POPULARITY
In a world where it is all about “me and what I can get out of something”, we find in our life in Christ some thing contrary to this belief - submission to a higher authority, and a surrender to His will and not your own. It's in this surrender that you can be entrusted with greater influence and authority because you have learned that it is not for selfish gain but for the benefit of others in His Kingdom. Join us today as we learn what it means to be In The Service of the King.

Today I had the chance to sit down with friend and former colleague WIremu Moffitt. A year in the making- this was one of the most exciting interviews I have ever done and I hope that you, the listener and viewer, get as much from it as I did. Watching his military journey from a Sergeant in 1NZSAS Group back when we met, to RSM 1NZSAS Gp, and now on to his current role- Sergeant Major of New Zealand Army - has been a pleasure. We spoke about his military journey and beginnings and his drive to join the SAS and how he got there. We spoke about the support team he has around him, his wife and family, and how these and the teams he builds have allowed him to be able to perform at the very highest military and personal levels. Side note- I have never heard of a wife called a "Primary" before , but I would expect nothing less from the consummate professional operator that Wiremu truly is. We spoke about females in the Special Forces and in combat platoons, and debated the need for a different type of soldier in the modern world, along with the difficulties of recruiting when it comes to current physicality, throwing, jumping, etc. We also spoke about the modernizing of Army and Defence's approach to recovery, supplementation and performance. We went on to chat about Mental health and wellbeing and I was very happy and surprised to hear the answers he gave and shared. Overall, I was amazed at how Mu manages his workload, spirituality, whanau, physicality and specifically how this correlated with many high ranking Special Forces Veterans I have spoken with also. To hear the successful strategies being employed by a serving soldier- in fact the highest ranking soldier in the New Zealand Army- was insightful, inspirational and gives me great hope for future warfighters joining the team that Mu is helping to create.

Brooklyn’s The Big Net joins Tom for Episode 159 of Look At My Records! Their brand new record, In The Service of Song, dropped earlier this month on the Brooklyn label Marbled Arm. The album’s title serves as a guiding principle for the writing and recording process behind the songs on the record, as the trio of Kevin Copeland, Andrew Emge, and Logan Miley, focused on “not adding any instruments or sounds that were unnecessary,” instead providing only what the song absolutely needs. Recorded live to tape over the course of two days with minimal overdubs at Copeland’s childhood home, the deeply personal record resonates through its diaristic lyrics and hauntingly sparse instrumentation. During our interview, we chatted about the project’s origins, the experience of recording in Copeland’s childhood home in Connecticut, the meaning behind the phrase “In The Service of Song” and much more. This episode features records from Broken Social Scene, The Everly Brothers, Eric B. & Rakim, Adrianne Lenker, and The Beach Boys. Follow along with the band’s record picks via the official Spotify playlist for Episode 159!In The Service of Song is out now via Marbled Arm. You can purchase a copy on limited edition Cyan Blue Marbled vinyl via Bandcamp. The album is also available on all streaming platforms. Keep up with the band by following them on Instagram and liking them on Facebook.

I have two questions for you? First, if you wanted your customers to love you, what would you do? Would you call them more? Improve your service? Introduce them to others? Second, if you wanted your employees to love you what would you do? Get to know them at a personal level? Promote them? Pay them more? Help them advance in their career? In this episode of Helping Sells Radio, I talked to Steve Farber about his new book, Love is Just Damn Good Business: Do What You Love, In The Service of People, Who Love What You Do. Your first reaction might be a little like mine, "Customer love? Really?" Until you think about the questions above. That changes things. Those questions take a touchy feely topic and provides a way to think about operationalizing love as a business process. Steve shares several stories that demonstrating how much a business can improve results using love as a discipline.

Brian Martin – Acts 14:19-28 The post In The Service of God appeared first on Sonship Bay Ridge.
Today at my church they are having a children's program. There is only one problem. We only have one child, and “Child's Program” doesn't roll off the tongue. Why would you have a children's program when you only have one? The only reason I can come to is that we've always done it that way. The church I go to came from a split church. It was awesome. We had probably 30 people in the choir. The music was awesome. The culture was awesome. That was probably close to 20 years ago. There is only one problem. The church has not changed at all. Not one single bit. If you had a bulletin from 1998 and compared it to today's the only thing that changes is the pastor. When the choir got smaller due to this thing called Natural Causes that keeps making the congregation smaller, the director decided we would sing Handel's Messiah. This is a very hard piece of music to sing. Looking back, we shouldn't have done it. We didn't have the people. We didn't have the talent. Typically people in a choir can sing. They can actually sing different parts. Over the years, this has become less and less the case. Last week I sang next to a lovely older man who didn't want the music. He just wanted the words. As I was the sound person at the time, I told them how I could feed a little bit of the demo singers into the monitor to keep us on track. I never thought we would perform this way. Flash forward 15 years and now the voices are so loud, for me its embarrassing. I didn't even really practice my parts this year because there was no point? I could actually sit there and mouth the words. Also when you can't stand for the 45 minutes performance because of your age. Maybe it's time to retire. We have probably 10 people made up of 9 women and me. I hate to knock the other two gentlemen in the bass section, but they just sing the melody This is a choir. So why would you have a choir when you don't have people who can sing or perform? We've always had a Christmas and Easter cantata. I go to this church because my Aunt goes there. Many of the people who go there watch me grow up. The average age is probably 70. The pastor is a very nice man who types out his sermons and reads them to us. How do I know this? Because the one Sunday he left one of his pages back at the soundboard and had to walk back and get it. Nurses make bad patients. Teachers make bad students. Presenters make horrible audience members apparently because I can't take the fact that he has a wireless microphone but stands in one spot. Well except when he does the children's story and the one child comes up. Why? Because we've always had a children's story. There is a song by King's X off the Gretch Goes to Nebraska album called Mission and it has been in my head lately. The chorus is Who are these people behind the stained glass windows have they forgotten just what they came here for? Was it salvation or “scared of hell” or an assembly of a social get-together what's the mission of the preacher man? I used to go to a local Mega-church that really fed me spiritually. Although I notice they do “series” of sermons. They've done one on dedication to the church. They will do one on marriage. They'll do another one on money. They seem to repeat. To this I say to myself the bible doesn't change, it's always going to be the same thing. The bad news is I don't know anybody there. I've signed up for their small groups but never been contacted. It feeds me spiritually, but as someone who works from home and at times goes days without actually speaking words to another person, the little church is filled with people who know me. The other problem I have with the little church is they are constantly doing events that mean you have to pay for something. Ninety-nine percent of the time this involves food or something that leads you to think, “Can I just give you the money?” Then I saw the budget and how this money is spent. I'll just say I don't agree with the leadership of the church. I think that is the one that sticks in my side. After all, isn't it always about money in the end? When I was a pastor in training I suggested that the pastor be paid a percentage of the profit. That way if the church didn't grow (meaning I failed) I wouldn't get paid. That idea went over like a lead balloon, and apparently, instead everyone got raises. The biggest problem is the true head of the church is a woman who is almost like a second Mom for me. She was the head of the BYF when I was in it. We've had a lot of fun times. She is the “choir” director. She is the music leader. This really causes issues with my brain. This church also attracts people who if they don't take their meds will drop F bombs in church. I wish I was making this up. As you can't control them, this is an issue. Speaking of control, the ONE child we have OFTEN will crawl on her hands and knees all over the sanctuary IN THE SERVICE. Their parental figure says nothing. This drives me nuts. So If I were to summarize: The pastor is a nice guy, but a boring presenter The leadership of the church is not forward thinking and can't make hard choices The choir is lip syncing and feels their audience is dumb enough not to notice The future of the church seems questionable as there are no children The budget of the church has not shrunk with attendance The music we sing is not true praise music So why do I attend? Because I always have, except today. Screw the children's program
