The king went to Gibeon to sacrifice there, for that was the principal high place; Solomon used to offer a thousand burnt offerings on that altar. At Gibe- on the Lord appeared to Solomon in a dream by night; and God said, “Ask what I should give you.” And Solomon said, “You have shown great and steadfast love to your servant my father David, because he walked before you in faithfulness, in righteousness, and in uprightness of heart toward you; and you have kept for him this great and steadfast love, and have given him a son to sit on his throne today. And now, O Lord my God, you have made your servant king in place of my father David, although I am only a little child; I do not know how to go out or come in. And your servant is in the midst of the people whom you have chosen, a great peo- ple, so numerous they cannot be numbered or counted. Give your servant therefore an un- derstanding mind to govern your people, able to discern between good and evil; for who can govern this your great people?” Lectionary Readings for August 19, 2018 (continued) 1 Kings 3: 3-12 (continued) It pleased the Lord that Solomon had asked this. God said to him, “Because you have asked this, and have not asked for yourself long life or riches, or for the life of your ene- mies, but have asked for yourself understanding to discern what is right, I now do ac- cording to your word. Indeed I give you a wise and discerning mind; no one like you has been before you and no one like you shall arise after you. 1 Kings 3: 16-28 Later, two women who were prostitutes came to the king and stood before him. The one woman said, “Please, my lord, this woman and I live in the same house; and I gave birth while she was in the house. Then on the third day after I gave birth, this woman also gave birth. We were together; there was no one else with us in the house, only the two of us were in the house. Then this woman’s son died in the night, because she lay on him. She got up in the middle of the night and took my son from beside me while your servant slept. She laid him at her breast, and laid her dead son at my breast. When I rose in the morning to nurse my son, I saw that he was dead; but when I looked at him closely in the morning, clearly it was not the son I had borne.” But the other woman said, “No, the living son is mine, and the dead son is yours.” The first said, “No, the dead son is yours, and the living son is mine.” So they argued before the king. Then the king said, “The one says, ‘This is my son that is alive, and your son is dead’; while the other says, ‘Not so! Your son is dead, and my son is the living one.’” So the king said, “Bring me a sword,” and they brought a sword before the king. The king said, “Divide the living boy in two; then give half to the one, and half to the other.” But the woman whose son was alive said to the king—because compassion for her son burned within her—“Please, my lord, give her the living boy; certainly do not kill him!” The other said, “It shall be neither mine nor yours; divide it.” Then the king responded: “Give the first woman the living boy; do not kill him. She is his mother.” All Israel heard of the judg- ment that the king had rendered; and they stood in awe of the king, because they per- ceived that the wisdom of God was in him, to execute justice.

The tear off form on this bulletin or a pew card, filled out and placed in the offering plate or handed to an usher or the pastor, will help us to know you better as we serve God together. On this day and all days we keep Marondera Church, our Ukama partner in Zimbabwe in our prayers.

  • Reflection and Emergence: Celebrating 20 Years of the Academy for the Love of Learning and Leonard Bernstein’S 100Th
    Reflection and Emergence: Celebrating 20 years of the Academy for the Love of Learning and Leonard Bernstein’s 100th 201 AUGUST 25 8 1 Copyright © 2018 Academy for the Love of Learning, Inc. © Kate Russell About the Academy 2018 marks both The Academy for the Love of Learning’s 20th anniversary and the centennial of the birth of the 20th century musical giant Leonard Bernstein. The Academy shares a deep history with Leonard Bernstein, and ultimately was birthed from an intense collaboration between Bernstein and Academy founder and President Aaron Stern during the fnal decade of Bernstein’s life. Stern, then Dean of the American Conservatory of Music in Chicago, had a profound discovery about learning while observing how music students learned music. From that discovery, Stern recognized that a restoration of the human capacity to learn was essential not only to the revitalization of music, but all of education and more generally, Western culture itself. From this, Stern began to develop a body of work, pedagogy and learning methodologies that are now at the center of the Academy for the Love of Learning. Stern’s approach to learning found its counterpart in Bernstein’s vision for a better world and a lifelong commitment to sharing that vision through music. Stern’s clear conviction that by “taking the lid of learning, we can learn ourselves to a better world, individually and collectively” touched and inspired Bernstein deeply toward the end of his life. Bernstein invested in Stern enormously during that last decade of his life. Following Bernstein’s death in 1990, Stern developed further and implemented peripatetically the methodologies he frst began to explore while at the Conservatory.

Allegro giocoso Octavio Más-Arocas, conductor Program Notes Beethoven: Overture to Egmont Commissioned by the Vienna Burgtheater, Beethoven completed a set of incidental music consisting of an overture followed by a sequence of nine pieces for Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s drama Egmont. The story is set in the Netherlands in 1567, where the Spanish autocratic rule brings agony to the Flemish. With the yearning of freedom, Count Egmont—a symbol of strength and courage—stands up for his town and leads the citizens to resist the invasion of the Spanish army. In the end, he dies a martyr’s death, intensifying the people’s fire to fight for their independence. It is said that Beethoven was forced to study music early in his childhood by his father. Though he became independent in adulthood, his childhood experience made the concept of freedom for the individual important in his mind.
