Why is it important to be unified as the Church during the election? Listen in to this conversation between Dr. Gary Singleton, Pierce Vanderslice, and David Barrett as they discuss the importance of Church unity – even when we might vote differently.

Sometimes, believing that God is truly in control of all things is easier said than done. Listen in on this conversation between Dr. Gary Singleton, Pierce Vanderslice, and David Barrett about trusting in the sovereignty of God in the midst of uncertainty!

How does knowing that God is sovereign and the importance of Church unity change the way that we act? Listen in to this conversation between Dr. Gary Singleton, Pierce Vanderslice, and David Barrett and hear practical ways that we can love our neighbor and glorify God through our voting this election year!

Summary of the Passage (Matthew 6:1-4): Jesus once again promotes humility and trusting in God's counter-cultural lifestyle, just as He has in the previous weeks. This time, Jesus discusses giving to the needy and how this action should stem from a love for God and understanding of who He is instead of a desire to be praise by God or man for “being a good person.” He promises us in verse 4 that our Father will see us in secret and that will be enough. Discussion Questions: 1. Verse 1: Prideful Giving - What is wrong with wanting the glory for ourselves? What harm can come upon us and others if we exalt ourselves above God? 2. Verse 2: Earthly Versus Heavenly Rewards - What reward do you think the hypocrites have already received? How is this reward less than the reward our Father in Heaven will grant us? 3. Verse 3: Left and Right Hands - What does the hyperbole of the hands mean? 4. Verse 4: Secret Serving - In your hard of hearts, do you truly trust that God sees you and that you do not have to win the approval of Him or others? What would change in your life if you lived like you truly believed this verse?

Summary of the Passage (Matthew 5:13-20): In this passage, Jesus uses the metaphors of salt and light to describe the influence and role of His followers in the world. He emphasizes that they are to preserve goodness and bring light to darkness, making a visible impact through their actions. Jesus also speaks about His relationship with the Law, explaining that He came not to abolish it but to fulfill it. He calls His followers to a higher standard of righteousness, surpassing that of the religious leaders of His time. Discussion Questions: 1. Verse 13: Salt of the Earth: - What does it look like to "salt" in our daily lives? What are some practical ways to preserve goodness and add favor to our communities, workplaces, homes, etc.? 2. Verses 14-16: Light of the World: - What does it mean to let your light shine before others? Can you share an example of a time when your actions pointed others to God? 3. Verses 17-18: Fulfillment of the Law: - How did Jesus fulfill the Law and the Prophets? What does this fulfillment mean for us as His followers today? 4. Verses 19-20: Righteousness Surpassing the Pharisees: - What does it look like to have a righteousness that surpasses that of the Pharisees and teachers of the law? How can we strive to live out this higher standard in our own lives?

Explore the changing landscape of storage rents, financial considerations when investing, and the benefits of single asset syndication and funds for LPs. Get ready for a deep dive into the self-storage sector with an experienced investor with Jacob Vanderslice, co-founder of Van West Partners. About Jacob VandersliceJacob Vanderslice is the co-founder of VanWest Partners, which focuses on commercial real estate, including adaptive reuse retail and multifamily properties. Since 2015, they have specialized in self-storage acquisitions and development, with Jacob leading the investor relations team and leveraging his 15+ years of experience in investing and operating self-storage facilities.Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation:[06:21] Self-storage performance during economic uncertainty[13:18] Considerations for acquisition or development decisions[26:07] Consider your financial goals when investing in storage and other fund vehicles[27:55] Why analysis for storage is complicated[29:07] The changing landscape of storage rents[31:56] The pros and cons of the fund to the LPEpisode Highlights:[26:07] Consider Your Financial Goals When Investing in Storage or Other Private Fund VehiclesWhen investing in storage or other private fund vehicles, consider your financial goals. Quick exits for high IRR and low multiples may be appealing, but relying on short-term exits in the current market conditions requires caution. The past trends of compressing cap rates, rising rents, and low cost of capital may not be sustainable. Instead, focus on long-term cash flow, depreciation benefits, and potential capital appreciation. Seize opportunities without banking on immediate sales and be prepared for a longer investment horizon. [29:07] The Changing Landscape of Storage Rents: A Cautionary TaleWhen evaluating storage investments, it's important to be cautious about relying on historical rental rates. Traditionally, investors would analyze T12 rental data, but with evolving consumer demand, this approach is no longer reliable. Acquisitions are now based on more recent data and current market conditions. For example, in Lakeland, Florida, there has been a softening in the market, leading to anticipated rent decreases. It's crucial to access up-to-date information and adjust expectations as historical benchmarks may not reflect the current landscape of storage rents.[32:56] Exploring the Pros and Cons of Single Asset Syndication and Funds for LPsSingle asset syndication provides control and focus for investors who prefer choosing specific deals and markets. However, if an investment underperforms, there are no other sources of value creation to offset the negative performance. Funds, on the other hand, offer geographic and cash flow diversification through multiple properties, balancing out underperforming investments with successful ones. LPs have limited say in deal selection and market decisions in funds and may face challenges such as filing multiple state tax returns. While single asset syndication allows for precise deal selection, it carries higher risk. LPs should consider their preferences and risk tolerance when deciding between these investment options.

According to industry experts, storage space is in high demand, and it's expected that the self-storage industry will grow in size and demand as the years roll by. In a detailed conversation with Jacob Vanderslice of VanWest Partners, a top-notch self-storage operator, the intricacies of this booming industry are delved into.

Rain welcomes John Vanderslice to LaunchLeft today.  John launches Spacemoth, and together we discuss how getting away from the handbook and taking risks can make a lasting piece of art. John doesn’t hold back on his views of creativity, production, artists' treatment, and more. Spacemoth joins in to discuss recording studios and her music. Stay tuned to the end to hear Spacemoth’s vibey track ‘UFO Bird’.  -----------------  LAUNCHLEFT OFFICIAL WEBSITEhttps://www.launchleft.com  LAUNCHLEFT PATREON https://www.patreon.com/LaunchLeft  TWITTER https://twitter.com/LaunchLeft  INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/launchleft/  FACEBOOK https://www.facebook.com/LaunchLeft  --------------------- LaunchLeft Podcast hosted by Rain Phoenix is an intentional space for Art and Activism where famed creatives launch new artists.

They are constantly looking for gems in music and others. Sometimes when “accidents” happen in the studio, they can result in fantastic music. Collaboration in music is the key to making lasting records while the artists have fun and find joy in making them.   BIOGRAPHY:  The Reintroduction of John Vanderslice by Grayson Haver Currin Nearly 20 years ago, or just after the start of this century, John Vanderslice made some of his generation’s most masterful singer-songwriter records. Life and Death of an American Four-Tracker, Cellar Door, Pixel Revolt: Every year or so, he’d release another set of engrossing songs set expertly on edge, vulnerable excavations animated by a new dawn of endless-war unrest. Those albums sounded like little else, each blown-out drum line or warped calliope melody or sun-baked synthesizer layer a testament to Vanderslice’s laborious process and tireless ingenuity. (There were rumors, possibly true, he once cut 500 hours of tape for a single album.) This dovetailed, of course, with his emergence as a keen analog revivalist and the proprietor of one of the best studios in the country, San Francisco’s Tiny Telephone. But on a sunny winter day in his gently sloped Los Angeles backyard, feet from the little green cabin where he now makes music, Vanderslice beams as he disavows all of it. “I went from this scrappy dude who wanted to own a studio to someone able to record in a big room with a full orchestra, like fucking Frank Sinatra, the end result of an obsession with songwriting,” he says of his maximalist apogee, 2011’s White Wilderness, brushing hair so blonde it sometimes seems white from his suddenly trenched brow. “I should have wrapped it up right there—no more tape, no more reel-to-reel, no more linear format. Let’s blow it up. It took me a long time to learn how.” Let’s round it, in fact, to a dozen years: Crystals 3.0—the culmination of a span of ecstatic experimentation with harsh noise and hard drugs, curious samples and cascading sequencers—is both a new pinnacle for Vanderslice and the manifestation of a revelatory outlook. A seamless 19-minute sequence of melodies so memorable they belong in an ice cream truck, static bursts so meticulous they belong on a Merzbow tribute and beats so spring-loaded they belong on a trap record, Crystals 3.0 applies the unencumbered enthusiasm of vintage Vanderslice records to his ideas about breaking old molds, about avoiding easy interpretation. “Songwriting is inherently conservative, and I just don’t have the mindset to write something like ‘Exodus Damage’ again,” Vanderslice, now 55, says, grinning broadly in his contagious way. “I want to make music that poses more questions than it answers.” The essential elements here are nothing unprecedented for Vanderslice. He was, after all, the sample guy in his acclaimed band of ’90s weirdos, MK Ultra, and his approach to crosshatching rhythms and hooks in playful patterns betrayed a love of hip-hop and electronica at least since 2004’s Cellar Door. During pandemic lockdowns, though, a budding fascination led him to embrace those elements unabashedly—drugs, from acid and coke to mushrooms and MDMA. After years as the songwriter who didn’t drink on tour for fear of how it might impact his craft, the spoils of a libertine Los Angeles became distinct tools, allowing him to tunnel into his creativity in distinct ways. He would build electronic trances on ecstasy or up the mushrooms on recording days, looking for unimagined connections. During 2022, Vanderslice would often sit in his backyard studio in some pleasant psychedelic state and work while a film—maybe something by the Maysles Brothers or Frederick Wiseman—played in the background. If something caught his ear, he’d often weave it into the music, using the distortion inherent in those decades-old documentaries to counter the rigidly clean tones of digital instruments. No context, just the serendipity of overlapping moments. Those samples populate Crystals 3.0 like reawakened ghosts, maybe guests of honor at one of the drug parties Vanderslice throws in the backyard with his partner, Maria. The whole dense little record feels like a distilled fête, its 13 overlapping tracks functioning as fragments from conversations and encounters. Bits of singing that might have fit on Pixel Revolt about sequences that Chicks on Speed would have loved; celebrations of jungle drums run into sunken-keyboard miasmas, like an old friend pulling you aside to deliver some bad news. Vanderslice spent a year building, sorting, and stitching together these pieces; despite the brevity, you may spend just as long trying to unpack every layer, and decode every secret. It is no mystery that the music Vanderslice made at the start of this century is no longer in supreme vogue, not a source of major cachet. He’s not only OK with that but also invigorated by it, the way it permits him to pursue whatever excites him. When he talks about music, he hopscotches between modern rappers and classical composers, abrasive producers and Charles Mingus, beaming as he goes. He gloats about one day dying broke, about creating with no master plan except what’s right in front of him. “You have to move on to more challenging silos,” he says, “or you’re just going to be a boring fucking artist.” Named for a novel method of synthesizing pure LSD, Crystals 3.0 overflows with youthful vim, the sense that to settle into an old pattern is to be dead already. If you have previously loved John Vanderslice, you will hear him here instantly, whether it’s that familiar warble during “Crystals 26” or the way he cavorts with hooks. If you’ve never known him, you will instead instantly hear a mind on post-modern fire, trying, like always, to make sense of our modern mess. This side of John Vanderslice’s sound hid in plain sight for two decades on records that remain essential because of those very interests; it has never sounded more full, dauntless, or thrilling than on Crystals 3.0.   RESOURCE LINKS Podcast - LaunchLeft John Vanderslice - Website John Vanderslice - Twitter John Vanderslice - Facebook John Vanderslice - Instagram John Vanderslice - Bandcamp - Website John Vanderslice - Wikipedia Spacemoth - Website Spacemoth - Bandcamp - Website Spacemoth - Instagram Spacemoth - Twitter Spacemoth - YouTube
