on that Day: A Trilogy by Thomas Fitzhugh Sheets"on that Day" is a trilogy of books written without knowing how it all would end: Book #1: “The Death of The Promise,” Book #2: “The Resurrection of The Promise,” and Book#3: “The Land of The Promise.” The common theme of the trilogy was witnessing the faith of the First-Century Church, as demonstrated in the Parable of The Ten Virgins. The five wise virgins lived in anticipation and preparation for the groom, while the five foolish virgins were locked out. Paul's view of this faith is expressed in 2 Timothy 4:7–8. In Ephesians 4, Paul instructs teachers and preachers to bring unity of The Faith in The Body of Christ. Faith in The Second Coming and the awarding of eternal life fulfill the Promise of resurrection made to Abraham. Salvation is not awarded to anyone prior to this event but is a promise until Jesus' return and cannot be possessed this side of the grave. The author declares that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, and the perishable cannot inherit the imperishable.Thomas Fitzhugh Sheets is a seventy-six-year-old semi-retired businessman who, while never attending college, has had a reasonably successful career. He now lives at Providence Farm in Bedford County, Virginia, and has a beef cattle operation, raising calves for the feeder market. During discussions with a friend, a retired pastor, and a marine chaplain who has decided that he is “done with the church,” Tom was challenged to write a book. His friend understood his ongoing frustration with both the message and direction of the established church and felt that many others shared this frustration. Tom, who has a heart for the lost within the church, believes that the church has been hijacked by the instant-gratification crowd. Thus, he felt that he was challenged to address this issue, and as a result of this challenge, The Road to Restoration, The Death of the Promise, and The Resurrection of The Promise were developed.https://www.amazon.com/that-Day-Thomas-Sheets/dp/1959761382https://www.onthatday-timothy2468.com/http://www.ReadersMagnet.comhttp://www.bluefunkbroadcasting.com/root/twia/12723tfsrm.mp3  

Organizer Ed Koban talks about the Native American Music Awards, mental health, and more. Then, Hamadi Ali and Dao Kamara from the Providence Farm Collective share their stories of farming, culture, and community- touching on how they give back on the East side, and how they themselves need help to keep the collective growing.

Emily Doyle-Yamaguchi and Sustenance Host Bridget Holtom talk about what it means to them to take part in a movement for change, to stand together in solidarity. They navigate with honesty some messy but necessary questions about privilege, accountability and equity in community. We are all entangled in the struggle for reconciliation and repatriation, we are all part of the shared history of colonisation and oppression. As the festival organisers partner once again with Quw’utsun elders and traditional leaders to host Koksilah 2019, this compilation shares some of the highlights from Koksilah 2017. 2017 marked Canada’s 150th but also more than 500 years of Indigenous resistance to colonial exploitation and assimilation on turtle island. Koksilah Music Festival takes place in the unceded territories of the Quw’utsun People at Tuwe’nu (Providence Farm), at the base of Pi’Paam’ (Mt. Tzouhalem) in what is commonly known as Cowichan Bay, or Tl’upalus in Hul’qumi’num. Koksilah's intention is to highlight the perspectives of Indigenous musicians, artists, activists and knowledge keepers. Get tickets to this year's festival September 6-8 2019. Can't go? Donate Directly. All festival proceeds are donated to grassroots initiatives led by Indigenous people asserting sovereignty over their ancestral territories. These groups are working tirelessly to re-occupy and protect their traditional lands and waters, revitalize their cultural practices, and reconnect people with the land.

We have so many heartbeats, but we only have so many. How do you spend yours? How can you wake up to the possibility of what you can do to make your life speak. Listen to the rhythm of your life and use your feet to dance to the drum beat. Join Sustenance Radio host Bridget Holtom for a conversation with Travis and Craig from Mob Bounce about solidarity, music as medicine and the power of transformation and social change. Mob Bounce is a Hip Hop duo from Northwest Turtle Island, Canada. Their musicianship is half-Travis Adrian Hebert, half-Craig Frank Edes and half-a-whole-lot-more-than-you-can-imagine.

“This is all we’ve got, its a beautiful planet we live on…from the waters of Cowichan Bay and all the way to the rivers of the Koksilah and Cowichan Rivers, that is truly a powerful, powerful medicine within itself”. The opening words of this special episode are those spoken in the opening ceremony by Tousilum, a Quw’utsun elder who greeted those gathered for the very first Koksilah Festival. Koksilah festival is reconciliation in action. The festival is organised in recognition and celebration of the sovereignty of Indigenous Nations in the unceded territories of British Colombia, Canada. As the festival organisers partner once again with Quw’utsun elders and traditional leaders to host Koksilah 2019, this compilation shares some of the highlights from Koksilah 2017. Part 1: La kwala ogwa, Emma Joye Frank, was born on the K'ómoks First Nation Reserve in 1994, in what is now known as the Comox Valley, Vancouver Island, Canada. She spent her childhood being raised in Port Alberni, disconnected from her culture. Just before high school, Emma moved with her family to Victoria. After graduation, she was invited to the Tribal Canoe Journey to Bella Bella in 2014. This experience was pivotal in reconnecting Emma to her culture. Since then, she has pursued filmmaking as a way to express her perspectives as an indigenous person. During a Youth Media Project at the Comox Valley Art Gallery Emma created Hase'- Breath of Life. She also made this doc to educate folks about the K'ómoks Estuary: Project Watershed and at Reel Youth Invention Film Camp she created: Beachwalker with original music/vocals & performance! Emma recently moved to Vancouver to explore her creativity as an artist: musician, performer, filmmaker, facilitator. You can follow her work here.

In an unlikely place at an unlikely time, a group of black and white former sharecroppers, socialist organizers, and Christian reformers began an agricultural experiment in pursuit of economic subsistence and human dignity. Historian Robert Hunt Ferguson, in Remaking the Rural South: Interracialism, Christian Socialism, and Cooperative Farming in Jim Crow Mississippi (University of Georgia Press, 2018), makes the surprising case that the Depression-era Mississippi Delta provided the necessary conditions for the flowering of such an endeavor. New Deal policies inspired socialist optimism while their racial exclusions left displaced tenant farmers looking for work and attracted to enterprises like Delta Cooperative Farm and Providence Farm, which promised to break them from the cycle of debt and offer them equal access to the schooling, medical care, and opportunity enjoyed by the white middle class. These cooperative farms drew inspiration from the transnational communitarian movement and advanced the radical visions of the American Socialist Party and the religious left, including celebrated theological Reinhold Niebuhr, who served as president of their board of trustees. While the experiment struggled with agro-ecological obstacles and internecine power struggles, and ultimately could not withstand the postwar attacks of white supremacist movement, Delta and Providence stand as models of how those trapped within withering hegemonies imagine a most just and free society and set out to do the daily labor of bringing it into being. Robert Hunt Ferguson is an assistant professor of history at Western Carolina University in Cullowhee, North Carolina. He holds a Ph.D. from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, and his publications include “Mothers Against Jesse in Congress: Grassroots Maternalism and Cultural Politics of the AIDS Crisis in North Carolina” (Journal of Southern History, Feb 2017). Brian Hamilton is a Ph.D. candidate at the University of Wisconsin, Madison where he is researching African American environmental history in the nineteenth-century Cotton South. He is also an editor of the digital environmental magazine and podcast Edge Effects. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

I am very excited to have "Part Two" of my interview with Wesley Hunter of Providence Farm on the show today. On todays show Wes and I talk about some of the most important steps in raising a heritage breed chicken ... the eating and the marketing! There are challenges of course when it comes to raising meat chickens on pasture, but when it comes to your customers the most important challenge is the marketing and education. Wes has some great information about the results from his blind taste test and how some of the struggles associated with marketing a heritage breed (because they are different than most chickens found in the local grocery store ... in a good way). If you have any questions for Wes leave them in the comments below and he'll answer as best as possible. Through the help of a SARE Grant Wes was able to do some great on-farm research comparing a variety of heritage meat chickens for things like feed efficiencies, dressed weight percentage, total feed consumption, and even an unscientific taste test. It would not be a stretch to say this is one of the best sets of episodes to date! If you have any questions please leave them in the comments below and Wes or I will take time to answer them.

I have to admit that this episode (and the following episode) is one that I was very excited about doing for purely selfish reasons. I am super excited to have Wesley Hunter of Providence Farm on the show to talk about heritage breed meat chickens. This is a topic that is on my mind a lot because I just haven't been able to find a replacement for the birds that I was able to raise a few years ago.
