag, han blev droppet fra sit pladeselskab. Et år senere i 1998, efter de havde talt med Rodriguez og fortalt ham om sin bemærkelsesværdige historie, fløj Sugar og Craig Rodriguez og hans døtre til Sydafrika, hvor han spillede 6 udsolgte shows for flere tusinde måbende fans, der så en død mand komme til live. Men stadig var der ikke mange mennesker uden for Sydafrika hørt om Rodriguez og hans bemærkelsesværdige historie. Det var indtil den svenske filmskaber Malik Bendjelloul hørte historien fra Sugar.   BRING FARVERNE TILBAGE TIL MIN DRØM Det tog Bendjelloul tæt på 5 års hårdt arbejde – næsten uden budget – at lave filmen. Den blev udgivet i januar 2012, og et år efter hørte jeg selv historien fra min ven Toby under mit første besøg i Cape Town. Jeg fik også at vide, at Rodriguez var på vej tilbage for at spille flere shows i Sydafrika, mens jeg boede i Cape Town. Jeg ville være i Cape Town på samme tid som Rodriguez, så jeg ville naturligvis se om jeg kunne få fingrene i en billet. Jeg var utrolig heldig, at alle koncerterne var udsolgt så hurtigt, for de havde besluttet at lave en ekstra koncert og starte salget netop i det øjeblik jeg gik på nettet. Jeg slog straks til og købte den bedste billet, jeg kunne finde, og det lykkedes mig at sikre mig en billet i midten af første række. Mit sæde var ”A1”. Selvom jeg på dette tidspunkt endnu ikke havde hørt en eneste sang fra manden. Dagen efter gik jeg ned i en pladebutik og købte CD’en og filmen på DVD (ja, det var i 2013 – og dengang, hvor vi faktisk købte CD'er og DVD'er). Og herefter havde jeg stort set albummet til at køre på repeat, så jeg kunne forberede mig. Og jeg blev grebet af musikken. Det er virkelig et fantastisk album. Rodriguez er en ægte kunstner, og hvis du endnu ikke har oplevet musikken, opfordrer jeg dig til at gøre dig selv en tjeneste og gøre det. Du vil ikke fortryde det. Er du spændt på at høre, hvordan det var at være med til koncerten, hvor jeg hørte Rodriguez spille live for første gang på denne tourné? Så gå ikke glip af del 2, som kommer i morgen.   LINKS: Radiovagabond er produceret af Radioguru.

After coming down from my wine and gin-soaked euphoria after receiving the amazing news that I am officially cancer-free (yay!), I got the opportunity to chat with Stephen ‘Sugar' Segerman, the inspiration behind the Academy Award-winning documentary Searching for Sugarman. If you haven't seen the documentary yet (where have you been hiding?) then take a quick look at the trailer so you can be up-to-date with what this episode is all about. Go on, I'll wait. Finished? Alright, let's jump into it! Sugar is one of the main characters in the documentary. He owns a vintage record store in Cape Town called Mabu Vinyl, an iconic meeting spot for the city's art and music scene. The store is just around the corner from where I am staying, so the other day I walked in, bought a T-shirt, and asked to interview Sugar. A few days later I received a call from the man himself and soon I was ringing the doorbell of his home, eager to hear more from the amateur music detective. He opened the door and welcomed me in with a warm smile and, of course, a classic South African ‘howzit!'. “I'm Sugar,” he said, as if I didn't already know (I have watched the documentary more times than I care to admit). Sugar got his nickname from his army days when his friends preferred to call him Sugarman instead of Segerman, and it soon became Sugar for short. The reference comes from the song ‘Sugarman' by the American singer-songwriter Rodriguez, an incredibly popular music artist in South Africa at the time.   THE COLD HARD FACTS Sixto Rodriguez is a remarkable musician hailing from Detroit, Michigan USA. Although immensely gifted, his music career had a disappointing start in the US, with his first album Cold Fact (1970) selling only a handful of copies. However, by chance or divine meddling, bootleg copies of Cold Fact started making their way to African shores in the early 70s which resulted in a massive fanbase in South Africa, unbeknownst to the singer. The Cold Fact LP was a fixture in most South African's record collection, and the singer was more popular than The Beatles and The Rolling Stones in South Africa. However, the only information South Africans could get regarding Rodriguez was from the Cold Fact LP. The musician's identity was a mystery, and so rumours and tales started surfacing about his possible whereabouts, furthering his popularity and mysticism in the country. It's important to consider that during this time South Africa was in the height of the Apartheid regime, which saw the country being isolated from the world through trade tariffs and embargos, and the like. So very little information about the goings-on of the rest of the world trickled into the South African public's radar. Sugar, like every South African in the 70s, was a massive Rodriguez fan and so attempted to find out more about the singer, finding hidden messages and geographical references in the lyrics of his songs. To cut a long and fascinating 30-year story short – which forms the basis for the documentary – Sugar eventually tracked down Rodriguez in Detroit, almost penniless working in construction, and informed him of his celebrity in South Africa. The singer-songwriter had been toiling in obscurity due to his record label's inability and lack of desire to promote the artist as he deserved to be. Add to this a fair bit of thuggish dishonesty and limitless greed by record labels in the US, and the result was a musical genius relegated to a lowly construction worker, deprived of a life of stardom he so desperately deserved. Rodriguez quit his musical career in 1971 and even though he sold hundreds of thousands of records – maybe millions – in another country, he never saw a dime of that money. After years trying to track him down, Sugar and his accomplices managed to fly Rodriguez and his family over to South Africa where he played 6 sold-out shows to arenas filled with cheering fans - something the singer had never experienced before. It's an absolutely heartwarming story that still gives me chills - and it is far from over.   MUSICAL DETECTIVES  Let's go back to the beginning of the story of how Sugar eventually got the opportunity to meet his idol. When Rodriguez's music could be heard from every living room in 1970's South Africa, his fans believed he was just as famous in his home country as he was in South Africa. And why not? After all, his talent was undeniable, his lyrics layered and politically poignant, and he was seen as a worthy rival to the likes of Bob Dylan and Simon and Garfunkel. Surrounded by mystery due to lack of information about the artist, many people believed that he was dead. Some said he shot himself on stage in an underground bar in Moscow, others that he'd set himself alight and burned to death before an audience someplace else, or he died of a drug overdose. Some rumours said that he was alive but in a mental institution, another that he was in jail for murdering his girlfriend. The mystery grew rampant. After Apartheid ends in the mid-'90s, Sugar teamed up with journalist Craig Bartholomew to find out the truth and solve the mystery about the enigmatic muso, particularly who he was and how he died. It started when Sugar, the Rodriguez expert, was asked to co-write the liner notes for the booklet when the South African record company released Rodriguez's second album, Coming from Reality (1971) on CD for the first time. On the other side of the country, in Johannesburg, Craig Bartholomew saw this as an invitation to join the search for the elusive singer-songwriter. It was not easy, as the pair explained, and after nearly two years of frustration and dead ends they nearly gave up. But then they had a breakthrough. Their detective work finally led to Detroit, Michigan and eventually to Mike Theodore, the producer of Rodriguez's Cold Fact LP. Craig managed to get him on the phone where he informed the elated journalist that Rodriguez was in fact still alive and well, sane, not suffering from burns, living a quiet life in Detroit. He had been working in construction for over 25 years since the day he was dropped from his record label. One year later in 1998, after eventually tracking down his number and getting to speak to Rodriguez himself on the telephone telling him about his remarkable story, Sugar and Craig flew Rodriguez and his daughters to South Africa to perform 6 sold-out shows for adoring local fans. But still, not many people outside of South Africa had heard about Rodriguez and his remarkable story of stolen fame. That was until Swedish filmmaker Malik Bendjelloul heard the story from Sugar.   BRING BACK THE COLOURS TO MY DREAM It took Bendjelloul close to 5 years of hard work with hardly any budget to finish the film. It was released in January 2012, one year after I myself heard the story from my friend Toby during my first visit to Cape Town. While I was living in Cape Town my friend told me that Rodriguez was on his way back to perform more shows in South Africa. I couldn't actually believe how I could be so lucky to be in Cape Town at the same time as Rodriguez. My friends quickly told me that the tickets to his shows would definitely be sold out, but my stubborn Danish charm permitted me to dig deeper to source a ticket. After scouring the internet I eventually found newly-released tickets for an additional show due to the high demand. I jumped to buy the tickets - but not just any ticket. I managed to secure the front row, center. My seat was A1. I couldn't believe my luck. Even though at this stage, I hadn't heard a single song from the man, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to experience it. After I bought the ticket to the concert, I went down to a record shop and bought the album and the movie on DVD (yes, this was in 2013 and the time where we actually bought CD's and DVDs!). And then I basically had the album playing on repeat in order for me to prepare myself. And his music was everything I expected and hoped for, and more. Rodriguez is a true artist, and if you have yet to experience his musical mastery then I urge you to do yourself a favour and do so. You won't regret it.  Are you eager to hear what it was like to be at that concert hearing Rodriguez play live for the first time? Then you don't want to miss part 2.

For Advent this year we decided to walk through the metanarrative of scripture; creation, fall, redemption, and restoration. We are excited to spend some time looking at how each part points to Christmas and what it means practically as we anticipate and celebrate the birth of Jesus. On episode 81 of the Adorned Podcast we discuss creation. The Son did not just suddenly appear at His incarnation, but has always been. We see this through the trinitarian language used way back in Genesis! We would love for you to listen in as we discuss what this means for us during the Christmas season. Quotes: “Advent is traditionally the four Sundays leading up to Christmas and means “coming.”” “How cool is it that God sent His Son, The Light of the World, in the darkest time of the year and we have that to celebrate.” “We have to believe that God will be faithful to bring to completion what He has promised.” “We can live with the expectation that God will do what He said He’s going to do.” “Advent is not about doing a specific thing, but it’s about the hope and the waiting in this season and knowing that God will do what He said He’s going to do through the work of Jesus.” “The Bible provides us with the basic story that we need in order to understand our world and to live in it as God’s people” -The Drama of Scripture “Heresy is destructive, not just for your mind, but for your life.” -J.T. English “Christmas is not God's second plan. Before he created the world, God determined to save sinners through the blood of his own Son. The grand narrative of the Bible points to this essential truth -- God determined to bring glory to himself through the salvation of a people redeemed and purchased by his own Son, the Christ. Bethlehem and Calvary were essential parts of God's plan from the beginning, before the cosmos was brought into being as the Son obeyed the will of the Father in creation.” -Al Mohler Resources: Unwrapping the Greatest Gift by Ann Voskamp The Garden, the Curtain, and the Cross by Carl Laferton The Drama of Scripture by Craig Bartholomew and Michael Goheen Gospel Fluency by Jeff Vanderstelt Where does the Story of Christmas Begin?

For the next few weeks, pundits are going to love discussing the voting patterns of suburban voters, urban voters, rural voters. But all of that analysis is going to be inherently limited unless it takes into account that those aren't just the places we vote—they also might be the reasons we vote the way we do. Author and theologian Craig Bartholomew and pastor William McGee help us get a fuller understanding of our relationships to our towns.

Rev.Alex Mandura -  Genesis 9:8-17. Noah and The Flood. For many of us, we know the story, we learned about it in Sunday School. And yet for others they know it only from the people who are debating the historical facts in the public square. In both these cases, the purpose for telling this ancient story gets submerged. Craig Bartholomew wrote “A major feature of any story is its central conflict, the thing that goes wrong and needs to be fixed.” The Flood story is about the relationship and conflict between God and creation. The climax involves a deluge of water never encountered before and a boat full of animals. The resolution; well, that’s the plot twist in our story.
