Spectrum WT v. Wendler, argued before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit on April 29, 2024. The argument was heard by Judges James L. Dennis, Leslie H. Southwick and James C. Ho. Excerpted from the Brief for Plaintiffs-Appellants: Spectrum WT is a longstanding, recognized student organization at West Texas A&M . . . [I]n November 2022, Spectrum WT started planning a March 31, 2023, charity drag show at Legacy Hall [a campus venue]. The students planned their event to be anything but risqué. They instructed performers to avoid profane music or “lewd” conduct. And they described the planned performances as appropriate for those over 13 years old. Eleven days before the show, Defendant and Vice President for Student Affairs Christopher Thomas informed Spectrum WT that President Wendler was canceling the drag show. In a public edict posted online and emailed to the campus community, President Wendler declared that “West Texas A&M will not host a drag show on campus” because a “harmless drag show” could never be “possible.” Wendler's 734-word edict focused on the “ideology” underlying drag shows. Drag, he wrote, is “a performance exaggerating aspects of womanhood (sexuality, femininity, gender)” that, through “slapstick,” “stereotype women in cartoon-like extremes for the amusement of others.” Statement of Issues (excerpted from the Brief for Plaintiffs-Appellants): Plaintiffs wish to perform a PG-13 charity drag show at West Texas A&M University, which the University's president agreed is “performance” and “artistic expression.” Did the district court err in concluding that Plaintiffs' drag show lacks First Amendment protection? Before anyone took the stage, West Texas A&M's president banned drag shows in campus forums open to student expression because, in his view, drag shows promote values that clash with his own. Did the district court err in not enjoining this viewpoint-based prior restraint on protected expression? Resources: Brief for Plaintiffs-Appellants Spectrum WT, et al.

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Tim Timbs, senior vice president of operations for fast casual brands at FB Society, the Dallas based group that's currently parent to concepts like Whiskey Cake, Sixty Vines, and Haywire, and previously to major success stories like Twin Peaks and Velvet Taco. As lead for their fast-casual concepts, Tim is particularly responsible for the growth of Son of a Butcher, a slider concept that originated in FB Society's hugely successful Legacy Hall. Tim joined the podcast to talk about how a portfolio group like FB Society tackles fast casual brand development and why a food hall like Legacy Hall was the perfect place to incubate a concept like Son of a Butcher. In this conversation, you'll find out why:Ingredient quality narrows the gap between casual and fast casual You can improve your scalability if you don't commit to one kind of buildSliders are the hot new category because of the variety they provideOne of the most important things to avoid when expanding is putting your restaurants on an islandStrong supply chain relationships are critical to your expansion journeyHave feedback or ideas for Take-Away?

Sixty Vines, the six-restaurant FB Society concept, taps deeply into wine culture, from 60 different varieties at four graduated pour sizes to a friendly wine-country ambiance. Founded in 2016 in Plano, Texas, Sixty Vines is designed for experience, especially in the exploration and discovery of new wines, which can be ordered in 2.5, 5 and 8 ounces of a 750 ml carafe. Availability of wines varies by location. Sixty Vines’ keg system sidesteps bottling costs, yielding a number of glasses of wine under $10 — a rarity among casual-dining menus. The 60 taps at the newest Boca Raton unit also lean into the outdoor patio service area, Carcara said. Growth this year will include a new Sixty Vines in The Woodlands near Houston, and plans call for openings in Charlotte, N.C., and Reston, Va., in the first half of 2023 and another Orlando, Fla., area restaurant and Washington, D.C., in the second half of next year. FB Society Sixty Vines does have a cocktail program, because customers often enjoy starting the meal with a cocktail and then shift to wine. The quality wine is matched with a growing geography of wine foods, from California vegetables to Spanish olives and charcuterie. Like the menu, the restaurant design is meant to be comfortable. FB Society is a multi-concept operator that rebranded from Front Burner Restaurants LLC in late 2020. It previously created and spun off the Twin Peaks and Velvet Taco concepts. In addition to Sixty Vines, it operates Whiskey Cake, Mexican Sugar, Ida Claire, Haywire, The Ranch and a slider concept called Son of a Butcher. It also operates Legacy Hall, a food and entertainment venue, wrote Ron Ruggless in his Hot Concepts feature.

In this episode of Take-Away with Sam Oches, Sam talks with Michael Morris, CEO of food hall developer and operator The Food Hall Co., which operates sprawling properties like Legacy Hall in Dallas and Assembly Food Hall in Nashville. He discusses how food halls have emerged from the pandemic, how they serve as a food and culture hub for their markets, and how they can continue to expand considering the challenges of finding great real estate today. In this conversation, you’ll find out why: Food halls are a good option for operators who don’t want to think about build-out, maintenance, and other administrative duties Food halls’ success is dependent upon everyone finding something they can enjoy People are social creatures, and food halls could stand to benefit the most from that post-COVID Food halls’ adaptability make them perfect for most any market Constant evolution is key to bringing guests back to food halls, but more in programming than stalls Have feedback or ideas for Take-Away?

How does a young rock artist crack today's music code of formulaic beats & electronia? 1st, he must have a disobedient spirit that can surpass an industry saturated by computerized music; next he must obtain enough cultural significance like rockers from the past & add in sincere, stirring passion. And Griffin's “no excuses” rock act delivers it all! He doesn't fall in line with what's already out there. Instead, he's created his own retro rock sound his “GrifFANS” live for. Griffin's stage experience started at 8 years of age & has continued with a full cycle of alternating years learning to play each instrument of rock. And he's played hundreds of shows: with Disney artist Zendaya across the country & Canada, The House of Blues, The Granada, The Gas Monkey, Gilley's, Lava Cantina, Westfield Presents London, Legacy Hall, just to name a few. At the age of 13, he won the Texas 10 under 20 Guitar contest at the Dallas International Guitar Festival. In 2016 & 2017, Griffin won 3 categories at London's Fab Charts Awards (Best Male Artist, Best Video & Best Song). He was also seen on THE VOICE. Then, in 2018, Griffin won Indie Guitarist of the Year in London; he also received 3 Josie Award nominations (Artist of the Year, Entertainer of the Year & Vocalist of the Year). Griffin was also asked to join the prestigious BROTHERHOOD of the GUITAR and represent Music Man Guitars, Ernie Ball Strings & Taylor Acoustic Guitars. That same year, he also scooped up FHR Radio Entertainment's RISING STAR award for Male Artist & was nominated again by the Fab Charts, the Josie Awards, Radio WigWam Awards & Indie Star Radio Awards. Griffin was also nominated for the highest designation an artist can receive from the Texas State legislature, “Texas State Artist – State Musician”. Griffin also earned a GOLDEN TICKET to Hollywood on American Idol & received high praise from Katy Perry & Lionel Richie for his level of talent & musicianship. The release of Griffin's debut album, “Believe It”, gave the world their 1st taste of Griffin's style of rock & roll – raw, retro & remarkable! From the powerful ballad “Some Kind of Love Song” to his rock anthem “Believe It”, every note that is sung and sound that is heard was performed by Griffin. And his promise to “KEEP ROCK ALIVE” continues with the early 2020 release of “Lead Me” and the recent release of his latest song, a ballad, called “Heart Full of Love”, which is already charting in Australia & the UK. 2021 is set to reveal the latest chapter in Griffin's journey as he unleashes his band, The Real Rock Revolution, and a slew of singles that will rock your socks off!

Join us for our final episode of the semester! On this episode, seniors Jadon Murad, Nadia Pressley, Emma Kraft, and guest Tyler Cooper reflect on their four years at Mercer. We talk about how Mercer can do better, what we have planned for the future, and how the pandemic has impacted our senior year.

On the Name "Lutheran." By Larry Beane “I ask that my name be left silent and people not call themselves Lutheran, but rather Christians. Who is Luther? The doctrine is not mine. I have been crucified for no one. St. Paul in 1 Cor. 3:4-5 would not suffer that the Christians should call themselves of Paul or of Peter, but Christian. How should I, a poor stinking bag of worms, become so that the children of Christ are named with my unholy name? It should not be dear friends. Let us extinguish all factious names and be called Christians whose doctrine we have. The pope's men rightly have a factious name because they are not satisfied with the doctrine and name of Christ and want to be with the pope, who is their master. I have not been and will not be a master. Along with the church I have the one general teaching of Christ who alone is our master. Matt. 23:8.” — MARTIN LUTHER, 1522, *ADMONITION AGAINST INSURRECTION* The name “Lutheran” was coined as a pejorative by the papal theologian Johann Eck some time between 1520 and 1522. It was also used by Pope Hadrian VI, the successor to Leo X. The intent was to give the impression that “Lutheranism” was a heresy named after Luther - the way “Arianism” was named after Arius, and “Montanism” was named after Montanus, etc. The above quote, in response to this use of the term “Lutheran,” registers Dr. Luther's vehement objection. The word “Lutheran” never appears in our Book of Concord. The word “Evangelical”, used as an adjective to describe either our churches or our faith, appears eight times. The word “catholic” appears thirteen times (not counting its use in the ecumenical creeds). In fact, the Lutheran Church is referred to as “the true and genuine catholic Church” in the signature block of the Treatise. And yet, with all of the above duly noted, Charles Porterfield Krauth points out, citing Gerhard, that “in the ancient Church the Arians styled those who held the true faith as Athanasians.” Of course, the popular name of the Quicunque Vult - the Athanasian Creed - uses this term “Athanasian” in this way, as Athanasius did not write it and was long dead by the time it was written. The Third Ecumenical Creed reflects the “Athanasian” faith - that is, the Orthodox, Catholic, Nicene faith - over and against the Arian faith. As Krauth cites Gerhard: We do not call ourselves Lutherans, but are so styled by our enemies, and we permit it as a token of our consent with the pure teaching of the word which Luther set forth. We suffer ourselves to bear his name, not as of one who has invented a new faith, but of one who has restored the old, and purified the Church [emphasis original]. Moreover, not all Lutheran churches in the world are called “Lutheran.” Krauth points out that: In Poland and Hungary, the official title of our communion is ‘CHURCH OF THE AUGSBURG CONFESSION,' and this is the name which, on the title-page of the Form [sic] of Concord, and repeatedly within it, is given to our churches. This way of describing themselves remains true among Lutheran bodies in modern Poland and Slovakia - though neither of these church bodies is in fellowship with the LCMS. So should we continue to use the name today? Our confession has been known around the world as “Lutheran” for nearly five centuries. It is a kind of shorthand that identifies us as churches of the Augsburg Confession, and serves to separate us from the Reformed and Anabaptist wings of the Reformation. The name has stuck to us the way that taunts from the enemy often do in wartime, as with the British taunt of “Yankee Doodle” to mock the “Yankee” army, and with the Yankee taunt of “Rebel” to mock the Confederate “Rebels” less than a century later. Though these names were put upon them by their opponents, sometimes the name sticks - and what was intended as a banner of shame becomes a banner of solidarity. There is a contemporary trend to eschew the name “Lutheran” in LCMS churches - although I have never seen an example of such a congregation replacing “Lutheran” with “Church of the Augsburg Confession.” In every case that I have seen, removing “Lutheran” is a distancing of the congregation from the confessional label out of fear of alienating potential new members. Perhaps it is seen as stodgy and incongruous with a more modern “spiritual but not religious” culture. Rather than adopting a historical description of our confession as an alternative to “Lutheran,”, such as “Evangelical” or “Catholic,” the move seems to be one of disassociating of oneself from the idea of being a “Lutheran” church. I have never seen a liturgical, traditional, and confessional congregation drop the name Lutheran. I have seen this phenomenon among “big box,” non-liturgical, and non-traditional churches. In this context, it is as though a child changes his last name because he is ashamed of his family, or especially doesn't want to be associated with his father, or with other relatives who bear the same name. It certainly gives the impression that the name is sullied, and implies a sense of the desire to separate oneself from those who continue to be thus identified. I know of one congregation that was recently renamed nearly a hundred years into its history, in which not only “Lutheran” was removed, but even the name of God was taken out of the non-committal, generic new name - which reflects merely the neighborhood where the church is located. Needless to say, this is not a congregation where Gottesdienst would be available to pick up in the narthex on the way out, though it was a formerly traditional congregation. Another example is an LCMS congregation whose impressive website never mentions the word “Lutheran.” The “Who We Are” tab says that the congregation “is a place to belong as you change, and change as you follow Jesus. We want to help people realize all God has for them in a life-changing relationship with Jesus, give people a safe place to belong, and teach people what it means to follow Jesus.” Their values are: "Prayer, Applications of Scripture, Spiritual Growth, Integrity, Outreach, Families, Small Groups.” The list of values does not include the Cross, the Gospel, Holy Baptism, the Lord's Supper, or the Resurrection. Their mission statement is equally bland and bereft of the cross, mentioning “change” and “relationship.” There are “Weekend Worship Experiences” and “Wednesday Experiences.” Yet another example is a very old congregation that used to bear the name of one of the apostles followed by the name “Lutheran Church.” A few years ago, they made a big deal of their new generic name that has excised both the apostle's name and the name “Lutheran.” Their website shows a huge stage as well as scenes of multitudes of laughing boomers drinking coffee in Starbuck's style plastic cups. Their “About Us” includes their “Approach” which is fourfold: “Unconditional Acceptance, True to Life Approach, Inspiring Connections, and God Directed Journey. “ Neither Jesus nor the cross are mentioned, though they do mention “messages, music, and traditional practices like baptism and communion,” the latter of which is a twice a month affair. Under “What we believe,” there is a begrudging nod to both Lutheranism and the LCMS, as the congregation was “born out of the Lutheran (LCMS) tradition.” That kind of sounds like it is a spinoff of Lutheranism rather than an actual Lutheran church. They also acknowledge their history, beginning with the quote: “The only constant is change” and an invitation to learn more about the congregation's history at “Legacy Hall.” Holy Communion is offered to “all who share in our profession of the Christian faith are encouraged to partake in Holy Communion, provided they Have received Christian Baptism (Acts 2:36-38), Recognize and confess their sinfulness (Proverbs 28:13; 1 John 1:8-9), Forgive others (Matthew 5:21-24; Matthew 6:12) Believe the body and blood of our Lord Jesus Christ are truly present, offered under forms of bread and wine (1 Corinthians 10:16; 1 Corinthians 11:27-29) They also note that “Non-alcoholic wine is offered in the blue section of the communion trays and gluten-free wafers are also available at all communion stations for those with special needs.” I recently ran across another LCMS parish that did not change its name, but its online presence omits the word “Lutheran” in its title and logos. This congregation's self-description lists six “core values,” and not one of them nor their explanations mentions anything about Jesus. These “Core Values” are: “Acceptance… Compassionate Community… Spirit-Led Bible-Based Lutheran Church [that one is a surprise]… Worship… Transformation… Passing on the Passion.” At least they used the name “Lutheran” buried here in the fine print, but as for me, I think that I will indeed “pass on the passion.” They aren't referring to the suffering and death of our Lord. The world has a very different connotation about “passion,” and it is usually a cheesy marketing word. Not only is Jesus missing from these “Core Values,” so is the Gospel. This same congregation also lists six “Worship Values,” and they are: “Non-Judgemental [sic], Biblical Preaching, Good Music, Casual Dress, Fellowship, Fun.” I'm not sure how Law and Gospel (Biblical) preaching can happen without the judgment of the law being part of the equation, nor can I wrap my head around the “Worship Value” that worship is supposed to be “fun.” And how did something so pedestrian and banal as “Casual Dress” become one of the Six Chief Parts of Worship? Most of the congregations that have dropped the name “Lutheran” have dropped the Lutheran liturgy, replacing it with some form of pop-culture entertainment worship, complete with a stage, drum kit, mixing boards, guitars, and emoting vocalist - calling to mind the popular non-denominational or charismatic worship that is big on ginning up emotion but light on the incarnational presence of Christ in Word and Sacrament. Many such churches that have excised the name “Lutheran” make it a point to celebrate the Sacrament of the Altar (such as it is) infrequently - not unlike those confessions that see it only as symbolic. It gives the impression that they are not only ashamed of their confessional subscription, but even of the Eucharist itself. At very least, it didn't make the cut in the above Core Values or Worship Values. One thing that I have noticed that binds all of these rejecters of the name Lutheran is that their worship does not call to mind our shared confession of Apology 24:1: In our churches Mass is celebrated every Sunday and on other festivals when the sacrament is offered to those who wish for it after they have been examined and absolved. We keep traditional liturgical forms, such as the order of the lessons, prayers, vestments, etc. (Tappert translation) Nor do they embody the spirit of the Augustana 24:1 Falsely are our churches accused of abolishing the Mass; for the Mass is retained among us, and celebrated with the highest reverence. (McCain translation) So insofar as those who distance themselves from the name “Lutheran” - and thus distance themselves from the rest of the family who retain our old and venerable name - maybe it is a blessing that they are not readily identified as Lutheran. In removing the name Lutheran, they are mercifully relieving the rest of us of being lumped in with them, at least at first glance. Yes, indeed, there is always something to be thankful for. At some point, perhaps they will, as St. Paul put it in Galatians 5:12, go all the way and cut themselves off in more than name only.
