Podcasts about Let Freedom Ring

As the holiday season approaches, Belle Grove Plantation prepares to host its much-anticipated Kris Kringle Market. In a recent episode of "The Valley Today," host Janet Michael talks with Kristen Laise, Executive Director, and Paige Ulevich, Festivals Coordinator, to offer listeners an exclusive look at this festive event. Their conversation reveals how the market has evolved into a cherished community tradition, blending local craftsmanship, culinary delights, and family fun. From Pandemic Brainstorm to Annual Favorite The Kris Kringle Market began as a creative response to the challenges of 2020. Kristen recalls how the idea emerged to support small businesses struggling during the pandemic. "It's outdoors, it'll be safe—let's try it," she remembers. Since then, the market has flourished, now celebrating its sixth year and drawing crowds eager to kick off their holiday shopping in style. Early Bird Perks and Shopping Delights This year, the market introduces a special early bird shopping window. For a modest $2 donation, guests over 12 can access the market from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, ensuring first pick of unique, handmade goods. After noon, admission is free, as it is all day Sunday. Paige emphasizes the value of arriving early, noting that nearly 100 vendors will offer one-of-a-kind items, from fine art and woodwork to candles, jewelry, and gourmet foods. A Feast for the Senses Food lovers will find plenty to savor. Responding to past feedback, organizers have expanded the food truck lineup, featuring local favorites like Classy Caboose, Billy Sous, and the Rad Cookie Bake Shop. Additionally, Belle Grove's own winter beers and signature hot toddies from Copper Fox Distillery promise to keep visitors warm. For those seeking a taste of tradition, the market also offers German mulled wine and homemade hot chocolate. Activities for All Ages Beyond shopping and dining, the Kris Kringle Market brims with activities. Children can enjoy story time with Kris Kringle, ballet performances, juggling lessons, and rides on the White Lightning Barrel Train. Meanwhile, adults and kids alike can participate in wreath-making classes—though, as Kristen notes, these popular sessions fill up quickly. Roaming carolers and live music add to the festive atmosphere, ensuring entertainment for everyone. Community Spirit and Volunteer Power Transitioning from logistics to community impact, Janet highlights the behind-the-scenes efforts that make the market possible. Paige credits a dedicated team of around 30 volunteers, as well as an advisory committee that curates a diverse and high-quality vendor selection. The event also welcomes sponsors, with First Bank serving as a signature supporter this year. A Place for Memories and Meaningful Gifts The market's layout encourages exploration, with themed "neighborhoods" guiding visitors to their favorite booths. Kristen and Paige agree that the event is more than a shopping destination—it's a place to create memories, discover meaningful gifts, and connect with the artisans behind each product. For those seeking experiences over material goods, Belle Grove offers memberships and self-guided tours of the historic manor house. Looking Ahead: Let Freedom Ring Finally, Kristen shares that this year's Christmas theme, "Let Freedom Ring," honors the upcoming 250th anniversary of the United States. Local garden clubs will interpret the theme in their holiday decorations, adding a layer of historical reflection to the festivities. Conclusion In summary, the Kris Kringle Market at Belle Grove Plantation stands as a testament to community resilience, creativity, and holiday spirit. With its blend of shopping, food, entertainment, and tradition, it promises a memorable start to the season for visitors of all ages. As Janet and her guests make clear, this is one event you won't want to miss. Learn more on their website and on their Facebook event page.

July 6, 2025 Talk Title: Staycation SundayFun is a choice—just like peace or contentment. While many are heading out for a long weekend, those of us staying home and steering clear of traffic and holiday crowds have an opportunity: to create our own fun, right where we are. So let's come together this Sunday—whether in person or online—and remember all the ways God invites us to loosen up, let go, and enjoy ourselves. Not everything has to be so serious. Let's make space for a little fun.  Speaker: Kathianne Lewis, DDwww.SpiritualLiving.orgTo donate to CSL Seattle: https://bit.ly/donate-cslseattleFor prayer support:PrayerRequest@spiritualliving.org206-524-7729 (PRAY)For a prerecorded Inspiration Line: 206-525-4438 (GIFT)#centersforspiritualliving.org

On July 4th we shoot off fireworks, gather for parties and parades to celebrate our country's founding, and essentially, our freedom. Freedom takes on many forms and is defined in very different ways. What does Jesus say about the type of freedom we need most? Let's learn from God's Word!

Meditate on Galatians this 4th of July!Reading Plan: Old Testament - 2 Kings 20-22Psalms - Psalm 78:67-72Gospels - Luke 3:31-38New Testament - Galatians 2:11-21Visit https://www.revivalfromthebible.com/ for more information.

Happy Fourth of July! In episode 211 - Let Freedom Ring, I'm diving into the idea of freedom—but not just the kind we celebrate with flags and fireworks. I'm talking about personal, emotional, and spiritual freedom—the kind that empowers you to show up in your mission and your life with authenticity and agency. Whether you're preparing to serve, currently on your mission, just returned, or supporting someone you love, this episode is an invitation to reflect on where you might feel stuck, and how to reclaim the power that is already yours. I share how freedom is more than just a mindset—it's a gift from God and something we can practice every day by choosing our thoughts, owning our emotions, and letting others do the same. I also talk about how Hamilton, my patriotic grandparents, and one of my early blog posts inspired this reflection. This episode is full of real talk, scriptural insights, and reminders that you have so much more influence over your life experience than you might think. So if you've been feeling like you've lost a little bit of your spark or sense of control—this episode is for you. Let's let freedom ring in our hearts, our minds, and the way we show up every day. I'm cheering you on. As always, if you found this episode helpful, I want to invite you to subscribe if you aren't already, share this episode with your friends and missionaries you know, and write a review. I know this work will help LDS missionaries around the world and it would mean so much to me if you did.

STANDAR SEMANAL.-¿Qué es esta cosa llamada amor?-VINILOS MÍTICOS DEL JAZZ.-JACKIE MCLAN-Que suene la libertad.-JAZZACTUALIDAD.-BIEL HAEPER-OCELL Let Freedom Ring es un álbum delsaxofonista de jazz estadounidense Jackie McLean , grabado en 1962 y lanzado por elsello Blue Note . Presenta a McLean en un cuarteto con el pianista Walter Davis Jr. , el bajista Herbie Lewis y el baterista Billy Higgins . McLean escribió tres de las cuatro composiciones. "Melody for Melonae" está dedicada a su hija (al igual que una composición anterior, "Little Melonae") y apareció como "Melanie" en Matador , una grabación posterior que realizó con Kenny Dorham . La interpretación a ritmo más lento de Let Freedom Ring fue la primera ocasión en que McLean usó "gritos provocativos en el registro agudo". "Rene" y "Omega" son piezas relacionadas con el blues; la primera con una estructura y armonías estándar de doce compases , la segunda más abstracta y modal . El único tema que no es de McLean es la balada de Bud Powell , "I'll Keep Loving You". La reseña de AllMusic de Steve Huey le otorgó al álbum 5 estrellas y declaró: «El éxito de Let Freedom Ring allanó el camino para que una cosecha excepcional de otros innovadores modernistas se unieran a la lista de Blue Note y, artísticamente, sigue siendo, junto con One Step Beyond , la obra maestra de McLean». La Guía Penguin del Jazz le otorga a Let Freedom Ring cuatro de cuatro estrellas e incluye el álbum en una selecta «Colección Principal». "Melodía para Melonae" - 13:24 "Seguiré amándote" ( Bud Powell ) - 6:18 "René" - 10:03 "Omega" - 8:31 Personal Jackie McLean — saxofón alto Walter Davis, Jr. — piano Herbie Lewis — bajo Billy Higgins — batería 'Pájaro' es el nuevo disco del joven pianista y compositor Biel Harper, una obra nacida del deseo de compartir la esencia intangible de la música, tan lógica como abstracta. El cuarteto que acompaña a Biel Harper en esta aventura cuenta con el lirismo de Álvaro Ocón en la trompeta, la profundidad de Tabea Kind en el contrabajo y el groove inconfundible de Lucas Zibulski en la batería. Juntos, llenan las composiciones de Biel Harper de una rica paleta de matices, colores y texturas sonoras. "Compartir música con amigos a los que admiras y amas, y saber que encontrarán su espacio entre tus notas, es un placer difícil de expresar con palabras. Es como escuchar por primera vez algo que has descubierto, y ver cómo evoluciona y se transforma en algo nuevo, a la vez conocido y misterioso". Este proceso creativo es el que da forma a este disco: una grabación realizada en un único día, todos juntos en la misma sala, con tomas únicas y llenas de improvisación y decisiones espontáneas. El álbum se compone íntegramente de música original, pensada para ofrecer la máxima libertad a los músicos, con momentos de intensidad rítmica, melodías con aires folclóricos, canciones y libre improvisación. Datos técnicos: Biel Harper, piano, composiciones y producción Tabea Kind, contrabaix. Álvaro Ocón, trompeta. Lucas Zibulski, batería. Biel Harper (Barcelona, ​​1999) se graduó en Piano Jazz en el Conservatorio Superior del Liceo en 2021, donde estudió con maestros de prestigio como Marco Mezquida, Bill McHenry y Roger Mas, entre otros. Actualmente, está finalizando un máster en Interpretación y Composición en la prestigiosa escuela Jazz Campus de Basilea (Suiza). En este período, ha tenido la oportunidad de aprender de figuras de referencia del jazz mundial, como Shai Maestro, Aaron Parks y Kit Downs en piano, y Guillermo Klein en composición. Además, ha compartido experiencias de cerca con músicos de primer nivel como Larry Grenadier, Jorge Rossy, Jeff Ballard y Lionel Loueke a través de combos, clases magistrales y conciertos en el campus. En los últimos años, ha participado en varios proyectos entre los que cabe destacar: - Aura y Biel, el dúo que comparte con la cantante Aura Mauri, y con quien en 2022 publicó su primer disco, 'Instants', poco después de quedar finalistas en el concurso Juventudes Musicales de España (Jazz). - Las diversas colaboraciones con la contrabajista y compositora Giulia Valle, entre las que cabe destacar el trío que formaban junto con la batería Andrea González - ML Quartet, liderado por el contrabajista Manuel Luque, con quien han publicado el disco 'Cicatrices' (2024) y han logrado el segundo puesto en el concurso Juventudes Musicales de España (Jazz). Con estos proyectos, ha recorrido España, Italia, Alemania y Suiza, actuando en salas y festivales de referencia como Bird's Eye, Jamboree, Nueva Jazz Cava, Auditorio de Vilafranca, Auditorio de Palafrugell y en eventos como el Estartit Jazz Festival, Festival de Jazz de Terrassa y Festival de Jazz de Palafrugell, entre otros muchos. En 2021 cofundó el festival Zona Jazz en Mediona, junto a Txema Riera y Roger Mas, consolidándolo como un espacio de referencia para la escena del jazz catalán.

In this week's episode Rabbi Kohn discusses what the Torah's definition of freedom is. He learns out from the mitzvah of the Jubilee year to give us the an insight that freedom is not the ability to do what you want when you want but rather something much deeper. He also brings out a lesson from the juxtapostion of the prohibition of overcharging to the mitzvah of Shmittah which seems to be unrelated. Subscribe to The Practical Parsha Podcast. For questions or comments please email RabbiShlomoKohn@gmail.com.

Bookwaves/Artwaves is produced and hosted by Richard Wolinsky. Links to assorted local theater & book venues   Todd Haynes Todd Haynes, independent filmmaker, in conversation with host Richard Wolinsky. Recorded February 27, 2025. The director of ten feature length films, Todd Haynes is an independent film-maker with his roots in New Queer Cinema. After coming to the attention of the film community with his short film, Superstar: The Karen Carpenter Story, in which the “actors” were Barbie Dolls, he achieved fame with his first feature, Poison, which told three stories in different ways, all of which commented on the AIDS epidemic. He followed that with the much-lauded Safe, and then moved on to mainstream success with the lush melodrama, Far from Heaven. His later films include Velvet Goldmine, focusing on the glam rock era, I'm Not There, in which several actors portrayed Bob Dylan, Carol, Dark Waters, Wonderstruck, and his latest film, May December (Netflix). His documentary, Velvet Underground, is available on Apple Plus. Along the way there was a miniseries, Mildred Pierce, starring Kate Winslet, on HBO (streaming on MAX). All his films are available streaming. The films of Todd Haynes will be shown in a retrospective, “Todd Haynes: Far From Safe,”  through April 12th at BAMPFA, Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive. Special thanks to AJ Fox and the staff at Pacific Film Archive.

Nothing is more core to American democracy than freedom. The freedom to do, to be, to say, to dream, to create, to work, to play, to speak privately, to speak publicly, to basically do anything we darn well please as long as it doesn't hurt anyone else. That is the richness and the glory of this country. People have fought, people have struggled, and people have died so that that ideal could be protected and its franchise expanded. It is beyond comprehension to me that there are those who would now limit that freedom. Who'd unabashedly use the powers of the government not in a way to protect our freedom but to diminish it. Yet that is exactly what is happening, and it's our generation's task to protect that freedom from their assault, no differently than other generations have been called to do before us.Perhaps someone should remind the modern GOP of these words spoken by Ronald Reagan:Freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. We didn't pass it to our children in the bloodstream. It must be fought for, protected, and handed on for them to do the same, or one day we will spend our sunset years telling our children and our children's children what it was once like in the United States where men were free.I've been a professional lecturer for over forty years, invited to speak at churches, universities, hospitals, Presidential libraries, and so forth. Never in a million years did I think that here the United States one of those places would have to get permission from the government before inviting me. Like, what is going on here? Except we know what is going on here. The Carter Center was told that from now on they will have to run all programming by the National Archives before scheduling. The Kennedy Center the same. And there is more. Apparently, Washington wants to run everything now. Yet the Save Act is even scarier, though at a certain point this isn't a matter of degree. This absurd proposed Congressional legislation, under the guise of protecting the integrity of our elections, would demand that a married woman who had changed her name would have to present proof of her citizenship at birth. An actual barrier to voting for the roughly 69 million married women in the United States who have changed their names? Absolutely not. But a damnable inconvenience and serious hurdle for many? Absolutely yes. And let's make no mistake about it. This is part of a larger project undertaken by some people with very old-fashioned views about the rights of women, now empowered by the new administration. I'll have more to say about that soon.So here we are. We mustn't allow ourselves to make excuses for any of this. It will become a slippery slope, if we acquiesce to any of it. Just like many people thought they'd never take away Roe v. Wade, well they did. Don't kid yourself. These people are on the march.They're counting on us to get tired, to find the whole thing too mentally exhausting, to ultimately be okay with their encroachment on our freedoms. I don't know about you, but no matter how tired I get, I'll never be too tired to say “Hell No” to that. It's our duty as Americans to honor and protect our freedom, even when others don't. We'll hold the torch high until this chapter has passed. And I know in my heart that it will. This is a public episode.

In this episode of Industry Relations, Rob and Greg break down the latest in the ongoing battle over NAR's three-way agreement and how Phoenix Realtors' recent compromise with NAR might reshape the industry. They explore whether this is a true win for NAR or just the beginning of a major shift, debating the rise of the “Freedom Plan” and how it could spread across the country. With bold predictions, deep industry insights, and a fair amount of sarcasm, this episode is a must-listen for anyone keeping an eye on real estate governance.   Key Takeaways • Phoenix Realtors' “Compromise”: Did they cave to NAR, or did they find a way to rewrite the rules on their own terms? • The Freedom Plan vs. Realtor Membership: How the rebranded “Non-Member MLS Access” could be the start of a larger movement. • Will Other Associations Follow?: If Phoenix can do it, why wouldn't Scottsdale and other local associations jump on board? • State Associations' Next Move: Will Arizona Realtors create their own version of the Freedom Plan to retain members? • Is the Three-Way Agreement Dead?: Rob argues that this move could mark the beginning of the end for NAR's traditional membership structure   Inman News: NAR, Phoenix Realtors settle fight over MLS Choice   Watch Us on YouTube    Connect with Rob and Greg:  Rob's Website Greg's Website   Our Sponsors: CoreLogic Notorious VIP The Giant Steps Job Board   Production and Editing Services by Sunbound Studios

Hey, friend! Welcome back to the show. As folks in the U.S. celebrate Independence Day, I wanted to lay out 4 ways you can set yourself free today. Because when you become an estranged mother, there is a net of oppression that falls over you. When you're oppressed under the weight of guilt, anger, powerlessness and shame, you can't mend yourself, or your relationship with your estranged daughter or son. I'm going to teach you about 4 ways I hope you set yourself free. It's God's plan for you to find true freedom. I hope you show up for that. Let's talk about it.  . Next Steps: 1) Apply for your FREE consultation to talk to Jenny 1:1. Find out the exact path forward to feeling better and greatly increasing your chances of getting your son or daughter back in your life.

Her faith, compassion, understanding, dedication and display of radical love has truly been life-changing for me. I was so overwhelmed with feelings of confusion, guilt, and sadness. I felt lost and didn't know how to navigate through the emotional turmoil I was experiencing. However, from the very first call, Jenny created a safe and non-judgmental space for me to share my details. Her ability to listen attentively and empathize while helping me understand a different way of thinking is truly remarkable. She understood my feelings and offered tools each session in ways I have not experienced even from therapy. I am forever thankful for the medicine she has poured into me to be the very best version of myself! This has rippled into all areas of life for me. Jenny's teachings have produced results reconnecting me with my estranged daughter! Thank you for being the vessel of unwavering faith & love that so many of us could benefit from, estranged or not.

I've experienced so much inner healing with Jenny as my Coach. I am living a truly happy life, and I reconciled with my son! I feel empowered to continue stepping into my full power as a mother and to live a life where my children matter, but they don't determine my worth. I am me again. - Carol Adams

This is a special Independence Day episode with a message that God has put on my heart to share. It's time to transfrom from victim to victor. It's time to stand up against the enemy and refuse to surrender. It's time to fight back. Let's go.    I'm fighting this battle. But I need more warriors. Come join me. 

The boys celebrate "Let Freedom Ring Friday" on Wednesday. They examine what makes up the perfect hot dog. Artificial intelligence now makes it possible for dead celebs to read to you. One listener said she wants to hear Norm Macdonald's voice again so the boys rattled off a bunch of Norm's greatest stand-up hits. Ethan and Dave are dead set on talking about how dogs react to fireworkds, Lou does not love it.

Will Porras, who is the Executive Chef at Vault Brewing Company in Yardley, PA learned and honed his knowledge as a chef while working inside various kitchens while growing up, and further refined his craft under some very esteemed chefs. I spoke with Will, learning about his history within the culinary industry and what led him to become Vault Brewing Company's Executive Chef. Taking on the role of an Executive Chef is not for the faint of heart-something that Will has excelled at. Speaking of excelling at things, Vault Brewing Company has created a delicious combination of beers and elevated dining menus that they're now looking to expand (spoil alert--and you heard it first on Food Farms and Chefs Radio Show!). So be sure to keep an eye out for their official announcement by following them on their social media pages, as well as when you visit them in person!https://vaultbrewing.comMy next guest, Joseph Staffieri, is the owner behind Fusco's Water ice with two locations in Delaware. Joseph is a chip off the ol' block--quite literally, in fact. His family has owned and operated the water ice business for years, turning peoples muggy and frustratingly-hot summer days into joyful ones with their scratch-made water ice and soft-serve ice creams. However much his father had stuck to their traditional flavor, Joe has been thinking outside of the box and coming up with creative new flavors for the communities and visitors to enjoy. But with all good things, comes the tireless efforts to create it: So every day Joe and his team squeeze out every last flavorful drop of ingredients to create the best tasting water ice around!https://www.fuscoswaterice.comSolidified in the Hudson Valley as part of everyone's family, third-generation owner Peter Deising found even more attention for his family's business, Deisings Bakery & Restaurant, after the HBO-based Host of Last Week Tonight's John Oliver purchased equipment that Deising wanted for his bakery & restaurant. Peter had left an inquiry note on the door of the recently-closed chain restaurant, Red Lobster. What happened next was even more note-worthy: John Oliver noticed and issued a challenge to Demising, and in exchange for meeting the challenge the Deising Bakery and Restaurant would receive the equipment he inquired about. I'm a HUGE John Oliver fan, so this is how the Hudson Valley-based business came to my attention, and I was BEARY enticed to have them join me on my show to talk about the JO moment, and moreover to shed more light on the history of Deising Bakery & Restaurant, and what keeps their community coming back after so many years in business.https://www.deisings.comWhen it comes down to it, the time, energy, and effort that goes into plating up that perfect dish is at the heart of every Chef--something that leaves a lasting impression on anyone who visits them. I am grateful every day for what the businesses I eat and drink at offers me. I'm also grateful to all of you who tune in to the show to listen every week, so if there is anything (or anywhere) that you would like to hear from--feel free to send a recommendation for the show by emailing me at foodfarmsandchefs@gmail.com.

On July 4, we celebrate Independence Day and the privilege to live in a free country. Join John as he remembers becoming a US citizen, and reflects on the human desire to be free.

Nick Swarthout, our pastor of Groups and Community Outreach, shares the message “Let Freedom Ring!”. It will challenge you to reflect on what it means to be truly free and how living in the truth of Christ can transform your life.
