Podcast appearances and mentions of Gerald Jones

This week we feature multi-instrumentalist Gerald Jones.  Every year in March we provide the Workshop and Camp listings for the year and Gerald has just taking over running Camp Bluegrass in Levelland, Texas.  Camp Bluegrass is one of the oldest bluegrass music camps in the country and Gerald will be leading that camp this year and into the future.  We talk with Gerald about his career playing bluegrass in Texas and what he has in store for Camp Bluegrass 2025.

Amateur sleuth Evan Wycliff is a disillusioned divinity student who is fascinated by astrophysics and given up both. He's returned to his small-town farm roots in Southern Missouri. He is also disappointed in love. His beautiful fiancé was a brilliant Jewish scientist, a defense contractor who was killed in a rocket attack in Syria. These days Evan gets guest preacher gigs and uses his investigative skills as skip tracer for the local car and tractor dealership.In this second novel in the series, Evan counsels a boy who is afflicted with schizophrenia and has been accused of rape. Along with related abuses of the child welfare system, he uncovers a teen trafficking ring run out of a luxury casino resort by a Russian oligarch.“This is literature masquerading as a mystery. Carefully yet powerfully, Gerald Jones creates a small, stunning world in a tiny midwestern town, infusing each character with not just life but wit, charm and occasionally menace. This is the kind of writing one expects from John Irving or Jane Smiley.” - Marvin J. Wolf, author of the Rabbi Ben Mysteries, including A Scribe Dies in Brooklyn

Winner of 7 Book Awards in Literary Fiction - Included in the Prize-Winning Literary Fiction Series from LaPuerta Books and MediaIntrigue on the white sands of the Indian Ocean. From the award-winning author of Clifford's Spiral. A lonely widower from Los Angeles buys a tour package to East Africa on the promise of hookups and parties. What he finds instead are new reasons to live. Aldo Barbieri, a slick Italian tour operator, convinces Harry to join a group of adventuresome “voluntourists.” In a resort town on the Indian Ocean, Harry doesn't find the promised excitement with local ladies. But in the supermarket he meets Esther Mwemba, a demure widow who works as a bookkeeper. The attraction is strong and mutual, but Harry gets worried when he finds out that Esther and Aldo have a history. They introduce him to Victor Skebelsky, rumored to be the meanest man in town. Skebelsky has a plan to convert his grand colonial home and residential compound into a rehab center – as a tax dodge. The scheme calls for Harry to head up the charity. He could live like a wealthy diplomat and it won't cost him a shilling! Harry has to come to terms with questions at the heart of his character: Is corruption a fact of life everywhere? Is all love transactional? Harry Harambee's Kenyan Sundowner is an emotional story of expat intrigue in Africa, reminiscent of The Heart of the Matter by Graham Greene and The Constant Gardener by John le Carré. Praise for Clifford's Spiral (Independent Press Awards 2020 Distinguished Favorite in Literary Fiction) We've seen and noted the comparison of this author by other reviewers to literary giants like Roth and Vonnegut. And we can't disagree. Yet we feel there may be yet another strata for Gerald Everett Jones, who arguably is doing the best work of his career. We predict that he lacks only a mention in the The New York Review of Books or, better yet, Oprah, to become a nationwide best-selling author. Five-plus stars to Clifford's Spiral, a true literary novel if ever there was one. We say in all seriousness that if you only read one novel this year, this should be it. - Don Sloan, Publishers Daily Reviews Preacher Finds a Corpse (NYC Big Book Awards 2020 Winner in Mystery, IPA 2020 Distinguished Favorite in Mystery, Eric Hoffer 2020 Finalist in Mystery) This is literature masquerading as a mystery. Carefully yet powerfully, Gerald Jones creates a small, stunning world in a tiny midwestern town, infusing each character with not just life but wit, charm, and occasionally menace. This is the kind of writing one expects from John Irving or Jane Smiley. - Marvin J. Wolf, author of the Rabbi Ben Mysteries, including A Scribe Dies in Brooklyn

In this week's episode, we learn the story of Gerald Jones. At age 25, Gerald had testicular cancer that was misdiagnosed for a year. By the time the correct diagnoses was made, the cancer had spread and Gerald had a mass on his aorta. He had surgery, chemo and now, over 35 years later, he tells his story of faith and gives great advice and life lessons.  Key Takeaways - Through God's strength, we can do anything. - Life can be frail. We need to appreciate life. - Even when life deals you something you believe is insurmountable, there is always hope. - When dealing with adversity, look inside yourself and see your worth. Understand what you have to offer. - Look at life like this: It's Christmas everyday!   This episode was made possible by: Hand Arendall Harrison Sale  Buy Rod's Book "Get Back Up" >>> Buy Here Learn more about & contact Rod Cate:Rod Cate Website Twitter Facebook LinkedIn

Buy Black Podcast emerged from a dark place but has elevated lives worldwide. Founder Gerald Jones shares his experience as a new podcaster, the challenges he faced and his hope for the next generation of innovators. Website: www.buyblackpodcast Follow: @buyblackpodcast From the founder: My name is Gerald Jones. I'm the voice behind BuyBlack Podcast, and this project is the opening drive toward accomplishing my life's mission. In the summer of 2016 I had just graduated with a Bachelor's in Business Administration from Nebraska Wesleyan University. I had been very successful in my consulting job over the previous six years, but I was hungry to learn about entrepreneurship and start a business of my own. The initial plan was to lean on my expertise in training and performance to start a small consulting firm, but on July 5th, 2016 it became clear that my mission was meant to be much larger than that. The murders of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile affected me more deeply than any previous similar events. In their wake, I knew that whatever project I developed needed to have the goal of contributing to long-term positive change for the Black Community. It took nine months of trial and error before the BuyBlack Podcast idea materialized, but today the mission is clear. Together, you and I will use this platform to reshape our Community, this nation, and the world. Let's Get Started! If you've listened to the show, you know how important I believe it is to define your Mission, articulate your Vision, and abide by a set of written Core Values in order to achieve success in anything. So, here they are for BuyBlack Podcast. If you ever wonder why this project exists, what it's here to accomplish, or if you want to help somebody else "Get It", you can always return to this page for the answers.
