What do you do when you find yourself in a "strange land"—feeling spiritually homesick, weary from the climb, or wondering if you've wandered too far from the presence of God? In Psalms 101–150, the Psalter reaches its majestic, final crescendo, providing an unbroken anthem of mercy, divine guidance, and transcendent praise. Summary: In this concluding study of the Book of Psalms (Chapters 101–150), we explore the sacred culmination of ancient Israel's worship. From David's personal covenant to walk with integrity within his own home, to the grand 176-verse acrostic ode to the scriptures in Psalm 119, these chapters teach us how to transform every trial into "one more strain of praise." The King's Standard: We analyze Psalm 101, looking at David's 12-part pledge to set "no wicked thing" before his eyes and create a sanctuary of righteousness within his home. As Far as the East Is from the West: We dive into Psalm 103, examining the infinite reach of God's tender mercies and His divine understanding that "we are dust". The Cornerstone and the Hosanna: We unpack the Messianic majesty of Psalms 110 and 118, discovering how the rejected stone became the head of the corner and exploring the ancient background of the Triumphal Entry. The A-to-Z of Scripture Study: We deconstruct Psalm 119, the ultimate 22-stanza Hebrew acrostic, uncovering how hiding God's word in our hearts creates an internal lamp that keeps us from stumbling in the dark. The Songs of Ascent: We journey through Psalms 120–134, the ancient pilgrimage hymns sung as travelers ascended toward the temple in Jerusalem, discovering how to find peace in times of war and reap in joy after sowing in tears. The Final Doxology: We finish with Psalms 145–150, exploring the final five Hallelujah psalms and learning why Psalm 150 calls on every single instrument, element of creation, and "every thing that hath breath" to praise the Lord. Call-to-Action: Psalm 139 reminds us that whether we ascend to heaven or make our bed in hell, the hand of the Lord is still there to lead and hold us.

Ever wondered the secret to marriages that last 60 years? I heard about an elderly couple celebrating their diamond anniversary who shared their story: On their honeymoon at the Grand Canyon, the wife's mule stumbled, and she said calmly to the animal, “That's once.” When it stumbled again, she said, “That's twice.” The third time, she got off and shot the mule right between the eyes. When her husband asked why, she looked him in the eyes and said, “That's once”—and they never had another major disagreement! While there's humor in that story, the truth is that God desires for everyone who gets married to truly live happily ever after. When two people get married, it's God's will for that marriage to be a happy union instead of a civil war. He wants every marriage to end in celebration, not separation, enjoying marriage, not enduring it. That's why God's Word gives us a marriage example through an old love song: It's King Solomon's Song of Songs. In this book, you find the four essential keys to building a marriage that lasts.

Rockstar's Grand Theft Auto VI gameplay reveal shows the enormous scale of Leonida, including reports of an 80-hour playthrough and a map roughly three times the playable size of Red Dead Redemption 2.

The world lost a legend recently, and we wanted in some small way to pay tribute to the great Dolly Parton. So we're playing you an episode from a series we had a small part in back in 2017, Dolly Parton's America. The series kicked off with a simple question: How did the queen of the boob joke become a feminist icon? Helen Morales, author of “Pilgrimage to Dollywood,” gave us a stern directive – look at the lyrics! So we dive into Dolly's discography, starting with the early period of what Dolly calls “sad ass songs” to find remarkably prescient words of female pain, slut-shaming, domestic violence, and women being locked away in asylums by cheating husbands. We explore how Dolly took the centuries-old tradition of the Appalachian “murder ballad”—an oral tradition of men singing songs about brutally killing women—and flipped the script, singing from the woman's point of view. And as her career progresses, the songs expand beyond the pain to tell tales of leaving abuse behind. How can such pro-woman lyrics come from someone who despises the word feminism? Best to let Dolly tell you herself. EPISODE CREDITS: Reported by - Jad Abumrad and Shima Oliaee Produced by - Jad Abumrad with help from - W.

Plus: her complicated relationship with antidepressants, weathering fertility struggles, and aging in public. Sara Bareilles joins Dan to discuss her new album Good Grief, a record she made after losing three close friends — Chad Joseph, Gavin Creel, and poet Andrea Gibson. The conversation covers grief as a transformative force, medication and mental health, fertility struggles and miscarriage, the creative process as spiritual transmission, aging without intervention, and patriotism as grief.  In this episode we talk about: Grief is a shortcut to the truth — it strips away distraction and forces presence "Name it to tame it" — putting feelings into words reduces their power Sara's fear that medication would suppress her artistry turned out to be the opposite: Lexapro felt like "a return to herself" The creative process as clearing a channel rather than owning the output — music arrives, it isn't manufactured "Nothing to fix" — acceptance as a countercultural act in an era of optimization Acceptance isn't resignation — you can surrender to what is and still take compassionate action Grief of country: loving America and mourning what it's becoming aren't mutually exclusive Social media distorts your experience of reality — have your experience of the world in the world Sara Bareilles is a two-time Grammy winner and Tony-nominated composer whose music and lyrics powered the Broadway hit Waitress — a role she later performed herself, both on Broadway and in London's West End. On screen, she earned an Emmy nomination for Girls5eva and for her performance as Mary Magdalene in NBC's Jesus Christ Superstar Live!

There are passages in St. Isaac that can sound almost impossible to modern ears. His words on vigil are among them. “Do not imagine,” he tells us, “that among all the works of monastics there is any practice greater than night vigil.” We hear such words and immediately think of sleep deprivation, bodily exhaustion, long hours of psalmody, standing in darkness while the rest of the world sleeps. We wonder whether such a practice belongs to another age, another kind of human being, perhaps even another understanding of the spiritual life. But this is precisely where we can misunderstand Isaac. Vigil becomes incomprehensible when it is separated from desire. If we begin with asceticism, vigil appears severe. If we begin with love, it begins to make sense. The lover understands the night. There are moments when we do not want an evening to end because we are with someone we love. There are conversations in which we cease looking at the clock. A mother remains awake beside a sick child without calculating the sacrifice. Someone awaiting the return of the beloved listens for every sound in the night. Love changes our experience of time. And so it is with the saints. They did not remain awake because they despised sleep. They remained awake because they had discovered Someone for whom it was worth losing sleep. This is the secret of vigil. “That I May Be With You” The Fathers understood the spiritual life far less as the fulfillment of religious obligations than as the awakening of desire. Beneath fasting, silence, solitude, tears, prostrations, psalmody, and vigil lies a single movement of the heart: I want God. Not merely His gifts. Not consolation. Not religious experiences. Not even virtue considered as a possession. God Himself. This is why St. Isaac describes the mind of the one who keeps vigil as becoming light and buoyant, taking flight “as it were on wings.” The ascetic is not merely staying awake. Something within him is being released. During the day the mind is scattered among a thousand things. We speak. We answer. We plan. We remember. We anticipate. We defend ourselves. We attend to necessities. Even when these things are good, the heart becomes divided among them. Then comes the night. The voices diminish. The demands cease. The world grows quiet. And the soul discovers again the One whom it has been seeking beneath everything else. This is why vigil was so precious to the Desert Fathers and remains so in the teaching of the great modern elders. It creates a space in which the heart can become undivided. The night says: There is nowhere else I need to go. There is nothing I need to accomplish. There is no one before whom I need to justify myself. There is only God. And I am here. The Recovery of Wonder Yet there is something even deeper in Isaac's teaching. Vigil is not merely about attention. It is about wonder. Isaac tells us that the one who perseveres in vigil begins to “gaze upon” heavenly realities. His language is deliberately extravagant: the soul comes to possess “the eyes of Cherubim.” What does this mean? It means that purification changes how we see. The tragedy of fallen existence is not simply that we commit sins. It is that we gradually cease to be astonished by God. We become accustomed to everything. Accustomed to the Gospel. Accustomed to the Eucharist. Accustomed to the name of Jesus. Accustomed to the Cross. Accustomed even to the astonishing claim that the Creator of heaven and earth desires communion with us. And when wonder disappears, desire soon weakens with it. The Fathers knew that the heart must be awakened again. This is one reason vigil has such power. In the silence of the night, familiar words can suddenly become new. “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God…” We may have spoken those words ten thousand times. Yet in the stillness something can happen. Jesus. The Name becomes luminous. God is here. God sees me. God desires me. God has called me into existence that I might share His life. And suddenly prayer is no longer something we are performing. It is encounter. Wonder gives birth to desire, and desire gives birth to greater attention. Then the soul begins to understand why the saints stayed awake. The Vigil of the Lover This is why we must be careful not to turn Isaac's teaching into another spiritual program. Stay awake longer. Say more psalms. Sleep less. Accumulate hours. Isaac himself warns against precisely this distortion. A person may endure “prolonged psalmody,” weariness of the tongue, and “night-long standing,” and yet receive little fruit because the mind is elsewhere. The body is standing before God while the heart is wandering through the world. Isaac asks, with characteristic directness: Why sow so much seed if we continually prevent it from bearing fruit? Vigil without attention becomes habit. Vigil without desire becomes endurance. Vigil without love becomes religious achievement. And religious achievement can quietly feed the very ego that asceticism is meant to dismantle. The true vigil begins somewhere deeper. Stay with Me. This is the invitation hidden within the night. Christ in Gethsemane asked His disciples, “Could you not watch with me one hour?” Perhaps every vigil is, in some mysterious way, our answer to that question. Yes, Lord. I will stay. Not because I am strong. Not because I am an ascetic. Not because I want to imagine myself among the saints. I stay because You are here. Why Vigil Requires the Day This also explains something that Isaac emphasizes strongly and that can easily be overlooked. The vigil cannot be separated from the way we live during the day. If we spend the day deliberately filling the mind with noise, agitation, curiosity, argument, distraction, and endless encounters, we should not be surprised if those same things accompany us into prayer at night. Isaac therefore insists that the monk who desires the fruit of vigil must guard himself from unnecessary disturbance during the day. This is not contempt for the world. It is custody of the heart. The Fathers understood something about human consciousness that our age desperately needs to rediscover: what we give ourselves to leaves traces within us. Everything enters the heart. Images. Conversations. Arguments. News. Resentments. Fantasies. Fears. The opinions of others. The desire to be seen. The need to respond. The mind carries these things into silence. Thus vigil actually begins long before nightfall. It begins with how we guard the heart throughout the day. The School of Freedom This is one reason the disappearance of vigil from much contemporary Christian life is significant. We have not merely lost an ascetical practice. We have lost one of the great schools of desire, attention, and freedom. The modern world teaches us to flee silence. It places a device in our hand capable of filling every empty moment. It trains the eyes to seek novelty and the mind to expect constant stimulation. The Fathers move in precisely the opposite direction. Be still. Remain. Watch. Wait. Listen. Do not flee the emptiness. Because eventually you may discover that it was never empty. Someone was waiting for you there. The purpose of vigil is not to prove that we can conquer the body. It is to become free enough to recognize the presence of the Beloved. “I Sleep, but My Heart Is Awake” The goal, then, is ultimately something greater than remaining physically awake. The goal is wakefulness of heart. “I sleep, but my heart is awake,” says the Bride in the Song of Songs. There is the mystery. The deepest vigil eventually becomes a state of the soul. A person begins to live before God. The Jesus Prayer continues beneath thought. The remembrance of God becomes increasingly continuous. The heart waits for Him. Looks toward Him. Listens for Him. Desires Him. This is the angelic quality Isaac sees in vigil. The angels do not merely “stay awake.” They exist in ceaseless attention to God. Their life is beholding. And Isaac dares to say that through vigil the human person begins to participate in this same movement. The eyes of the heart open. Wonder returns. Desire intensifies. Prayer deepens. The mind grows light. And gradually the soul discovers that the ascetical life is not fundamentally a life of deprivation. It is a life of fascination. The Night Is Not Empty Perhaps this is what we most need to recover from Isaac. We will never understand the asceticism of the Fathers if we begin with what they gave up. We must begin with what they saw. They saw a Beauty before which the beauties of the world grew pale. They tasted a sweetness that made lesser consolations seem small. They discovered a Love so immense that solitude became communion, silence became fullness, fasting became hunger for God, and vigil became the refusal to leave the presence of the Beloved. This is why the teaching on vigil belongs so naturally beside the language of desire and wonder. The ascetic does not remain awake merely because a rule commands it. He has glimpsed something. And because he has glimpsed it, he wants to see more. Wonder awakens desire. Desire gathers the scattered heart. The gathered heart becomes attentive. Attention becomes prayer. And prayer becomes communion. Then something remarkable happens. What once appeared burdensome becomes precious. The night that once seemed long becomes too short. Silence that once frightened us becomes the place we long to enter. And the prayer that once seemed an obligation becomes something from which we are reluctant to depart. The saints kept vigil because they discovered that the night was not empty. The Beloved was there. And once the heart knows this, the deepest question is no longer: Why would anyone remain awake to pray? It becomes: How could love not want to remain? --- Text of chat during the group: 00:18:08 Bob Čihák, AZ: P 222, Homily 20 00:23:28 David Swiderski: The last time we discussed this and sleeping 8 hours straight and for most of time people at least in Europe slept "2" times I went back to my Grandfather's diary and it appears the wood stoves in Northern Wisconsin only lasted 4hrs and you would need to get up and feed the fire so they naturally did vigils and took advantage of the break in sleep. In Spain and Latina America they have a nap in some areas due to the heat (2 hour lunch) and are up till 1 or 2 am. It seems modern western society is a new adaptation of what was a practice for hundreds of years. 00:25:10 Ryan Ngeve: Father what is one to do if these practices and deprivations make us more agitated/irritated and downcast, especially towards  others, as they tend to do? 00:39:01 Gwen's iPhone: my cat does! 00:39:24 James Hickman: Is it safe to call vigils a means to the end, which is nearness to the Lord, such that a super practical means to find closeness with the Lord is this watching for him when there are fewer distractions (not that we are safe from distractions in the night, but that the many combating us in the day are perhaps different in kind or number than those distractions of the night)? 00:42:15 Rod Castillo: I pray my daily rosary at 2 am.  It's the only time the house is quiet enough to allow me to devote myself completely to it. 00:43:46 James Hickman: Reacted to "I pray my daily rosary at 2 am.  It's the only time the house is quiet enough to allow me to devote myself completely to it." with

Jeff Suggs emailed about how to shuffle music on Android: "Mark, I use the free version of Shuttle.  It allows shuffling by album or by song.  Keep up the good work on the Podcast" Alexander Randall 5th emailed: "Good morning in balmy Great Britain. Ah ha! The music only is Thursday. Thank you for that.  I'll ignore what arrives early and capture the tunes on Thursday. I work with words and the talk version interrupts my train of thought. I usually edit the show in my audio editor and take out the songs with singers.   I like that music but i cant work with singing… Over time I mash up a dozen of your shows, (instrumental music only and then let that run for hours. The music only version is just that much less editing to get to my goal. Keep it up. I love the show I do listen to the word version sometimes just to hear if I made the comments section." Jim emailed back in February: "Dear Marc Gunn The Irish & Celtic Music Podcast first landed in my feed when I was still carrying an iPod. I'd listen to the current episode and catch up the previous installments on the drive to and from work. Learning about various Celtic bands from all over the planet expanded my world view and allowed me to support those independent artists. I applaud your response to last week's challenging criticism and offer my financial support (finally) for the podcast. You will not be getting a photo showing what I'm doing while listening to the podcast because it's my companion during house work. As they say on Firefly, "See you in the verse". PS The Wicked Tinker's "Aiken Drum" (Big Bottle of Bad Ideas) is not a contemporary rebel song, but may help illustrate your point."

Fifth-time guest Lisa Harper is back — fresh off a whirlwind trip through England, Wales, the Netherlands, and Scotland, and still nursing the jet lag. Between hug-ministry theology, Levi's 75-day merino wool shorts experiment (Lisa remains skeptical), and a surprise moment praying with a stranger in a London store, the conversation turns to Lisa's new book on the Song of Songs — unpacking how the Bible's most intimate book taught her that God delights in her, brokenness and all.

The 2006 Tour was considered to be the last "monster" run of Pearl Jam's career with over 80 performances marked in a full calendar year. One of their most memorable runs took place in September in the heart of their European tour as they spent five shows touring historic locations in Italy. The run was so momentous that it received a concert movie directed by famed music photographer, Danny Clinch, called Immagine In Cornice that documented performances in Verona, Milan, Torino and Pistoia. This episode features coverage of the Verona show from the historic coliseum that they played back in 2000. The documentary gives ample time to provide stories of the venue and it's history dating back to 30 AD, and puts emphasis on the importance of Pearl Jam playing there. When the band took the stage, a hard rain fell from the skies making a song that's already very spiritual in Release feel monumental in the environment, especially in the storm. What followed was exactly what you'd expect from a 2006 show - big time anthems played at blistering speeds. Songs like Do The Evolution, Grievance, Corduroy, World Wide Suicide, Blood and Rockin' In The Free World are some of the best examples of that treatment, but you can't have a 2006 show without the legendary Even Flow performances with a massive drum solo from Matt Cameron. We'll talk about the film and our favorite memories from it as well as a gauge of the fans preferences as we compared the fast paced 2006 sets to the performances from other eras that feature more of a groove.

I never got to see Dolly Parton live, and that's something I'll always regret. But here's the thing about Dolly — you didn't have to meet her to feel like she taught you something. She showed all of us what it looks like to work hard, stay kind, and never let success change who you are at your core.Today I'm doing a full off-topic episode dedicated to her. Honestly, I think Dolly might be the most universally loved person on the planet — country fans, pop fans, people who've never heard a country song in their life — everybody loves Dolly. That's rare. That's special.In this episode I'm breaking down:Songs and projects Dolly worked on that most people have no idea she was even part ofThe insane records she's broken across music, theme parks, and pop cultureEverything she's given back — from the Imagination Library to funding vaccine research to helping her own hometownThis isn't just a tribute. It's a reminder of just how much one person can do in a lifetime. Rest easy, Dolly. Thank you for everything.

What do you do when your sins feel too heavy to carry, when your closest friends turn against you, or when you look at the world and wonder why the wicked seem to prosper while the faithful suffer? In Psalms 49–101, the psalmists give voice to our rawest cries, leading us from the depths of personal brokenness straight into the healing sanctuary of God. Summary: In this moving exploration of Psalms 49–101, we walk through the second major collection of the Hebrew Psalter. Moving between searing prayers of confession and breathtaking anthems of praise, these chapters provide an emotional and spiritual compass for every trial of mortality. The Agony of Confession: We dissect Psalm 51, David's brokenhearted plea after Nathan confronted him regarding Bathsheba. We examine what it means to offer a "broken and a contrite heart," asking God not just for a pardon, but to "create in me a clean heart". The Sting of Betrayal: In Psalm 55, we explore David's lament over being betrayed not by an open enemy, but by an equal and trusted companion—a passage that powerfully foreshadows Judas's betrayal of Jesus Christ. Envy and the Sanctuary Perspective: We study Asaph's crisis of faith in Psalm 73, where his feet almost slipped while envying the ease of the worldly—until he entered the sanctuary of God and understood their end. Tears in a Bottle & God's Memory: We dive into Psalm 56, discovering the tender truth that God numbers our wanderings, stores our tears in His bottle, and never leaves us to face mortality alone. Divine Potential and Council: We analyze Psalm 82, exploring the divine council and the Savior's quotation of verse 6 ("Ye are gods") to understand the balance between human humility and divine heritage. Entering His Gates with Praise: We conclude with the exuberant joy of Psalm 100, examining the seven invitations to worship and the remarkable story of how the Spirit prompted B. H. Roberts to read this exact psalm in a moment of public trial. Call-to-Action: When your heart feels overwhelmed, David pleads: "Lead me to the rock that is higher than I" (Psalm 61:2).

Many of us keep a journal, but few of us are able to turn our unvarnished thoughts into cultural moments touching on love, death, and guitars quite like Phoebe Bridgers. Her new album Lost Weekend isn't just throwing the pages of her personal life into song, it's much more than that: A beguiling, hyper-compositional meditation on the last six years of her life. The genres range from bluegrass to electronic, and collaborators pepper the record – from her boygenius bandmates Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker, to Americana outfit Nickel Creek, to a mysterious presence who may or may not be Geese singer Cameron Winter. The end result is one of the most immersive and heartbreaking albums of the year thus far, transforming the specificity of one person's story and observations into a universal reflection on life's fragility.

O3L's Metal Mayhem continues, but this week we're talking about a different kind of heavy metal: the kind you drive. From “Rocket 88” to “Little Red Corvette”, the automobile has long been a popular subject in song, representing freedom, escape, prosperity, power, control, solitude, safety, danger, or passion.  Some artists simply sing about cars because cars are cool. Much like a classic ‘57 Chevy or ‘69 Rambler, our Third Lad this week is an American treasure.  Ben Vaughn is a singer/songwriter who has built an eclectic catalogue of wry, literate songs, from the roots rock of The Ben Vaughn Combo in the ‘80s to power pop, garage rock, folk, easy listening, country, Tex Mex, surf, TV (3rd Rock from the Sun), and movies (Psycho Beach Party)…you name it and he's probably done it.  Healso hosts the weekly syndicated radio show The Many Moods of Ben Vaughn and performs regularly in the U.S. and Europe. Vaughn is known for producing artists such as Ween, Arthur Alexander, and Charlie Feathers, and for collaborations with Alan Vega and Alex Chilton. As the leader of The Ben Vaughn Combo and through his solo albums—including the cult classic Rambler '65, recorded entirely in his car—he has built a devoted following in his native Philadelphia, his adopted home of L.A. and beyond. His songs have also been recorded by artists including Marshall Crenshaw, The Morells, and Deer Tick. Get revved up and ready to go! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

The Proclaimers have only had a handful of hits but they're songs that have kept expanding for nearly 40 years. And the World Cup was a reminder of how far they've reached. Craig and Charlie Reid talk to us here about first adventures onstage, talent shows, the tour circuit, the new album ‘You May Offend' and … … the moment the Proclaimers took off … first records bought in Woolworths in Fife (including the less-than-prophetic World Cup anthem Easy Easy) … the fraternal voices of the Everly Brothers … seeing Joy Division supporting Buzzcocks and feeling “the heat and charisma” of Ian Curtis … the unique way they write songs … getting royalties when your hits are sung in televised football stadiums … their first gigs playing Stones, Kinks, Clash and Pistols covers plus a Talent Show in '77 on a bill with “a lassie singing Scottish ballads and possibly a performing dog” … recording at Rockfield and the ghost of Bohemian Rhapsody ... their new video imagining John & Yoko as they might be today … how easy it is to offend Gen-Z … and hitchhiking 60 miles to see Hibs and writing ‘The Joyful Kilmarnock Blues' about it.

Mientras nos preparamos para la segunda mitad del año de El Sonido: Cancioneros, abrimos los archivos oficiales de KEXP para revisitar algunas de las sesiones Live on KEXP más memorables de artistas latinoamericanos, iberoamericanos y caribeños que han pasado por nuestros estudios. En este octavo episodio viajamos a Chile de la mano de Javiera Mena, una de las figuras pioneras y fundamentales del pop electrónico latinoamericano. En 2006, Mena lanzó su álbum debut, Esquemas Juveniles, un disco que ayudó a definir una nueva sensibilidad para el pop independiente en español, combinando sintetizadores, melodías pop, intimidad y música de baile. Canciones como “Sol de Invierno”, “Esquemas Juveniles” y “Cámara Lenta” se convirtieron en parte del cancionero de una generación y consolidaron a Mena como una de las voces centrales de la escena independiente chilena de los años 2000. En 2026, mientras Esquemas Juveniles celebra su vigésimo aniversario, regresamos a esta sesión de 2017 para revisitar la obra de una artista cuya influencia continúa atravesando generaciones del pop electrónico latinoamericano. Suscríbete al canal de KEXP Podcasts en YouTube para disfrutar de estos episodios especiales en video con subtítulos en inglés y español. Una producción original de KEXP en español.

In this eighth episode, we travel to Chile through Javiera Mena, one of the pioneering and defining figures of Latin American electronic pop. In 2006, Mena released her debut album, Esquemas Juveniles, a record that helped shape a new sensibility for independent Spanish-language pop. The album brought together synthesizers, pop melodies, intimacy, and dance music. Songs including “Sol de Invierno,” “Esquemas Juveniles,” and “Cámara Lenta” became part of the soundtrack of a generation and established Mena as a central voice in Chile's independent music scene of the 2000s. Recorded live at KEXP in Seattle in 2017, between the Otra Era period and the release of Espejo, this session captures a pivotal moment in Javiera Mena's artistic evolution. In 2026, as Esquemas Juveniles celebrates its 20th anniversary, we return to this performance to revisit the work of an artist whose influence continues to resonate across generations of Latin American electronic pop.
