In a world competing for our attention, our guest this week admits: “It's probably harder to read novels now than it ever was.” But their value cannot be overstated. The novel's unique humanity, its careful and open treatment of the human experience, helps us to develop a sympathetic imagination, tuning our hearts and minds in a way that non-fiction argument simply cannot. Christopher Scalia, author of 13 Novels Conservatives Will Love (but Probably Haven't Read), makes the case that it is a distinctly conservative interest to explore the Western tradition through fiction. Recommendations in hand, he invites adults to refresh their reading list with novels—from the very inception of the form up to the present. Chapters: 1:47 The great book rut 4:11 Novels: the medium of recent Western tradition 5:30 The 18th-century bildungsroman 9:47 “Conservative” themes 16:18 The American dream in My Ántonia 22:39 Miraculous realism in Peace Like a River 29:02 Acknowledging the existence of evil 31:44 Wonder and encounter over strict interpretation 37:03 Revisiting works from your school years 38:47 Why narrative works 42:01 Books that nearly made the cut Links: 13 Novels Conservatives Will Love (but Probably Haven't Read) by Christopher Scalia Christopher J.

As DEI Initiatives come under attack, we must move beyond surface-level diversity and allyship to embrace our fundamental interconnectedness and mutual thriving. Quakers, according to our guest Niyonu Spann, are uniquely situated to speak profound truth into this pivotal moment. Niyonu is a teacher, singer/songwriter, community activator, and the founder of Beyond Diversity 101. In this episode, she invites us to confront uncomfortable truths about power, to find harmony in dissonance like a jazz musician, and to embrace the profound Quaker practice of discernment in a world crying out for genuine connection and "fiery love."Visit the episode page for a transcript, links and discussion questions.Join Friends General Conference for the 2025 Young Adult and Youth (YAY) Gathering from July 2-6 in Clarkston, Michigan, where our theme "Peace Like a River, Joy Like a Fountain" celebrates creativity, worship, and play in an inclusive, intergenerational Quaker community.

Is your life characterized more by peace or anxiety? What situations most commonly rob you of peace? Where is your focus in those times? Is it on yourself, others, circumstances, the unknowable future, or Christ? Who is more qualified to be the one in charge—you or God?

Marnie O. Mamminga has a chance encounter on a bridge.

Episode Notes October 20 message in our Sunday series, 'Becoming Like Jesus' 10.20.2024

This amazing story is told through the eyes of Reuben Land (aka Rube), the middle child in a motherless family living in the cold Midwest. He suffers greatly from asthma, adores his older brother, Davy (16 years old) and his younger sister, Swede (8+ she has a birthday– definitely one of the coolest siblings we've ever met from the pages of a book). Jeremiah Land is a father raising three kids on his own, but his full plate gets unbelievably fuller when life takes a disastrous turn. After he defends a girl being accosted by two thugs a  downward spiral begins.  Jeremiah's non-negotiable morning routine is his daily time in God's Word which gives him peace and guidance as he faces the trials and troubles life throws his way. Many lines flow like a cool stream but one that stuck with me was, “Fair is whatever God wants it to do.” Please join us as we recap Peace Like a River by Leif Enger, a beautiful book following the Land family through laughter, heartache, and healing. How blessed we were to meet this family! What a treasure!

This is a special musical presentation of When Peace like a River at Faith Lutheran Church in Okemos, Michigan

Bret Lott knows how to make a woman cry. Possibly a man, too, but I'm not sure. I know he's cried (sobbed, he admitted) when reading Leif Enger's book, Peace Like a River. I already liked Bret Lott but that made me like him even more.  Bret Lott, award-winning author of now 16 books (both fiction and non-fiction) didn't start out to become a writer and, in fact, met obstacles along the way. I'm glad he persevered; if you've read Jewel, one of Oprah's Book Club selections, then I'm sure you're glad as well. He wanted to ride a horse and be a Park Ranger. Grateful that didn't pan out.  Fun sidenote: Since I'm also from Southern California, it was a delight to find out that Bret used to work at Knott's Berry Farm at the candy apple booth and once-a-month he made waffles for Mr. Knott.    Bret is giving away a signed copy of his latest book out this month entitled: GATHER THE OLIVES, On Food and Hope and the Holy Land  - comment below or on social media to be entered! Born in Los Angeles in 1958, Lott grew up in Buena Park, CA and Phoenix, AZ before returning to California to live in Huntington Beach, CA. He met and married his wife of 40 years, Melanie Swank Lott, at First Baptist Church of Huntington Beach/Fountain Valley. A graduate of Cal State, Long Beach(1981), Lott headed to Massachusetts for graduate school at UMass Amhurst. He received his MFA in 1984 and landed his first teaching position at Ohio State Univ. In 1986, Lott joined the English Department at the College of Charleston, where he is now a tenured professor and director of the new MFA program and leads writers retreats to Italy. Find out more about his writing retreats here: https://bretlottwriting.com Be sure to comment below to be entered to win: Gather the Olives. Some gems: The difference between a good writer and a bad writer: the bad writer says, "Here I am, I have something to say." The good writer writes a good story and you're not aware he or she even exists. I write to try and understand things, why people do what they do and what happened to their lives. I shared a short story with a girl I liked. She wasn't impressed. I knew right then that I loved her.  Jewel was based on my grandmother's life. She had 6 kids and the 6th, my aunt, was Down Syndrome.  You're given what you're given in life; the writer's job and joy is to write the pages torn from that life and try to understand it better. The best art fills us with wonder and glory and mystery and beauty which are all manifestations of God.   

Dystopian novels aren't known for being hopeful.But that's exactly what Leif Enger brings to the genre with his new book, “I Cheerfully Refuse.” The beloved Minnesota author joined MPR News host Kerri Miller at the Sheldon Theatre in Red Wing on June 4 for a special “on the road” version of Talking Volumes. Their conversation revolved around books: the unpredictable journey of writing them, the sometimes haphazard way of finding them, the way a good book leaves a mark that cannot be erased. As Enger's protagonist Rainy says, “I banged and barged through dozens and hundreds of books. Did I understand it? Not by half, but when it thunders you know your chest is shaking.” Talking Volumes with Leif Enger They also touched on how to maintain hope when the world around you feels like it's going up in flames. “I Cheerfully Refuse” is set in the “near future” when climate change, wealth concentration and religious zealots who are proudly illiterate flourish. But Rainy and his cherished wife, Lark, “refuse apocalypse in all its forms and work cheerfully against it.” When tragedy strikes, and Rainy is forced to set out in a small sailboat on a near-sentient Lake Superior, hoping to reunite with Lark, the quest unfolds. Spoiler alert: Despair never wins. Guest:Leif Enger is the author of many books, including the 2001 breakout hit, “Peace Like a River.” His new novel is “I Cheerfully Refuse.” Before he became an author, Enger worked as a reporter for MPR News. He lives in Duluth with his wife, Robin.

Peace Like A River“You will keep him in perfect peace, Whose mind is stayed on You, Because he trusts in You.” (Isaiah 26:3)In Acts 6:8-7:60, we find the story of Stephen. He was chosen by the disciples to be one of seven to serve on their behalf in the ministry. The Bible describes him as a man full of faith and power, who did great signs and wonders among the people!Can I tell you what that equates to? He was full of the Word of God and the Holy Spirit!He was so full of the Word, that the religious people, who tried to catch him up in various arguments, being jealous of him, were not able ever to stand against him. The Holy Spirit gave him the words to speak in every situation. Because of this, because they were not able to stand against him in words, they resorted to spreading malicious lies about Stephen. I love Stephen's response!He was brought before the High Priest to answer for his supposed crimes of blasphemy which the religious peoples had been spreading in secret, behind his back.Stephen, full of the Holy Spirit, gives an entire rundown of the law and the prophets, from Abraham to Moses to David and up to Jesus, telling the religious leaders in no uncertain terms that it was they who had continually come against God by worshiping other gods and seeking to harm the prophets over the years whom God sent to point toward the coming Christ!The religious leaders were pricked in their hearts to the point that now they resorted to violence. They dragged Stephen out into the street and began stoning him. Again, I love Stephen's response! The Bible says, “Then he knelt down and cried out with a loud voice, Lord do not charge them with this sin. And when he had said this, he fell asleep.”Wow, now that is peace! That kind of peace can only come about by an intimate walk with Jesus, by being full of the Word and the Holy Spirit!I want you to notice the progression of the evil that came against Stephen, and yet no matter what, he kept his mind stayed on the Lord and on His Word, to the point of being put to death even for the sake of the gospel! And even in his final moments on the earth, he was able to forgive the very ones killing him, just like Jesus did! What an awesome man of God and what an awesome God we serve who supplies us with such peace like a river! Today, whatever you are facing, please know that Jesus offers us a peace that passes all understanding! He offers us His peace, not as the world gives, but as He gives! The world lies and cheats, they say one thing and do another, but Jesus is the same, yesterday, today, and forever! You can put all your trust in Him!So even if we are faced with what we perceive as the worst thing ever, we can have peace like Stephen, if we will just keep our minds stayed on the One who provides peace like a river!Be encouraged today!If you would like to support the podcast, please click below.Thanks so much for your prayers and support, Joshua Scott ZeitzSupport the show

Warren Haynes, Grammy Award-winning vocalist, songwriter, producer, and guitarist for the band Gov’t Mule, joins Lisa Dent to talk about his career, touring, and recording their two new albums Peace…Like A River and Heavy Load Blues during the coronavirus pandemic.

On this episode of Dipped In Tone, Rhett and Zach chat with special guest Warren Haynes. The Gov't Mule leader talks about the band's latest, Peace… Like a River. This record of originals was recorded simultaneously with 2021's Heavy Load Blues, in the same studio, using a completely different set of gear. “We setup all our normal Mule toys in the big room with the high ceiling, we setup a bunch of vintage gear, small amps, and old guitars … in the small room,” Haynes shares, as he details the differences in each rig and talks about his go-to blues rig, which includes vintage Gibson amps—“they were flying by the seat of their pants, a lot of it was experimental,” he says on why they're some of his favorites—a Supro, Alessandro, and more, plus a slew of vintage guitars, including Danelectros and Gibsons. “The surprise factor was part of it,” Haynes says. In the course of talking amps, Haynes might have let the cat out of the bag about a special project.What does it take to be effective when sitting in? “A lot of times,” Haynes explains, “I'm just trying to find something that fits and stay out of everybody's way.” Pragmatically, he later adds, “Really, the most important thing to remember is that the song's gonna be fine without your part, so there's no reason to feel like you have to do anything. When it comes time to solo, that's a little bit of a different story.” He later reminisces about sitting in with Bob Dylan, and, during his time as a member of the Allmans, having Eric Clapton join the band onstage.Big thanks to Sweetwater for sponsoring this episode.

Gov't Mule's twelfth record, Peace Like a River is somewhat of a departure from previous records. Perhaps it was being cooped up during COVID or the fact that the band got their blues out on last years Heavy Load Blues, but this one hits different. It's clear that front man Warren Haynes used the time constructing the songs on this record to hit harder lyrically but also explore sonic territories not yet explored by the Mule. I caught up with Warren to talk about the new record, many of the new songs and much more.   First song: Dreaming Out Loud (featuring Ivan Neville and Ruthie Foster) Second song: Just Across the River (featuring Celisse)See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What hymns and spiritual songs have encouraged you and impacted your life? In today's episode, John shares thoughts about the significance of one of his favorites.

In Romans 5, Paul talks about the effects of Christian justification–about the peace, hope, and joy that arise in response to being made right with God. In this session, we explore what it means for justification to change the life of an individual and how that experience is reflected in the example of an 18th-century woman named Abigail Hutchinson.
