The Jesus Music Movement was new, fresh, loud, and exciting for people who had never heard Christian music sound like anything more than a traditional hymnal or Christmas song. Tracks of Light host Rudy Grande shares a story about Jamie Owens Collins, American Contemporary Christian music composer, singer, and songwriter. She said, “They (church leaders) didn’t like the music we did, but they gave us the room to do it because that was the gift God gave us at the time so that we could lead a generation of people.”

“God started something back in the ’60s and ’70s, and it’s still here today. He is waking up a lot of kids today with their own kind of music that I may not like, but you know what; it is ministering to this generation,” Rudy said. Listen to Tracks of Light Saturdays at 8:00 pm and Sundays at 6:00 pm on 88.3 KLYT or online worldwide at https://www.klyt.fm/.

Their website declares, “We believe that broken dreams are more than just endings; they’re also opportunities for new beginnings. The sadness and hopelessness can give way to peace and joy and restoration!” Shanteyl said, “What sets us apart from the trafficker (in the eyes of the child victim of sex trafficking) is our love for them, relationship, taking the time to respect them, and respecting their choices.”

Volunteers, financial resources, and supplies are needed to help young people held captive in sex trafficking. For more information, go to https://www.nmdreamcenter.org/.

Clarence Washington Sr. said that the tenants of “our founding documents are self-healing,” He is the author of a new four-book series called Hijacked: How Dr. King’s Dream Became a Nightmare.  In Volume-4: “The Recovery,” he says, “The weeds have almost taken control of the garden because the watchmen on the walls, the pastors and other spiritual leaders of our nation, have fallen into a spiritual stupor—knowingly or unknowingly supporting the hijackers. And so, in many cases, because of the lack of discernment by the church, the hijacking political-social-civil activists and liberal-thinking religious institutions are determining the thinking of the people who claim to be the blood-bought body of Christ. A good example of this is that the majority of Black Christians who attend traditional Black churches in America are confused about the spiritual content and substance of Dr. King’s dream. They are confused about what it means and how they should apply it to their daily Christian lives and their politics in particular.”

Jennifer talks about shame and guilt regarding food and intentional eating in this episode. In her recent article “Freedom From Shame and Guilt,” she says, “It might be helpful to begin to understand if you have specific patterns of sin related to your eating.  For example, are you elevating your health, body, or food as more important than God? Are you overeating frequently in search of comfort or pleasure? Is your time at the gym more important than time in God’s word? Do you turn down offers for dinner with friends due to your diet restrictions? Do you walk into a room and compare your physical appearance to others in the room?
