In the series finale of the 23rd Psalm, Pastor Scott talks about the confidence that you can have in God, His Word and His Promises. You weren't meant to carry the burden of doubt around all the time. Yes, there are times we do doubt but we are not to stay in that place. As we look at the 6th verse of this great psalm, it is our prayer for you that you can be as certain as David was about God's love for you! Good Samaritan is a Christian church in the southwest part of the Las Vegas valley.

In this podcast, Pastor Scott and Natalee Butler, Youth Director, at Good Samaritan Church in Las Vegas, NV talk about the fourth verse of the 23rd Psalm. In the series entitled "Releasing Your Burdens" we are examining how God's Word can help us get rid of the burdens we were never intended to carry. The burden of the fear of the grave and the burden of grief are both dealt with in this podcast.

Scott Hove is an artist whose primary medium is perspective. He has manipulated his art viewers psychologically and literally for decades, and his work is more poignant than ever. He asked our hosts to sit down and talk as Bay Area natives about what the recent Oakland fire means for DIY, artist-run, and under the radar spaces for creation, and make some plans for the future. This is a heavy episode and one with a lot of potential action on the other end, but also one of our most broad discussions. We hope you enjoy it and contact us if you have any interest in learning more about permitting with us and addressing our community's needs with us.

For the exhibition This End Up: the Art of Cardboard we created this short promo video. The film features a work in the exhibition called Cakeland by artist Scott Hove and is a sequel to a previous video that the museum produced called Road Trip. You can view that video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M_rmqK... Special thanks go to Scott Hove for letting the museum film in his studio and to Sibby's Cupcakes for allowing us to film in their bakery. http://www.mshove.com http://www.sibbyscupcakery.com *************************************** Bronze, marble, stainless steelcardboard? In fact, many of the most highly esteemed artists, like Robert Rauschenberg, Frank Gehry, Joan Brown and Manuel Neri, have experimented with cardboard as an artistic material. Both relatively inexpensive and ubiquitous, cardboard affords artists the ability to work on a large-scale that might not be otherwise possible. In this exhibition, artists challenge the limits of cardboard by investigating topics ranging from formal concerns to social commentary and engineering. Oakland-based artist Scott Hove paints and embellishes cardboard transforming its dull, brown surface to a delectable, pink, frosted cake. Exploring the sculptural quality of cardboard, Tobias Putrih carefully carves the material revealing organic forms with dynamic surfaces. Ranging from large scale installation to two-dimensional objects, this exhibition demonstrates the almost endless artistic possibilities of this everyday material. This End Up: the Art of Cardboard runs from November 8, 2008 through February 15, 2009
