关于这个播客 🔗
Stories and tales from a guitar-picking writer, theologian, speaker, blogger and entertainer. From small town quirks to the bizarre realities of family, whacky church life and slightly damaged kinfolk, insights from a reluctant son of the South takes you along. Never know where it’ll end up but it’s sure to be worth the trip.

Walter Brueggemann once wrote that before Israel in ancient times could hear God’s word, they had to grieve in order to understand what they had lost. Forgetting 9-11 dishonors that day. It was a terrible day, not in the way the deluded anarchists intended, but a day that caused the world to stop...

The blues can teach us to have a sense of moral seriousness, a steely ethical and spiritual backbone that continues to hope without collapsing into a giddy, almost pre-teen naivete about spiritual matters, in which all is victory, glory, and joy, which requires a selective, edited memory of ourse...
These little boys were in the daycare that I would go to every now and then; we had a member of the church that ran this little daycare, it was just called Miss Henrietta's. And I went down to Miss Henrietta's one day and the little boys came home, Justin and Luke—I don't know whi...
"Son House was a Baptist preacher that lost his way. Fact is, I've been doing these sermons, I've been very disturbed at how many Baptist preachers turned into blues people. Or they were children of Baptist preachers who went bad. I don't know what to make of all of that. But ...
As a part of the 2009 series at Vestavia Hills Baptist Church, Dr. Beth McGinnis, Assistant Minister of Music at the Church and Professor of Music at Samford University, led a conversation with church members to better understand the connections the blues have and what it can help us to better un...
"Don’t ever say to anyone who has lost someone, “This is God’s will” or “I know God has something wonderful in this.” Let them have their loss. Do not put a band aid on a deep wound. What God has in this, God does not need your anxiety to show them. Just be there. Sing the song with the...
A sermon preached in 2009, a series about the blues. We were in the midst of enormous economic distress, if you remember, and it seemed fitting to revisit these words about blues music and troubled lives at the intersection of the stories of the Bible. David, Jeremiah, and Robert Johnson in conve...
Julia Ward Howe, who wrote the "Battle Hymn of the Republic," asked Senator Charles Sumner to come to the aid of a needy citizen. When Sumner turned her down with the excuse that he had grown too busy to concern himself with individuals, Howe replied, "Charles, that's remarka...
The problem with our sense of “where the problem is” is that we are like the people of Gadara. When you ask, “Where is evil?” they would point to “that man over there.” We’re pretty sure the problem is “out there” somewhere—bad people, bad institutions, bad laws, bad luck. But Jesus in the gos...
It is rather peculiar that a holiday so connected with abundance and the numbering of blessings would have begun as gratitude for bare survival, but fitting. Thanksgiving is the recognition of our dependence on God, not the congratulating of ourselves. We are blessed, but not deservedly. Life ...
