This interview is a unique one, because the next guest on Citywide Bytes isn't calling from the studio or their home, they're on road, and among the stops will be Boston Calling. Brady Heck and Rebekah Rafferty of the band Holy Roller join me to talk about how it feels to be back on the road after a month away and their upcoming performance at Boston Calling on May 23. We talk about their set and which Boston Calling bands they're looking forward to seeing. Rebekah and Brady share their origin stories of the band, as well as how the style has evolved since their 2019 album, “Holy Roller.” And of course, we go into what's to be expected down the road. Closing out this episode is the single “Flat Track Fire,” from the band's 2024 album, “Good Religion.”

King Manasseh's story (in 2 Chronicles 33) is an example of God's incredible mercy. It is through His divine mercy that we have a chance to constructively transform and renew our hearts and minds. Receive God's mercy. Duplicate God's mercy and give it to others. "Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful."-Luke 6:36 (NIV) "The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, and rich in love.

If you were anything like me, I'm sure you grew up in the church with all the do's and don'ts, rules and regulations that was put on us... well guess what... that's not The Lord's way. HIs way is for us to love one another, show grace towards one another, and live for Him. Don't go so focused on the do's and don'ts that's put before us. Let's be about what God put before us.

A sermon on Micah 6:1-8 by Dr. Calvin Sayles, Senior Pastor of Jonesboro Heights Baptist Church (Sanford NC).
God is the perfect parent even though He does not always give us what we THINK we need and want. He loves us and He wants the best for us. When He doesn't answer our prayers exactly the way we want Him to, it doesn't mean that He does not care. We must trust Him because He knows what is BEST for us. He sees what we cannot. Surrender to His will and you will enjoy a preternatural peace that you never imagined possible. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cherie-hardy/message

Saying that there are blessings in our struggles sounds almost oxymoronic, yet it is true: there are countless benefits to facing challenges. When you see struggle as an integral part of life, you will learn and grow from it. The greatest blessing of struggle is that it forces us to be dependent upon God. We achieve, not in our own limited power and strength, but in our Creator's infinite power and grace. Furthermore, struggle teaches us to be patient, humble, and more compassionate. The good news is that struggles end and when they do, we become examples of “overcoming” for others. Once you accept that struggle is an integral part of life, you can have peace. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/cherie-hardy/message

A few episodes ago, I shared a short story about being what I called misnamed at an event. The organizer called me a singer/songwriter when I was there to speak. Now, part of that setup for me emotionally was I was actually in the process of reinventing. I had been playing music for many, many years. And I had been speaking a little bit at the time but paying attention to what was going on in me, honoring what was happening in me, and honoring the things that people around me were responding to. I recognized that I was in a moment of reinvention. The one side of that story that I told him was that I wanted to be called something else, I wanted to be called an author, I wanted to be called a speaker instead of a singer-songwriter. Well, there's another side to that. Because sometimes that reinvention process, and sometimes those reinvention moments or seasons come with a bit of grief. And that for two reasons. Maybe there was part of who I was before, how I functioned before what I did before, even primarily did before that I have to put down to become what's coming next, that I actually will miss. And I'll grieve that, that I really liked being that singer-songwriter. But the season has changed, and I have to do something else. Maybe it's sad for me to let go of what I thought was what I hoped I would do with those skills or those talents. The other part of it has to do with disappointing people. And you've seen this play out where someone will change their musical style, someone will change up their fashion. And the folks who had been paying attention to them offering their time their money don't like the new version. Everyone's heard the stories about Bob Dylan coming out with an electric guitar, and all the chaos ensued. Following that first electric set, similar things have happened to bands like you to, or Kanye West, even the Beatles, or Stevie Wonder, when the time came for them to honor the existing and ongoing change in them as artists, the people paying attention to them, were disappointed, I'm going to suggest that that kind of risk, that that kind of bravery to reinvent is necessary for a long term career in the arts. And if Seth Godin is right, that art is anything we create that forges a relationship between people. That risk of reinventing and disappointing people is necessary for any good work in the world. I coach artists and ministers, and entrepreneurs. And pretty much everyone on my roster right now is in some reinvention phase. They're looking at the skills, talents, abilities, and time they have had until now and trying to figure out what to do with them next. And some of the deepest grief I'm experiencing is from folks who have been trying to practice religion publicly, trying to lead spiritually in public, and are having to reinvent that particular form of art, not only because of the level of disappointment they experienced by their tribes, persons but also because among the people that I know who lead spiritually, it is a really deeply personal expression. Titles like pastor or minister get rooted in people's hearts, souls, minds, skin. It is who you are, and changing the title, the function of that job, or work becomes a challenge to that person's identity. If I do this differently, maybe I'm not who I used to be. And that can be scary. Which takes me back to that moment. At that conference, the person up front called me a singer-songwriter instead of an author. The reality was at the core of things; I'm neither one of those things. Those are expressions. I'm not an author. I do write books. I'm not a singer/songwriter. I do write songs, and I sing them. I'm an artist, which is to say, I don't make music because music needs to be made. And I don't write books because books need to be made. I make music. And I write books to forge a relationship between people, between myself and people, between myself and myself at times, between people and the God that holds all things together. So among the religious and those who lead in religious settings, perhaps words like pastor or minister, or even church, become traps. Because those words come in certain shapes. A pastor does this looks like this works these hours. Church happens at this time on this day in this way. And when the season comes, that calls on us to be brave. And to take the risk to do and be and act differently. We have to let go of what was to make room for what is coming and what is new. And yes, that comes with grief. Yes, that comes with fear. But we didn't get into the ministry work of pastoring and the church because we wanted to be ministers and pastors and have churches. In the same way that an artist doesn't get into music, painting, or storytelling, because they want to just paint and just tell stories and make music. It's about connection. It's about people. It's about love. It's about how do I best communicate reality? What's going on in me? Honor, the truth. Honor, the beauty, honor the goodness going on in me. How do I best communicate that? And how do I best set up a guide, help assist champion and celebrate that same work in the lives of others? It is now and has been for a while, a season at a time of reinvention for religion in America. Things are going to be different. And the choice on the table in front of us is to either honor the change that is already happening in us as persons or honor the desire. Those around us for something new/ something different, or we will hold to those old patterns and miss the moment in fear of our own grief.
Our Heavenly Father unconditionally loves you. When you talk to Him, He empathetically listens. However, if you treat Him like a "wish master", you will never have peace and joy. When He answers, "yes", "no", or "not now", it is for your good and His glory. The key to contentment (not complacency) is making sure your heart aligns with His will for you. He cares and even though He can supernaturally grant something you want, there are things in the natural that handling those blessings require. Are you sure that you can manage them?

Season 3, Episode 9 - This season, Eric and Joel bring one (fairly) current topic each and wonder together what our response to these issues might be from our perspectives of faith. Joel's issue - Is the task of clergy, religion, theology to make the universal specific, or to stretch the specific toward the universal? If religion stays close to the context of the people, it will be comfortable but not point to a universal God. If religion doesn't fully enter the specific context of people, they will never sense the relevance that can invite them toward the universal. Is the point of religious community to "bind" us together, or to "bridge" us toward the wider mysteries of God and God's creation?

Is the role of clergy or congregation to help people do religion well? What does participation or membership in a religious community require of us, and what does it give back to us, or to the world through us? What's the connection between the practices of our religion and our religious identity?
