Matteo I can't show you, I can suggest tips to you. are you willing to hear them? #1, stay away from all secular music and videos take it from someone who got spoke to on that. it pulls you away from Christ. it doesn't honor him, it doesn't lift up his name or point to Christ. it has a spirit behind it that is fleshly demonic and not good. go on YouTube and type in they sold their souls to rock in roll, watch it then you'll understand, I pray your eyes will be opened to just how bad the world it is when it comes to the music industry. your buddy m&m is on it. #3. get baptized at vox church in Middletown were having a baptism celebration. march 1st at five thirty pm. why don't you attend. #4. plug into a online community group through vox, you need a community of believers around you, to hold you accountable to help you grow in your faith to encourage you to help you stay on the right path.to challenge you to step into all that God has for u, #5 STAY away from Hauser and men like that who abuses and uses women like objects. stay away from modeling agency guess and all bad influences again take my word for it. I know what I'm talking about. I hope this is helpful

#3: “And just because we say the word, "Amen,” it doesn't mean this conversation needs to end. Let us pray, let us pray, everywhere in every way. Every moment of the day, it is the right time. Let us pray without end and when we finish start again. Like breathing out and breathing in, let us pray.” – Let Us Pray sung by Steven Curtis Chapman Song lyrics make for memorable quotes. At least they do on this list of my top 20 most popular email signature line quotes. Nine different songs are featured on the quote countdown, three of them Christian tunes, including the one above from contemporary Christian musician Steven Curtis Chapman. In these trying times, people look to music to inspire and uplift them. People responded to this song lyric because it was a positive reminder that there was something they could be doing throughout their day to encourage and improve their day. And if you know the song, it is a very catchy tune to hum or sing all day long as a reminder to pray as well. In a sense, the power of prayer took this quote all the way to #3 on the countodwn of the most popular quotes.

Keep Doing Good Stuff - An unreleased album that I created for self, 6 years back, a music of hope and inspiration to always do the right thing, the good thing, no matter how much of wrong has been done to you and others or how much of a bad state you are in. While album is yet to make it to the world, these four letters and couple of stories already created on Keep Doing Good Stuff blog and gram, inspired a handful of people! And today again. I just wanna say to self and all here: Keep Doing Good Stuff There is no better thing to do, ever. Why do otherwise? In life, at work, and every aspect of life in between and beyond, we always have the ability to Keep Doing Good Stuff To do good. To do right. To move forward in pursuit of what got you started in the first place. To do what you can in pursuit of righteousness and common good. To do what your conscience says yes to. Keep Doing Good Stuff

How we show up for the world can look a lot different than how we show up for ourselves. ~PJ W. I am a true Marvin Gaye fan - but not for the reasons you might think. I actually became even more of a fan after reading his biography and realizing how imperfect he was. I think it is common for us to look at celebrities and elevate them in my minds to be flawless. Not the case my friend...He was absolutely flawed. Marvin struggled with liking himself, addiction, toxic relationships with family and lovers and oddly enough confidence and terrible stage fright...but he was also an Icon and a Legend. Proof that two seemingly opposing things can be true at the same time. Don't compare yourself to anyone, no matter how famous or how fabulous. We all have our stuff.

As an African-American choir director, the call and response tradition has been the heartbeat of my musical and spiritual upbringing. 🙏🏾 This practice isn’t just a theory of music - it’s a profound theory of relationship that reinforces the immense value of human connection. 👥 To truly engage in this vital call and response process, we must be willing to be vulnerable, putting our authentic selves out there for the group. 💗 But it’s a two-way street - the real power comes when we actively listen and creatively incorporate the feedback, allowing it to shape us in the moment. 👂🏾 This openness doesn’t just make us better musicians or speakers, it draws us into deeper, more meaningful bonds with our community. 🕊️ Embracing the vulnerability and active listening of call and response is how we build the sustaining, empowering connections that have uplifted the Black church for generations. 🙌🏾 Who’s ready to raise their voice and respond? mic drop🎤 #TedTalk #tedxtalks #CommunityBuilding #vulnerabilityisstrength #ActiveListening #whatcommunitysoundslike #blackchurch #ourstoryisone

NEW EPISODE! In our fascination with #STEM education, are we losing something vital by squeezing out the arts. It is precisely in its rich and diverse #aliveness perhaps that music, and other arts, hold so much possibility. Check out this week's conversation with the incredible Eric Dozier! With a couple of stunning songs performed by Eric too! Eric and Tim talk about: 🎵 How does music connect us with ourselves? 🎶 How does music connect us with each other, and build community? 🎵 How does music offer other ways of knowing and transferring cultural knowledge? 🎶 How do black and indigenous cultural ways of knowing get marginalised by white supremacy culture? 🎵 What does it mean for a teacher (like a choirleader) to hold space for transformation?
