Cause it is my honour To cry for you Blessed are the ones who weep Cause every tear is proof Of ties that bind so strong and deep That death cannot undo So it is my honour To cry for you I've got more than a hunch That you're somehwere so good It'd be wrong to come back Even if you could I will see you again But until I do It is my honour To cry for you Blessed are the ones who weep Cause every tear is proof Of ties that bind so strong and deep That death cannot undo So it is my honour To cry for you There's a lump in my throat There's a knot in my chest But the ache in my soul Tells me I am blessed Cause when the sorrow is great The love is too And it is my honour To cry for you I guess grief is the work That love must do So it is my honour To cry for you   In Memoriam  Music and Lyrics by Steve Bell Album: Wouldn’t You Love to Know   Fresh tendernesses burgeoned with the dying of my dad I love him all the more for it He lived his life for others’ gain His death, he gave away the same And I love him all the more for it   This son was fiercely fashioned By his father’s dappled life The way he loved his children The way he loved his wife My dad was hardly perfect But I hardly give a rip I loved him all the more for it   Not scandalized by brokenness Not scandalized by pain But Dad could not abide the curse And hellishness of shame He’d absorb another’s failures And return them as a gift We loved him all the more for it   My father was a trumpeter Those days have long since passed He passed along his passion to me Eager as I was We’d sit for hours and listen To the Tijuana Brass I loved him all the more for it   I tenderly remember When a beauty left me rent I was too young to consider then That love is never spent He told me pain would linger And would likely leave a dent I loved him all the more for it My dad was a believer He believed that God is good He was certain Jesus lived To show how everybody could And that all our earthly sorrows Couldn’t be the final writ I loved him all the more for it   My father was a fortress  For my two sisters and I And more-so for our mom Who suffered so much of her life He taught us how to live  And then he taught us how to die We loved him all the more for it   Fresh tendernesses burgeoned  With the dying of my dad I love him all the more for it

  • John Newton's Amazing Grace: The Man and the Story Behind the Song -with guest Dr. Bruce Hindmarsh

    John Newton's Amazing Grace: The Man and the Story Behind the Song -with guest Dr. Bruce Hindmarsh
    May 24 2023
    John Newton’s Amazing Grace: The Man and the Story Behind the Song -with guest Dr. Bruce Hindmarsh Bruce Hindmarsh holds the James M. Houston Chair of Spiritual Theology at Regent College in Vancouver. He has published and spoken widely to international audiences on the history of early British evangelicalism. His recent book, Amazing Grace: The Life of John Newton and the Surprising Story Behind the Song, co-authored with Craig Borlase, offers a dramatic biography of John Newton, the 18th century slave-trader turned abolitionist who penned the poem, Amazing Grace, that has become the near universal hymn of humanity in the western world. Bruce joins Steve to talk about this page-turner of a dramatic biography which will also yield a feature-length documentary in 2024. WEBSITE: www.brucehindmarsh.com Books by Bruce Hindmarsh: Amazing Grace: The Life of John Newton and the Surprising Story Behind the Song  By Bruce Hindmarsh and Craig Borlase (W Publishing Group, an imprint of Thomas Nelson, 2023) Newton’s story is shocking, and Amazing Grace does not try to airbrush or excuse his faults. There are glaring contradictions in the life of a ship’s Captain who retreats to his cabin to study his Bible and write tender love letters to his wife while hundreds of slaves lie in chains in the hold below. The Spirit of Early Evangelicalism: True Religion in a Modern World By Bruce Hindmarsh (Oxford University Press, 2018) The Spirit of Early Evangelicalism sheds new light on the nature of evangelical religion by locating its rise with reference to major movements of the 18th century, including Modernity, the Scientific Revolution, and the Enlightenment. Hindmarsh draws on a wide range of sources to make meaningful connections between the evangelical awakening and the history of science, law, art, and literature.  For Christ and His Kingdom: Inspiring a New Generation By James Houston and Bruce Hindmarsh (Regent College Publishing, 2013) Dr. Hindmarsh presents the need for intellectual and spiritual integrity as essential to paradosis, the transmission of a living faith to the next generation, while Dr. Houston provides a compelling case for a fulsome theological understanding of the person in Christ as intrinsic to an authentic Christian education that avoids the reductionism of secular viewpoints. The Evangelical Conversion Narrative: Spiritual Autobiography in Early Modern England By Bruce Hindmarsh (Oxford University Press, 2005) In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, thousands of ordinary women and men experienced evangelical conversion and turned to a certain form of spiritual autobiography to make sense of their lives. This book traces the rise and progress of conversion narrative as a unique form of spiritual autobiography in early modern England. John Newton and the English Evangelical Tradition: Between the Conversions of Wesley and Wilberforce By Bruce Hindmarsh Dr. Hindmarsh draws upon extensive archival and antiquarian sources to provide a serious, scholarly consideration of the life and religious thought of John Newton (1725-1807). In addition, he uses the theme of Newton as a 'sort of middle man' to explore the religious understanding of a whole generation who knew themselves as 'evangelical' although this was different from those who later adopted the term as a badge of partisan loyalty.  SONG: Come To My Help (Psalm 70:1) By Steve Bell   *WATCH VODCAST ON YOUTUBE: https://youtu.be/ZfLYdoPvxTA   SEE ALSO: In 2021 Steve released a independant vodcast with Dr. Bruce Hindmarsh discussing the life of St. John of The Cross and his poem "Dark Night of the Soul" which is the inspiration for Steve's song of the same name. The vodcast includes a performance video of the song at the end of the conversation. Watch: Steve Bell Video Podcast: Bruce Hindmarsh "Dark Night of the Soul" (St. John of the Cross)

  • AN INVITATION TO AN INDIGENOUS WORLDVIEW  - with guest Reverend Dr. Randy Woodley

    AN INVITATION TO AN INDIGENOUS WORLDVIEW  - with guest Reverend Dr. Randy Woodley
    Mar 2 2023
    AN INVITATION TO AN INDIGENOUS WORLDVIEW  - with guest Reverend Dr. Randy Woodley  Randy outlines a traditional North American Indigenous worldview (Harmony Way) of caretaking, co-operation and community as opposed to the Western worldview of conquest, exploitation, and individualism. He argues that the former is akin to the ancient Hebrew vision of shalom, and vital for healing and maintaining the Creator’s “community of creation.”   WEBSITES: Randy Woodley: www.randywoodley.com Reverend Dr. Randy Woodley (Keetoowah Cherokee) is a prolific author, and recognized activist, leader and teacher in the fields of Indigenous and intercultural studies, theology, ecology and missiology.  Woodley and his wife, Edith, are co-sustainers of Eloheh Indigenous Center for Earth Justice and Eloheh Farm and Seeds. Eloheh Indigenous Center for Earth Justice: www.eloheh.org Eloheh Indigenous Center for Earth Justice focuses on developing, implementing and teaching sustainable and regenerative earth practices. “Eloheh” (pronounced Ay-luh-hay) is a Cherokee Indian word meaning harmony, wholeness, abundance and peace.    Eloheh Farm and Seeds: www.elohehseeds.com “We now have our own seed company, and we are trying to preserve open-pollinated organic seeds, many native species, and heirloom seeds... and that’s all very important to us... I would say every bit as important as our theological work because I don’t see a difference between them.”  - Randy Woodley BOOKS: Shalom and the Community of Creation: An Indigenous Vision By Randy S. Woodley (2012 Eerdmans) Randy parallels a traditional Native American social harmony ethic (which he calls The Harmony Way) with the ancient Hebrew vision of Shalom. Indigenous Theology and the Western Worldview: A Decolonized Approach to Christian Doctrine By Randy Woodley (2022 Baker Academic) Randy critiques the worldview that undergirds the North American church by dismantling assumptions regarding early North American histories and civilizations, offering a comparative analysis of worldviews, and demonstrating a decolonized approach to Christian theology. Mission and the Cultural Other: A Closer Look By Randy S. Woodley (2022, Cascade Books) Randy offers a critique of the modern colonial missions project from the perspective of its casualties. Becoming Rooted: One Hundred Days of Reconnecting with Sacred Earth By Randy Woodley 2022 Broadleaf Books Creation is always teaching us. Our task is to look, and to listen, and to live well. Through meditations and ideas for reflection and action, Randy guides the reader on a one-hundred-day journey to reconnect with creation and Creator.  ONLINE LECTURES: Indigenous Spirit: Weaving Justice and Peace in a Wounded Land 2022 Rutlen Lecture at Luther Seminary with Dr. Randy Woodley The Myth of History and Progressive Civilization  2019 Hayward Lectures at Acadia Divinity College with Dr. Randy Woodley   SONG: Wouldn’t You Love to Know?   Music and Lyrics by Steve Bell | Signpost Music (performance video)
