Mateo 6: 32El título de la meditación de hoy lo he tomado de una canción muy popular, Quizás ya estás sonriendo, al recordar el silbido que caracteriza esta famosa tonada. Esta canción ha sido atribuida erróneamente a Bob Marley, pero su compositor fue en realidad Bobby McFerrin y en la primera estrofa escribió que «en la vida todos tenemos problemas, y cuando te preocupas los multiplicas» y luego dice la frase que se repite en toda la canción: -Don't worry, be happy-, o sea: -No te preocupes, sé feliz-.McFerrin acertó al componer esta canción, destacando un aspecto fundamental de la vida: nuestras preocupaciones constantes que, en muchas ocasiones, obstaculizan nuestra capacidad para experimentar la felicidad. Las inquietudes más comunes suelen estar vinculadas con la vivienda, la alimentación, la vestimenta y otras necesidades físicas. Aunque es innegable que estas son esenciales para sentirnos seguros y protegidos, con frecuencia, lo que realmente nos consume no es la satisfacción de estas necesidades básicas, sino el poco saludable deseo de acumular más de lo que realmente necesitamos.Hace más de dos mil años, el Maestro de Galilea dijo en sus propias palabras: -No te preocupes, sé feliz-. En el Sermón del Monte, Jesús comparó nuestras necesidades con algunos elementos de la naturaleza: ¿Te preocupas porque no tienes comida? ¡Mira las aves! No siembran ni almacenan y Dios las alimenta. ¿Te inquietas porque no tienes ropa? ¡Mira las flores! No trabajan y Dios las viste. Jesús concluye diciendo: Si así viste Dios a la hierba que hoy está en el campo y mañana es arrojada al horno, ¿no hará mucho más por ustedes? (Mat. 6: 30).Cristo dijo que Dios sabe que tenemos necesidad de todas estas cosas. ¡Qué alentador es saber que hay un Dios que se interesa en mis necesidades! ¡Qué bueno es saber que Dios no está allá a lo lejos, preocupado solo por mi vida espiritual, sino que también está pendiente de mi bienestar físico!Hoy Dios te dice: No te preocupes, sé feliz, porque yo cuido de ti. Me gusta cómo Pedro lo expresó: Depositen en él toda ansiedad, porque él cuida de ustedes (1 Pedro 5:7, NVI). ¿No crees que ese es un mensaje que vale la pena compartir hoy con alguien? Hagamos de las palabras de Jesucristo una tendencia en este día.

Episode 260. Robert McFerrin Revisited

In the very first season of Countermelody I presented an episode which featured both Lawrence Winters and Robert McFerrin, two of the most significant baritones of the twentieth century, and both trail-blazing African American singers. Last week I revisited the life, career, and recordings of Lawrence Winters, and this week, as a companion to that episode, I present today his contemporary Robert McFerrin (19 March 1921 – 24 November 2006), the first African American male to sing at the Metropolitan Opera. He made his first appearance with the company as Amonasro in Aida on Thursday January 27, 1955, twenty days after Marian Anderson's legendary debut there. McFerrin sang only ten performances of three roles under the banner of the Met, eight of them in the house, and two on tour. His final performance there, also as Amonasro, took place almost exactly two years after his debut there. Five months later in June 1957, McFerrin went into the studios of Riverside Records, and, accompanied by the pianist Norman Johnson, and over the course of two days, recorded this legendary album of spirituals, his only solo album, which is heard in its entirety in this episode. I am not alone in considering this a classic of the genre. My presentation of all fourteen tracks of this album is supplemented by three recordings that McFerrin made in 1946 for the short-lived Sunbeam Records label, the brainchild of composer and arranger Marl Henderson Young, who provides the accompaniments. At the other end of the spectrum is a guest appearance that McFerrin, Sr. made on a 1990 recording by his son, superstar singer, composer, and arranger Bobby McFerrin. I also feature a recently unearthed live recording of McFerrin singing Amonasro live in Napoli in 1956, as well as a moving recording of McFerrin performing live in Washington DC in 1995, after having suffered a debilitating stroke that left him virtually unable to speak. Nevertheless, the song, however compromised, was still in his heart. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Inspired by a quote attributed to the eastern mystic Meyer Baba, Bobby McFerrin created this a cappella masterpiece. And, although Michael Musto of the Village Voice has proclaimed it the “worst song of all time”, and Blender Magazine snarked “it's difficult to think of a song more likely to plunge you into suicidal despondency,” this irrepressible ditty stands as the cornerstone of a singular musical career, festooned with awards and encomiums, including a Grammy for Lifetime achievement in 2022. It's not so much the possibly insipid - (depending on your level of cynicism) - lyrics, it's the purity and perfection of Bobby's voice alone, albeit overdubbed, that communicates its message of joy. The son of an opera singer and a voice teacher, Mr. McFerrin possesses a preternatural perfection of pitch and tone that has enabled him, among many other extraordinary feats, to trade horn parts with the Marsalis brothers, or deliver a flawless William Tell Overture solo.As a philosopher and exponent of music's healing potential for the human brain, Bobby continues to spread his message. Since 2021, he has conducted “Circlesongs” at Freight and Salvage in Berkeley, CA, where audience members are encouraged to improvise alongside the master - a unique fusion of jazz and therapy. Here's an ironic side-note: George H.W. Bush used the song for his presidential campaign, and Bobby protested, saying he would not vote for him. Then, he stopped performing the song in protest. I guess he wasn't too happy.

Season 5: Jose James Brings Hip Hop Cool to International Jazz Audiences

Acclaimed international jazz artist Jose James has a composure about him that one might compare to James Bond.   The Minneapolis native claims he was one of the least talented artists in his music circles growing up, yet he ultimately attended The New School for Jazz and Contemporary Music. His first album, The Dreamer, debuted in 2008. Since then, he's gone on to play at the Kennedy Center, The Hollywood Bowl, Ancienne Belgique, Jazz at Lincoln Center, the Melbourne Symphony and has recorded 11 more records including his latest which dropped April 5—the stunning album 1978, named for the year of his birth.   Along the way, he's picked up honor after honor in establishing himself as an extraordinary jazz singer/songwriter—but one built for the hip-hop generation. Pitchfork called him, “one of the suavest vocal improvisers on the scene,” and it's been said his arrangements and approach are “in deep conversation with funk, R&B, and hip-hop.”   Despite oozing cool, he's not really all about himself. You quickly understand that James lives for the collaboration and building art that he loves with others.   “I really grew up with this idea that you make music with a band, with other people,” he told me recently on The Load Out Music Podcast.  He grew up feeling the diverse vibes of bands ranging from the Ohio Players and Peter, Paul and Mary found in his mother's record collection; the funky global beats of his multi-instrumentalist father's band, Ipso Facto; the western church music of his Catholic school and diverse artists such as Nirvana, 10,000 Maniacs, De la Soul, A Tribe Called Quest and Grammy-winner Bobby McFerrin who was the creative chair of the Saint Paul Chamber Orchestra for a time in the early 1990s. When he was 17, James attended a McFerrin concert with the noted jazz pianist Chick Corea. It was then that he was hooked on the idea that a career in music was inevitable—but he still was surprised that others saw it as well. “Wow,” James said. “People see something in me that I might not see. I didn't really go to college. I didn't want to do the traditional route. I was like, I can have a coffee shop job and pay my rent and see what happens. This is where my spirit is taking me.” Despite a love for jazz, early on James understood that jazz could be limiting and wanted to explore the boundaries of the genre. “There is a strong jazz radio, but it's pretty strict about what they play,” he said, noting that listeners essentially find smooth or classic jazz on radio, but the parameters are narrow. Thus, he approaches each record with the understanding that he must keep certain singles within the ditches, producing them to be radio friendly, while stretching boundaries on other tracks with dance, pop and hip-hop beats. “I think it's more frustrating that jazz, in general, is not more popular in America,” he muses, despite his voice not elevating to indicate any semblance of anger. “You go to Tokyo, go to any shopping mall, restaurant, they are playing jazz.” As James' star has risen, he's realized two principal realities about his chosen career: That money and power still drive the industry and that he would be little without the graciousness of other artists.  “It's not just about talent, James said. “It's about who's pushing you and how much money.” This became apparent to him when he released a single independently in 2012 to little fanfare. However, the same single was included on his first album for the vaunted Blue Note label and it became a sensational hit, landing him appearances on David Letterman's and Conan O'Brien's late-night shows.  James credits his success to mentors who have given him their time including legendary jazz pianist McCoy Tyner (who worked with John Coltrane), singer Anita Baker, composer Christian McBride, band leader Chico Hamilton and even former late-night host Jay Leno. “There's so much generosity going around,” he said. “You have to take the wins.” As for 1978, James said that it is, “The first time I've really gotten personal in a concrete way. I'm going to reveal more about myself and where I'm from.”  He points to the racial politics of Minnesota and efforts to bring to bear a range of influences including Prince, Michael Jackson and even Bob Dylan. “I call it party and politics because, to me, that's what the 70s kind of resonates with. People knew how to party. They could throw down. But they were also famous for taking a stand.” Thus, the first half of the album is what he calls “party,” while the second half focuses on “politics,” including pieces written in the memories of George Floyd and Trayvon Martin. “I don't really worry about it,” James said of injecting politics into his art. “I've definitely gotten some of that—the shut up and sing kind of vibe. If it's important to you, I think you've got to talk about it. If people don't like it, that's kind of fine.” It's important to Jose James indeed. Enjoy a tremendous episode of The Load Out Music Podcast with the acclaimed jazz maestro.

NACHTS UM HALB 1 – Der Musikpodcast in 3D Audio

Willkommen zu Folge 15 mit Madison McFerrin! Das ist Madison McFerrin. Die Singer-Songwriterin aus San Francisco wusste bereits mit fünf, dass sie, wenn sie eimal groß ist, ihr Geld mit Gesang verdienen möchte - ihr, dem ein oder anderem bekannten, Vater Bobby McFerrin war daran sicherlich auch nicht ganz unschuldig.

Gregg Tilston and Karim Kanji welcome to the show for the second time, Paul Chin! In the wake of Beyoncé and fellow Toronto artist Drake releasing their own dance projects, heralding a reclamation of electronic music for Black artists at the highest heights of the industry, Paul Chin begins the rollout of his own complementary offering in his full-length debut And Under Heaven We Are All Made Of Water, which exhibits the forward-thinking sonic ambition of the underground as he explores themes of Afrofuturism, equity, and renewal; reflecting on what it means to be a co-habitant of the planet we all live on. Brand New Moon, the first single from the album sees Chin and Madison McFerrin connect for an otherworldly, and community-minded rebuke of the intergalactic ambitions of billionaires Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, and Sir Richard Branson, resisting false “prospects of prosperity”. McFerrin – daughter of vocal jazz icon Bobby McFerrin – flexes her birthright as an architect of luscious layered R&B vocals, gliding effortlessly over glassy production that eventually transforms into a bold trunk-rattler for an Earthbound resistance. Brand New Moon will be available on all marketplaces and DSPs October 26th, 2022. Released via The Nautilus Foundation, distributed by Alpha Pup.

For those of you looking to quantify and understand all the benefits of open banking, you've come to the right place! In this Pulse of Payments episode, I speak with Trustly VP of Enterprise Growth Ross McFerrin – a self-proclaimed payments geek admittedly obsessed with the innovation and disruption within our dynamic ecosystem. Open banking, by definition, is the use of open APIs that enable developers to build applications and services around the financial institution. So, what do companies like Trustly provide in the way of innovation and disruption? Simply stated, they make ACH a viable method of payment within the digital commerce space. And this is a big win for merchants because it offers them a payment alternative to card that is less risky and more cost effective. In the ecommerce space, Trustly thrives as an alternative to card because they can guarantee payments with no chargebacks and at a cost that is much lower. When it comes to travel, merchants appreciate the level of security and confidence experienced on both sides of the payments loop and the fintech space also benefits from open banking options to help facilitate various offerings including NACHA compliance, loan underwriting, RTP disbursement and the funding of crypto wallets.  But, truly, Trustly offers benefits on both side of the payments equation. Merchants realize material savings from a payments standpoint, have the capacity to deliver a payments experience that resonates well with the younger generations and can even benefit from future-proofing their business as real-time rails become more ubiquitous. Consumers, on the other hand, unlock value in the form of more benefit-driven incentives offered by the merchants they choose to transact with. In this episode we'll answer - how is open banking shaping our industry and what do we have to look forward to in the very near future.

Week 5 | Worry Kills Contentment

Grace Fellowship Church - Brunswick MD

Play Episode Listen Later Dec 19, 2021


This weekend we are wrapping up our series on contentment and gratitude called Thank Full. In the last few weeks, we've defined Contentment is defined as accepting and finding satisfaction with one's situation and lot in life. I want to have a conversation about Worry. Worry is a contentment killer. Many times when I'm struggling with contentment, it's not that I'm greedy about something- and that I need to have more…. it's just that I'm worried about something. And so it steels my joy and my contentment. And there's been no lack of things to worry about lately with everything hitting the headlines. Each day is a new crisis and something to become worried about. And I think that this is somehow unique and new- but I know that if you talked with people 100 years ago or 150 years ago, they would probably say the same thing. This is a message I feel like God's Spirit has asked me to preach. In part because it's a journey God has been taking me through, and I think it's a Word he wants his church to hear this weekend because it's something we all deal with. And even as I bring up the word “Worry” some of you may think I'm talking directly to you- if so, that's God's Spirit working because I'm promise you I'm not addressing anyone in particular, but to all of us in principle. And so as we begin, I just want to ask you to consider this question: What's your relationship with worry? Is it something that occasionally strikes or is a constant companion for you? Some of you may think; of course who doesn't worry about making it to work on time or if you're gonna pass the test. Those are normal worries. That may be you, but there are also seasons of life for many and you'd say “i really struggle with worry”. Raise your hand if you are a world class worrier. Maybe worry isn't something that's occasional— worry is something that controls more of your life than you really want it to. It controls your life when we get up in the middle the night at 3 AM we come back to bed and because of our bladder in our brains are possessed by the devil we end up thinking about things over and over and over again like a washing machine with a garment tossing in about. I thought enters our head and we play it over from every single aspect in possibility and what if this happens and what if that happens. And then we have a task that enters our brain we can't let it go in so we stay up at night thinking about that project that's due the next morning and we need to wake up in time to take them to the airport and so we worry. •We worry about our health, we worry about the pandemic. •We worry about the future of our kids and our country. •We worry about our finances. How am I gonna make payment on all these bills? What's gonna happen when the prices go up further and we are already stretched to the max? •We worry about our family members that just seem to keep taking a nose dive into addiction and self-destructive behaviors. •We worry about the tasks we have to do tomorrow…. and then the day after that and the day after that. •I worry that what's inside of me is not strong enough to deal with what happens to me. Worry is the spin cycle. It's circular. It's not just we think about the task, challenge or threat once and move on, it sticks with us. It's being concerned about something and playing that concern fear or anxiety over and over again in your head. In many ways it holds our thoughts and our emotions hostage. We are trying to deal with other things in our life, but it's like our brain is split and it's preoccupied with this mental spin cycle. I'm trying to be present with my spouse or my kids, but I can't shake the worry about how unstable work has been lately. It's got a hold on me and splits my attention. In fact, in the greek language the root word that gets translated into worry means to divide and separate. That's meaningful to me, because when I'm in a state of worry- i feel like there is a part of me that's divided. I'm not able to be present, I'm distracted. My body may be present but my heart and my soul is in the spin cycle of worry. There's all sorts of research about the effects of worry and stress. that is can actually kill a person. In fact, stress has been labeled as the silent assassin. Stress and worry along with anxiety can cause damage to a person's heart and create blood clots that keep a person's blood from flowing properly. Stress/worry and anxiety can lead to heart disease and eventually lead to a person having a heart attack. The trio of stress/worry/anxiety can be the one of the leading causes of high blood pressure, heart disease, ulcers, stomach problems, panic disorders, headaches, sleep disorders and chronic depression. There's a group of you, when you hear that, you start thinking: That sounds terrible, I should stop worrying. And the more you think about worry, and the more we talk about worry, the more you worry. You worry about worrying too much. That's why it will never work to simply say “Hey you know… have you ever thought about this— you shouldn't worry so much”. It's not enough to sing with Bobby McFerrin and say “don't' worry be happy”. When someone says that you just want to smack them. The problem is worry is an emotion that is competing for control over our lives. Worry controls our thoughts which control our actions. It becomes the filter through which we engage with the world. And maybe for a moment you can turn it off enough to manage that interview or make that new friend. But it's still in the background silently controlling us. And I know you and I know me- no one wants to be controlled by something other than themselves. So our goal is not to get rid of worry, but it's simply to be able to say to worry; “you're not the boss of me.” Worry, you aren't the boss of me. You're in my life, you are working to protect me from threats upon my life, But you're not gonna be the controlling force in my life. But what we do know is that worry is something that most of us struggle with- me included. I think Jesus was doing life with people who were living with worry as well. When Jesus showed up on the scene, he was surrounded by people whose felt needs were so pronounced that they couldn't get past them. •They were poor. •They were being taxed by an unjust government, and they had no means to protest that and they had no representatives to defend them. •They were being led by hypocritical religious leaders that had sold out to Rome. •They had their wealth stolen from them and there was no justice for them. •Their children were being confused with the infusion of Roman and Greek values. •They felt abandoned by God, no Messiah, no promises kept. And Jesus has the audacity to say to this very needy group and to us. 25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, Now just for some passage context: Jesus is describing what it means to be in the kingdom of God and he was encouraging them to approach life from an eternal perspective. Don't just live for these 80 years on this earth but for the 80 million years of eternity. And to do this he focused on their money. He know if he could get them to think eternally about their money, everything else would follow. For this reason; since we are to think eternally and not just temporarily… He says don't worry about your needs. Don't be anxious or fearful about the unknown. Don't' let these things consume your thoughts and emotions. You think you're gaining control of the situation, but the situation is really gaining control of you. Don't let that worry steer your life and rob your joy. Now, Jesus isn't calling for irresponsibility. It's not a “Don't worry be happy” bobby McFerrin song. You don't see Jesus living his life that way. He was a carpenter, he was a hard worker. He cared deeply about the pain and suffering around him and he took action and even had a holy discontent to make right the wrongs around him. When 9/11 happened, Redeemer Presbyterian in Manhattan grew from 2000 to 5000 in one week, because so many people were flocking to that church that Sunday. Tim Keller was preaching from John 11 where Jesus came to the tomb o this friend Lazarus. The text says that when he reached the tomb of Lazarus, Jesus was Deeply moved. Keller explained “the translators are afraid. The greek word here means “to roar or snort with anger alike an animal, line a lion or like a bull. SO the best translation would be “bellowing with anger he came to the tomb' that must as least mean his nostrils were flared with fury, it may even mean he was yelling. Jesus was angry at death. He didn't shrug it off. He was neither indifferent nor irresponsible with life and difficulty. On the contrary- he's active and he's concerned. But what he does is he immediately sets up two categories of need we are not to be anxious about. 25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. it's funny because often times my wife says “Hey i wish you'd think a little more about what you eat and put a little more thought into what you wear.” So first he says don't be anxious about your critical needs. These are things that pertain to your survival. Because you gotta eat and you gotta drink. Now maybe you worry about those things, but most of us may not worry about that, because at least we'll be able to get food from someone else. But for us, we are worried about our survival level economically and physically. •Will i be able to make ends meet? •Can we even put food on the table. Can we put good food on the table. •Will I be able to find a job that can actually pay enough to live here? But he also sets up non-critical needs— your body what you will wear (so things that have to do with our appearance or our reputation. •Some of us are worried about our advancement in our company. Will there be any opportunities for me here? Am I gonna hit a glass ceiling? •We may be concerned about our reputation - what are they gonna think about me if I'm still in this same position 5 or 10 years later? •How am I gonna compare with my brother in law who's business just keeps growing? •Will I get recognition for my hard work and faithfulness in this company? •Will I get married… I'm not getting any younger you know? •Will we ever get pregnant…. what if we never get pregnant?? What if the treatment doesn't actually work? •Will I get into my first choice of college? Because if I don't get into this kind of school, I never get this kind of job. •Will I get the deal, can we afford the house, will I ever find a dress for the event? And then Jesus asks us the first question - and it's so penetrating; Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? What is life all about? And whatever it's about, shouldn't that be the focus of your concern? Is life about simply surviving and looking good in the process? Or is there something more? Would having those two things really satisfy you? At the end of your life would you want someone to say “you know they survived— and they kept up appearances” If someone were to follow you around for a week and listen in on all your conversations and have access to your checkbook and Credit Card statement, would she conclude that life for you is simply surviving and trying to look good? Is that where your time and your focus are? Don't stop short by focusing on food and clothing. There is more to life than what you eat, and there is more to your body than what you wear. And then Jesus, probably pausing to point out what's around him. He offers a little perspective on our needs. He gives us two illustrations to put our critical and non-critical needs in proper perspective. 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. They aren't worrying a bit, and yet their critical needs are being met. Our heavenly father feeds them. It's not just their natural instincts kicking in- it's God establishing the food cycle and weather patterns, he's setup the migration patterns and natural events that cares for their critical needs. Are you not much more valuable than they? He's your heavenly father. He is merely their creator. But you are made in his image. He is particularly fond of you. So you don't need to worry. Jesus asks a question that is so profound, that it really needs to make us all pause a moment when we are tempted to let the spin cycle of worry continue. Even if you're unsure about following Jesus- you should listen to this question he asks because when you start to ask it- it will help you say “worry, you're not the boss of me” - the question he asked that was so powerful 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? Has worry ever contributed to anyone's survival? What is this worry adding to my life? Is it helping me live longer? Nope? Science tells us how negative it is. Is it helping me cope better, probably not. Is it helping my relationships? Not if i your worry is causing you to micromanage your kids decisions. When we start getting pushed around by anxiety, fear and worry, ask this question: can I add one hour to my life by worrying? Is it keeping you from getting sick?…. maybe…. for a while at least. But eventually, something you couldn't see coming or couldn't control from coming is going to make you sick. Even in the lockdown my family still caught bugs. It's interesting that in the original language, it also means how many of you by worrying can add a single cubit to your height. In other words, it's obvious that no amount of trying harder is gonna help you grow taller. In the same way, worry is not gonna make your life longer. Its not gonna make you happier, its not going to enrich your relationships, its not gonna make life better for you or you better at life- but there's one thing it will do- it will kill your contentment. Worry only makes your life worse. It doesn't bring any certainty in uncertain times. It only continues the spin cycle. Again, he's not advocating irresponsible living. He's not asking us to be foolish. Wisdom is always the right policy because it's God's policy. He's just telling us to do what we know to do and trust God to fill-in the gaps. 28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you— The emphasis here is not on survival, it's appearance. With no effort at all, these lilies look great. Have you ever seen flowers with colors that didn't work together? Of course not, they are stunningly made and stunningly presented. ILLUSTRATION God is an expert in fashion design. He's an expert in making things look good. He doesn't need any help or suggestions. The lily did nothing - when it was what it was made to be it was at it's best. Some of us are so concerned with looking good in front of other people that we fail to be who God made us to to be. We don't serve a vanilla God. He didn't hold back when he made you anymore than he held back when he created the lilly or the butterfly. To fear that God is going to make your life boring is to demonstrate limited knowledge of God. You need a good dose of the discovery channel. you need to visit the national botanical gardens- then cruise to your favorite clothing store- and tell me who is into color and variety. My point is; if God gave this much attention to detail on a plan that is going to die in a few days, what business do we have being worried about something; the dress for prom, the right tie, the killer car, the haircut. This is just image stuff. Then Jesus really boils it down: Oh you of little faith Here's the problem. We don't trust him. We don't' think he's interested in us. We think he has overlooked us. In times of worry and uncertainty, we think he has lost power. This is the message that God has been giving me. That my worry about things with the church's facility was really an issue of my disbelief in him. I didn't trust him. So I had to worry about it. You may not want to hear your pastor struggling with faith— but in my worry i wanted to get it all figured out because I feel like so much of the future is uncertain and I wanted to control it. But what God spoke to me is “scott, do you really trust that I'm going to provide for the church, and for you and your family?” The fundamental question I have to wrestle with is: Do I trust God? Then he repeats his command just in case we missed it… 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?' or ‘What shall we drink?' or ‘What shall we wear?' If we serve God who can be trusted and has proven it over and over again, we have no business worrying about all of that, it doesn't even make sense. 32 For the pagans run after all these things, This is what it looks like for a pagan. Now a pagan is not someone who doesn't believe in the supernatural. A pagan was someone who believed in the gods.... plural. And their relationship with the gods was at the whim of nature and circumstance at worse or it was contingent on their performance at best. If they did something that made their gods angry, they wouldn't have enough cabbages for the year. Their sheep wouldn't multiply. So they were always worrying that what they did was enough. They were always toiling, always spinning , always sowing, always storing up because while their god was pleased with them now, who knows how long that's gonna last? But Jesus would say “not so with you… because you're not a pagan…. you have a heavenly father- and he loves you”. So don't spend time seeking after those things; because that's what people who don't' trust God do. They run after those things- they are frantic about them. they worry about them. For them this is all that life is about— and who can blame them. But for a christian, when everyone else around us worries, when they run after those things frantically- we have a different provider. We have a heavenly Father who loves us. Its been interesting to watch my three children contending for resources in my home. The thing is I'm a third child as well. I have two older siblings and one younger brother. So I can remember those days of fighting over how many peanut butter wafer bars were left in the pantry or who is gonna get the last bowl of cereal. My siblings and I would have all out fights over who gets how much of what. I remember my brother and i would even fight in church over who would get the biggest piece of the unleavened bread in communion. (Tell story) Now as I watch my kids, I see it in them too. I see them hide food from the others, take it up to their room, I know because I find their dishes later when they haven't cleaned them up either. And every couple months when we have done a deep cleaning of their rooms, we'll move their beds away from the walls and find piles of wrappers. What they don't know is that they are really making a statement about what they believe about me. That I won't provide for them. That I won't care for them. What I feel like telling my kids is - You don't have to act like we never have food. We have plenty of food, and I recognize that you may not have the capability of replenishing food, I do. I'm not gonna let you go hungry - at least for long. I may press you into wise dietary decisions, but you're not gonna starve. So You don't have to worry. You don't have to hoard. You don't' have to manipulate or deceive. You don't' have to spin or toil about it. Because i'm your father and I love you. Your heavenly father knows that you need these things, and he has the power to provide for you. How would you live if you heard God say, "I know you need that; trust me”? Now Jesus answers the questions he posed in vs 25: what is life about? What are we to concern ourselves with? 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. What is the thing we are to spin and toil and labor for? God's Kingdom and his righteousness. That's what we are to be preoccupied and “worried” about. It's interesting that it's actually the same greek root word for running after/seek in verse 32- it's just there it has a sense of panic. Here it means to concern yourself with and to focus on that. So rather than getting spun up about impressing people at school by what I wear, we should be focused on building God's kingdom in our school. helping more people become kingdom minded people. Rather than isolating and running away from people who may make us sick, we should find wise and reasonable ways to engage people for God's Kingdom and trust in God's protection and provision. Rather than worrying about our rights being taken away, a kingdom minded person lays down their rights and preferences to build God's Kingdom. Instead of saying “well one day we'll have a church building, then we can advance God's kingdom here” We say “God how can we be faithful to build your kingdom in whatever the circumstances.” Being Kingdom minded rather than worry-minded shows tremendous faith and trust in God. And faith was the one thing Jesus was ever impressed by. Jesus says when you make God's Kingdom your center of focus, all these things will be given to you as well. Jesus says, "You look after my deal and I'll look after yours." Don't go through life stressed over stuff that I have taken responsibility for anyway. Besides, where do you think it all came from in the first place? The talent, opportunities, breaks, education, chance encounters. Did you think that was you? That all came from me anyhow. So Don't worry about your ability to sustain my blessings. Seek my kingdom. I'll look after yours. And the whole time God is asking, "Is there anybody down there concerned about my kingdom and my righteousness?" 1. Is anybody worried about disconnected people? 2. Is anybody worried about the next generation of teenagers? 3. Is anybody worried about the children who have never heard? 4. Is anybody worried about the people in other nations who still haven't heard? 5. Is anybody going to talk to your boss? Neighbor? Friend? Here's the promise: concern yourself with what concerns me and "all these things shall be added to you. You take care of my deal, and I'll take care of yours.” So what do you do? Memorize vs. 27. Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? Get up tomorrow morning and make the trade-just for the day. Say, "Today, when I begin worrying about me, I'm going to offload that on you and look for ways to further your kingdom. I'm not going to allow uncertainty to take a toll on my character. Worry, you're not the boss of me. PRAYER

What the Riff?!?
1988 - September: Metallica “...And Justice For All”

What the Riff?!?

Play Episode Listen Later Nov 1, 2021 49:25


Metallica got its start back in 1981, but their 1988 album ...And Justice for All would be the one to bring them mainstream success.  Today Metallica has an international celebrity status as a founding band of thrash metal, but at the time they were much less well known and considered inaccessible to mainstream listeners.  The band also saw a lineup change for this album, as their previous bassist Cliff Burton had been killed in a bus accident while on tour in Sweden.  Newcomer Jason Newsted would be the bassist to join Lars Ulrich on drums, Kirk Hammett on lead guitar, and front man and guitarist James Hettfield....And Justice for All was quite complex for a metal album, and a comparison to prog rock would not be out of line.  The lyrics are also deeper than the typical metal faire, focusing on the theme of injustice through corruption, censorship, and of course, war.  Musicianship had to be tight, as much of the work was fast, meriting the title "thrash metal."  While overall critical reception was quite good, the bass for the entire album seemed downplayed.  This is unfortunate, as the Newsted's bass work is very good.  However, the drums are quite powerful.The album was an unqualified commercial success, hitting number 2 on the Billboard 200, and charting for 83 weeks.  Metallica received a Grammy nomination for the album in 1989, controversially losing out to Jethro Tull.  Some of this commercial success is undoubtedly from a feel of competition the band experienced with the success of Guns 'N' Roses' "Appetite for Descruction."  Lars Ulrich did not want Guns 'N' Roses to be perceived as "harder" than Metallica.Metallica would go on to be one of the best recognized performers for decades to come, and are still touring to sold-out audiences today.Friend of the show John Lynch joins us to bring this album. ...And Justice for AllThis title track takes its title from the last four words from The Pledge of Allegiance.  The song chronicles justice miscarried, with lyrics like "justice is lost, justice is raped, justice is gone.  Pulling your streams, justice is done."  Much of the album is political, but the lyrics center around freedom of speech, freedom from war, and, well, justice for all.BlackenedA distinctive intro builds into this highly complex lead track from the album.  It is a protest against environmental catastrophe and/or war.  Musically it is straight out of prog rock, with multiple time changes and tempo alterations. OneThis well known song and video tells the tragedy of a man horribly wounded in war who is left with no connection to the outside world as he exists in pain and is kept alive by machines in a hospital ward.  The video uses cuts from a 1971 film entitled "Johnny Got His Gun."  The band bought the rights to the film rather than continually paying royalty fees. ENTERTAINMENT TRACK:Ornithology by Charlie Parker (from the motion picture Bird)This biographical film was about Charlie "The Bird" Parker, directed by Clint Eastwood.  STAFF PICKS:Smooth Up in Ya' by Bullet BoysWayne kicks off the staff picks with a hair metal glam metal band musically looking for a no-attachments one night stand.  This song would not make the top 40, but would be seen on MTV's "Head Banger's Ball." Love Bites by Def LeppardRob's staff pick is off the hugely successful album "Hysteria."  This was Def Leppard's only number 1 single in America up until this time.  Their producer, Robert John "Mutt" Lange, write this tune intending it as a country song.  However, Def Leppard decided to record it as a rock song.  Lange sings backing vocals on this track as well.Time and Tide by Basia Bruce's staff pick is a slower adult contemporary piece from Polish singer Barbara Stanislawa Trzetrzelewska, better known as Basia.  The song is about her unfulfilled love for her songwriting collaborator Danny White during a time when they both were in relationships with others.Simply Irresistible by Robert PalmerJohn closes out the staff picks with a song heavily played in 1988.  The video was well known - though simple - for its use of guitar-playing and dancing girls with short skirts and tightly pulled back hair.  It was...well...simply irresistible!  "She's so fine, there's not telling where the money went." INSTRUMENTAL TRACK:Good Lovin' by Bobby McFerrinActually an anti-instrumental cover of The Rascals piece finishes off the episode, as McFerrin performs all vocals an instruments either with voice or slaps on his body.

Virginia Schenck, known by the stage name VA, is an accomplished international vocal artist and jazz performer, utilizing both straight-ahead, spoken word, and free improvisation. VA is an imaginative vocalist with a broad stylistic reach. She can soothe her audience with a beautiful ballad, invigorate them with a re-imagined standard and challenge them with a powerful blast of free improvisation. Yet all of these aspects exist within one singular and unique voice. VA often spices up her shows with world music influences from her own vocal exploration and CircleSinging, which she studied under the legendary Bobby McFerrin. Last year, she was honored to perform with McFerrin as part of his Atlanta, Ga., CircleSongs concert. In addition to performing with him, Virginia was handpicked to put together the exclusive 12-voice ensemble that led McFerrin's CircleSongs for the concert. Read more about that here. A Florida native, VA came to Georgia after graduating from Florida State University. While her degree was in Music Therapy, she studied jazz piano, voice and dance. She started singing jazz gigs while in school and continued to perform after she launched her music therapy career. Her love of jazz was enriched through a friendship with drummer Jaimoe of the Allman Brothers Band. Performing regularly in Atlanta’s top jazz and music venues, her recent appearances also include New York & Seattle for a play with totally improvised music, “The Gift”, with aerial dancers at The Robert Mondavi Ctr/UC-Davis, St Patrick’s Cathedral/Dublin, IR, Chartres Cathedral/France, Kripalu Yoga and Retreat Center, and Rome, Italy. VA has released three critically acclaimed albums, which showcase her artistry. Her debut CD, VA (2012), generated serious buzz with jazz fans, immediately receiving global airplay with such artists as 2012 NEA Jazz Master, Sheila Jordan, who exclaimed, “Wonderful CD… Wonderful singer!” Her CDs, Interior Notions (2015) and Aminata Moseka: an Abbey Lincoln Tribute (2017) have followed similar suit. Her fourth album, Battle Cry (2020), is set for release on January 3.

Opera singer Peter Brathwaite shares his passion for five very different singers whose voices, artistry and lives inspire and move him, and whose stories he needs to tell. If you're asked to think of a groundbreaking singer called McFerrin, it's likely that Bobby springs to mind. But this undisputed vocal genius is in fact following in the footsteps of his father, Robert McFerrin Snr: the first ever African American man to sing at the Metropolitan Opera in New York. For Peter, Robert McFerrin's beautiful baritone voice, and his experiences singing on the global opera stage, resonate down generations of black men singing in opera. He both acts as a role model and offers insight into the cyclical nature of conversations about race and representation in classical music.

Episode 23 – Winters and McFerrin: A Tale of Two Baritones (Black History Month IV) Today's episode, the fourth in a sequence honoring African American singers, this one pays tribute to two great baritones, Lawrence Winters (1915-1965) and Robert McFerrin (1921-2006). Winters was a trailblazer on records and on stage at the New York City Opera and in major German opera houses; while McFerrin, the first African American male to sing a major role at the Metropolitan Opera, made his debut in 1955 as Amonasro in Aida three weeks after Marian Anderson made history on the same stage as the first black solo singer to perform there. This episode examines the early life and rise to prominence of each singer; the role that Porgy played in the careers of both singers; and each one's credentials as a Verdi baritone par excellence. Highlights include an excerpt from William Grant Still's opera Troubled Island, which premiered at NYCO in 1949, and a memorable cache of spirituals recordings from both singers. Guest aritsts heard on this episode include Todd Duncan, Camilla Williams, Marie Powers, Maria Stader, Adele Addison, Laurel Hurley, and Grace de la Cruz. Countermelody is a new podcast devoted to the glories of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great classical and opera singers of the past and present with the help of guests from the classical music field: singers, conductors, composers, coaches, agents, and voice teachers. Daniel’s lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody’s core is the interaction between singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Elena Mannes had music in her life "from the womb" and many musicians in her family, so it is no surprise that she is an award-winning author of a book and director of a documentary movie on music. The book is titled The Power of Music and the movie is The Music Instinct: Science and Song. The book includes great information about music and along with the movie are both listed on the Planetary Gigs Society website. The movie features musical luminaries Dan Levitin and Bobby McFerrin and provides a ground-breaking exploration into how and why the human organism and the whole ebb and flow of the cosmos is moved by the undeniable effect of music. Elena says, "The new science is showing how we are really wired for music in so many ways; we're wired to respond to certain harmonies, even infants." She also has a new book out called Soul Dog, about the spiritual lives of animals. Elena says, "We're all the same stuff."
