Send us a textStories have always been part of our world. From antiquity, stories create the light that help us find our way through the darkness. We need to rediscover those stories to help us face the dragons in our lives. Join us tonight as we listen closely to the summer wind play among the alders and hear a very old story that understands our modern world. Journal entry:3rd July, Thursday“Walking up the hill. The grass crackles and scrunches With each step.If I closed my eyes I would have said I was walking through deep snow If it were not for the hum of bees And the wind that wraps me in warmth.”Episode Information:In this episode I refer to the tale of Lludd and Llefelys as told in the Mabinogion. A very good retelling of this story can be found in Amy Jeff's (2021) Storyland: A new mythology of Britain.

Series: Psalm 23Sermon Title: He Leads Me Beside Still Waters (Part 2)Main Scripture: John 7:37-39 - On the last day, the climax of the festival, Jesus stood and shouted to the crowds, “Anyone who is thirsty may come to me! 38 Anyone who believes in me may come and drink! For the Scriptures declare, ‘Rivers of living water will flow from his heart.'”Synopsis: One of the primary roles of a shepherd is to lead their sheep to drinkable water, as sheep need a consistent source of clean water in order to survive. This week we look at the last of three primary sources for sheep to experience still waters, and how Jesus ultimately fulfills our need for consistent water.

Send us a textJoin us on a quiet night of summer rain as we listen to rooks and explore the beauty and ambiguities of two liminal places with a lot in common. We learn about the web-footed fenmen and are guided by Luke Sherlock to a ruined church under haunting skies. Journal entry:6th June, Friday“We walk through the sheep field As the rain pours down. My boot socks still wet from last night. The rooks muster noisily at the One Oak.Even the magpies' cackles cannot wake The lambs still asleep Nestled beneath the blackthorn hedge.” Episode Information:In this episode I read Edward Storey's ‘You walk the roof of the world here' and Jeff Moore's ‘The worked land.'

Send us a textWelcome to tonight's episode where ‘Erica's Place' by Mindshambles awakens a kaleidoscope of reminiscences about Mum and ‘elevensies' and her never ending supply of fresh scones. As the different memories flow and glide past, it slowly becomes clear how much of ‘Erica's place' and Mum's philosophy still lives on and unconsciously shapes these podcasts. Welcome to Erica's place. Journal entry:20th May, Tuesday“The yellow flag are out. Unfolding the origami of their petals From the squashed chrysalis of their buds.Yellow iris arrives flat-packed To be assembled without sound Held only by a dance of air and light.” Episode Information:In this episode I read the first verse of John Betjeman's ‘Upper Lambourne' and a short extract from Miles Hadfield's (1950) An English Almanac.

Bonjour! New episode out now! We watched the first episode of the French crime show Candice Renoir. We discuss our enjoyment of Candice and her approach to policing, drawing on her intuition and skills as both a professional and a mother, and how that causes strife within the team she is placed in charge of. We talk about the challenges in understanding some of the nuances in a different language and culture, but how that also made it fun. We touch on the somewhat mysterious and confusing hierarchy used by police and military units, discuss the pros and cons of doing procedural television for multiple seasons, and try to pronounce French names and terms with varying success. Katy sneaks in a Seinfeld reference, Carrie has read this whole show, Maddy tells a fun hospital story about weird brains, and Mack got Inception-ed by Aretha Franklin. We also believe being called “Barbie” is not an insult, wonder how much fandom can really influence media, enjoy foreign media's depiction of Americans, and discover Discord is amazing for pun-based comedy. We touch on gay Star Wars characters, Paul Blart Mall Cop 2 marking the passage of time, Columbo, and the marimba. Apprécier!TW: Child abuse, sex work, suicide, fatphobia, misogyny

Anxiety Hates Psalm 23 #RTTBROS #NightlightAnxiety Hates Psalm 23 #RTTBROS #Nightlight The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me; thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the LORD for ever.(Psalm 23, KJV)Last night my sleep tracking app said I got just 3.5 hours of sleep. My dreams were troubled. Satan brought an old problem to the forefront of my mind to give me a spirit of fear and anxiety. I was still agitated on the way to work at 5 this morning then God showed up through Leanna Crawford's song "Still Waters".This song eased my mind and refocused my heart on him...I am safe...my family is safe...God's got this. Here is the song may it minister to your heart today. Anxiety Hates Psalm 23Great Aunt Maurine said at a hundred and threeWrite scripture on your heart for when you need itCause anxiety hates Psalm 23So just say it to yourself 'til you believe itAnd I'm feeling like I'm needing it right nowThe Lord is my shepherd, I shall not wantHe leads me by still waters 'til my fears are goneThough I walk through the valley of the shadow of deathO I know You are with meMy father, my friendYour goodness and mercy will follow me all of my daysI know by Your still waters I'm safeLord I believe You can set me at easeTurn this broken piece in me to peace and quietI know there's power in Your wordSo I'll say it over and over til my soul's remindedApplication Points:1. Memorize Scripture for Spiritual Battle: Like Great Aunt Maurine wisely advised, plant God's Word deep in your heart before the storms come. When anxiety strikes, Psalm 23 becomes your spiritual weapon.2. Speak Truth Over Your Fears: Notice how the Psalmist declares "I will fear no evil" in the very midst of the valley. When anxious thoughts invade, speak God's promises aloud until your emotions align with His truth.3. Remember God's Presence in Dark Valleys: The Psalm doesn't promise absence of valleys but presence of the Shepherd. Your circumstances may not change immediately, but knowing you're not alone changes everything.4.

Send us a textAlong the towpath, the battle between winter and spring has begun with days of warmth and days of sleet. Although even the young ducks teach us a lesson in conflict avoidance. Join us tonight as we celebrate the lives of two people who were central to the creation of Nighttime on Still Waters. Journal entry:12th March, Wednesday.“The day winds down.A last walk along the canal side.Pebbled rings form in the open water.A kick of sleetDrives against my face.Captivated by the golden sunShining through rain mist.Such unimagined golds.Behind meA pale rainbowBows and fades to such majesty.” Episode Information:This episode is dedicated to the memory to two people without whom this podcast would not have been created: Michael Goode and Clifford DeHaven. Among many things, Clifford was a great musician. One of his musical incarnations was as 'Mournful Hornet' which seemed to capture his offbeat character and heart. You can hear him on SoundCloud. I also read the words of Meg Kara (Poetic Meg).

Send us a textAlong the towpath winter slowly fades. If we are not quite in spring yet, we can feel it close at hand. Join us tonight as we celebrate the shifts in light and tone across the landscape and from deep within. Journal entry: 26th February, Wednesday“For me, there are few things more beautiful and soul inspiring than this: Rain on water, Old growth by the waterside, Time-bleached reeds Standing like Nepalese prayer flags. The song of home. Signals of transcendence.”Episode Information:In this episode I read following poems:‘Winter' by Frank Mansell ‘XXXIV' by Idris Davies (adapted by Max Boyce ‘When we walked to Merthyr Tydfil')I also read excerpts from Book of Seasons by William Howitt (1833) and The Golden Age by Kenneth Grahame (1895).

What is really happening at the Stilfontein mines, weeks after the entire nation's attention was first pulled to the unfolding tragedy as the police, the community and miners were in a standoff? This edition of Level Up interrogates this with Mametlwe Sebei, attorney with the NGO “Lawyers for Human Rights”, to get a deeper understanding of this layered story. In this conversation with Phumi Mashigo, find out the complex circumstances that have led to hundreds of dead bodies being extracted from the mine, hundreds more facing uncertain legal futures and why Sebei implores South Africa to relook at its treatment of miners.

Send us a textA winter's night on the canal, starless and wind gnawed. A snug cabin with a warm stove. A hot drink in a favourite mug (and a biscuit or two). A cosy chair waiting for you. It's just the perfect kind of night to curl up and listen to some accounts about life on the canals in winters past, when the ice was 2ft 6in deep. Journal entry:14th February, Friday "Steel-grey half-light. Rooks swing round the naked oaks. The daily clamour of heading for home; Roosting time.Their exuberant crow song And sense of life Fill me with a nameless emotion.It's something about A longing for home."Episode Information:The two readings featured in this episode are: ‘The Great Frost of 1895' by Monica Bennett and ‘Day of the ‘Iceberg' by Ron Whatley. They both can be found in Up the Cut: An anthology of inland waterways edited by Ivan E Broadhead, published in 1994 by Alan Sutton Publishing.

Send us a textIt's a bitingly cold, sleety night. There's a warning of snow in the forecast for later. It's a perfect night to sit together around a warm stove snug inside the Erica's cabin, while the wild world rages outside. The kettle is singing, the biscuit barrel is full. The night belongs to us. Journal entry:7th February, Friday.“Yesterday's spectacular Blood-orange dawn Has given way to a dawn Without colour or feeling.We pick our way between Rutted potholes of slippery mud To the Magpie's scalding laugh.A wicked wind cuts In from the north-east And reminds me that I am, After all, an embodied being.”Episode Information:In this episode I read ‘Where does Comfort's Bosom Glow?' by John Clare from his Madrigals and Chronicles: Being newly found poems and ‘The Darkling Thrush' by Thomas Hardy (1900). I also quote from William Blake's (1796/7) The Four Zoas (Night the Second). With special thanks to our lock-wheelersfor supporting this podcast.Kevin B.

Send us a textThere seems to be an awful of change happening recently, often unasked and with far-reaching consequences. Knowing how to deal with it can be difficult and lead us to feeling unbalanced and overwhelmed. Tonight, we try to find some still-points within the chaos. Journal entry:23rd January, Thursday“A robin, one winter, Riding out a sleety squall On the flailing branch Of pyracantha fire.He often springs to mind When squalls hit And my world lurches Fearfully beneath me.I wish for his poise And his ability to find And surf upon the Still-point of chaos.”Episode Information:In this episode, I talk about Orange Cookie's beautiful ‘Still Waters and Nighttime Bats' tea towel that is inspired by this podcast.

Tonight, we reflect on boat (and other) life in the times of hard frost, the trials of swan and kingfisher life, and we finish with a short reading from Tom Rolt.

Send us a textI am probably not the only one feeling a little disoriented and uncertain about what the upcoming year will hold. While it is great to have plans and dreams, these are not always possible and sometimes, I think, not even desirable. There are times for wisdom to be silent and for the 'undreaming' to occur before we can begin to discover new music and new dances. Journal entry:1st January, Wednesday“A dawn of tobacco and salmon And racing clouds.A solitary raven rows Swiftly against the current of the day.Hacking cough and aching limbs There is more than one way to enter a new year.”Episode Information:In this episode I give a short update to why there was no Christmas episode this year and we welcome in 2025.

More Than a Song - Discovering the Truth of Scripture Hidden in Today's Popular Christian Music
Send us a textThere's a phrase I often use in my prayers for others. I pray that God will go before them, behind them, and that His hand of blessing will be on their heads. Little did I know that Leanna Crawford's song "Still Waters (Psalm 23)" would guide me to a place that beautifully depicts our Father's conduct. Nor did I know how refreshing God‘s words would be during turbulent times.Writing Scripture on your heart for when you need it is good advice. And Psalm 23 is the perfect place to start.In this episode, I discuss the following:Taking a B.I.T.E. out of Scripture – this week's Bible Interaction Tool Exercises include: Internalizing ScriptureMeditation RepetitionImaginationStart with GodConsult an outside resourceEpisode GuideInternalizing scripture, then repeating it out loudKeith Ferrin's Bible Talk interview with Mike Santoro - YouTube VideoMike's Bible memory card website - https://bsbversememorycards.carrd.co/Committing the words of Psalm 23 to memoryRehearsing the words of Psalm 23 to calm my spiritGod speaking His words back to me regarding my situationThe historical context of some of the phrases in Psalm 23 Being led by the Good Shepherd - John 10:27 - Episode #479making it our goal to know the Word, not just the wordsBeing hemmed in by the Father in Psalm 139:5Using the title of my novel, A Seat at the Table, to inspire a study of tables in ScriptureKenneth Bailey's commentary, The Good Shepherd: A Thousand Year Journey from Psalm 23 to the New Testament - Amazon paid linkAdditional ResourcesLyrics - New Release Today LinkThe story behind the song "Still Waters" by Leanna Crawford - New Release Today Article by Kevin DavisThree-part video series on "Bible Memorization for Normal People" by Keith Ferrin - Video #1, Video #2, Video #3Learn more about my favorite Bible Study Software with a 30-day free trial and links to my all-time favorite Bible resources - Logos Bible Software Affiliate LinkThis Week's ChallengeRead Psalm 23 and then take the challenge to internalize the words.

Today we have the HONOR of having my new friend Leanna Crawford on the pod! I am personally geeking because her songs (like How Can You Not See God and Still Waters) have ministered to me for SO LONG. In this episode we talk all things: How God can HANDLE your depressive, anxious, mad, angry, and fearful thoughts Why it's so important to have high standards for who you let speak over you The promise our personal God to carry out what He has called us to (even when we want to quit) I pray this blesses you friend!
