Kinder Gentler New Year's Resolutions ISSUE NO. 37 January Kinder Gentler New Year’s Resolutions Contributed By: Laurie Searle; story from www.healthjourneys.com People have been making New Year’s resolutions since the time of Julius Caesar, when January got its name from Janus, the two headed god. One head looked backward at the old year, and the other looked forward into the new one, making Janus the patron of bridges, doorways, beginnings and endings. The tradition of making New Year’s resolutions has survived the test of time, because of its simple promise to make things better and the opportunity each January to start anew, erase the past slate and begin with a fresh, blank one. New Year’s resolutions abound, but the whole idea of making New Year’s resolutions is a personal commitment to oneself, and the best resolutions are made in the heart of each individual. Some people like to make lists of very In this month’s issue, we look backward and forward at specific resolutions, or write lengthy journal entries on each kinder gentler resolutions set by those in Chatt Hills: one, while others might simply make mental notes to do • Chatt Hills Attorney Rick Lindsey returned to community something, often not even calling them resolutions. theater after a 20-year hiatus. • Chatt Hills Parks Commission Chair Diana Wilson Some things we do know, from our own and others’ identified a resource to build a free boat ramp. experiences, is that the kinder and gentler we are with • Serenbe’s Montessori School evolved and is now ourselves, the more likely we are to benefit from making including Acton Academy. the resolutions.

By: Laurie Searle How did you gain experience for community theater? I studied music for almost 20 years and have had several great instrumental and voice teachers over the years. My main instruments were trombone and bassoon, and I also played the piano and sang. I was going to major in music when I graduated from high school and had been accepted to both University of Georgia and Columbus University but changed my mind shortly after graduating. My undergraduate degree is in Business with an emphasis in Advertising and then, of course, went to law school. What a change of direction! If you’ve ever been to a Chattahoochee Hills city council meeting, chances are you’ve seen Rick Lindsey in his customary seat at the staff’s table. In his role as the city’s attorney, a position he’s held for more than 10 years, Rick is like an “A student” who completes all of his work ahead of schedule and sits at-the-ready to answer any questions. Among his many responsibilities, Rick drafts local legislation based on input from city staff and council, reviews contracts and operational documents ensuring compliance with laws, and represents the city in legal matters. He does all of this in addition to his full-time law practice in Peachtree City. Would you describe a typical audition? When we recently learned that Rick was acting in the For “Annie”, I had to sing a song of my choice, read several musical “Annie” in the Southside Theatre Guild (STG) times on stage and learn some simple dance steps to then in Fairburn, we asked him to share his experience with demonstrate to the choreographer and director. community theater.

  • Various Artists, Mercyland: Hymns for the Rest of Us Written by Andrew Leahey June 28Th, 2012
    Various Artists, Mercyland: Hymns For The Rest Of Us Written by Andrew Leahey June 28th, 2012 Mercyland: Hymns For The Rest Of Us Various Artists (Mercyland Records) Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars Who says Christian music can’t appeal to non-believers, too? On this 12-song compilation, producer Phil Madeira rounds up a diverse group of God-fearing folksingers and roots rockers, assigning everyone with a common task: record a song grounded in faith and old-school Americana principles. The result is a collection of dusty, left-field hymns that don’t evoke the chapel as much as the countryside, with acoustic guitars and banjos replacing the church organs most of us associate with Sunday mornings. You don’t have to listen hard to hear the spirituality in these tunes – there are enough references to God, devotion, and prayer to fill a preacher’s weekly sermon – but it’s an old-timey, nostalgic sort of spirituality, the kind more likely to be found on the O Brother, Where Art Thou? soundtrack or Patty Griffin’s Downtown Church than modern-day Christian radio. Credit for the album’s breezy combination of sacred and secular traditions largely goes to Madeira, who pulled off the same trick with 2002’s Making God Smile: An Artists’ Tribute To The Songs of Beach Boy Brian Wilson. Sixpence None the Richer and dc Talk’s Kevin Max were the most famous names on that album, though, while Mercyland: Hymns for the Rest of Us brims with more rootsy star power than an episode of Austin City Limits.

  • GAC Album Review: Mercyland: Hymns for the Rest of Us
    GAC Album Review: Mercyland: Hymns for the Rest of Us By Daryl Addison I want all God’s children to live in harmony, Phil Madeira sings in earnest on the bluesy title track of his non­denominational gospel project, Mercyland: Hymns for the Rest of Us. Due in stores Tuesday, April 24, Mercylandbrings together leading Americana and folk artists with a message of unity and the idea that God is love – no matter to which church you belong. Madeira, who is part of Emmylou Harris’ band The Red Dirt Boys, conceived and produced the record that includes selections from diverse artists like The Civil Wars, Buddy Miller and Shawn Mullins. Madeira co­wrote the majority of the project’s 10 original songs with the album’s guests and sits in with them as part of the band on most tracks. These collaborations, which also feature many of the lineup guesting on each other’s songs, is what makes Mercylandso unique and creative in delivering its message of unity. From the opening acoustic notes of The Civil Wars’ “From the Valley,” which features Emmylou Harris on backing vocals, it’s evident that Mercyland favors a raw, live sound over control room tricks. The starkly produced, Appalachian­influenced song hinges on the electric harmonies of TCW’s Joy Williams andJohn Paul White. On the swamp blues “Give God the Blues,” Shawn Mullins sings universally, God ain’t no Republican / He ain’t no Democrat / He ain’t even Independent / God’s above all that, over Madeira’s steel fiber slide guitar and an assist from Buddy Miller and The Carolina Chocolate Drops on backing vocals.

  • Mercyland: Hymns for the Rest of Us, Various Artists
    April 18, 2012 Review: Mercyland: Hymns For The Rest Of Us, Various Artists by Kim Ruehl, for FolkAlley.com The relationship between music and spirituality has a history about as long as human beings have been capable of giving voice to their beliefs. In fact, there's reason to believe music has had a place in spiritual practice since before any of the contemporary religions even took root. Conversely, modern music would likely have little place without the various tenets of faith. But, whether it's faith in god or love or humankind, music is evidence of the persistence of the human spirit. Maybe that's why so many predominantly secular artists occasionally perform and record spiritual songs at some point in their career. When an artist sings a song about faith in something larger than themselves, it doesn't necessarily mean they're looking to make a testimony about their religious beliefs. It's simply a moment for them to tap into whatever holds the key to their creativity. And so it is that a handful of today's finest folk and roots music artists - The Civil Wars, Shawn Mullins, the Carolina Chocolate Drops, Buddy Miller, and Emmylou Harris among them - have gathered to record an album titled Mercyland - Hymns for the Rest of Us. This is not a collection of tent-raising revivalist spirituals, though there are certainly plenty of those in the folk tradition. You're unlikely to find on this disc a clear and determined statement about Jesus or God or any specific Biblical lessons. (Except for North Mississippi All-Stars' "If I Was Jesus," which takes the phrase "What would Jesus do?" in an interesting direction.) Nor, for that matter, will you find lessons from the Torah, the Qu'ran, the Tao Te Ching, etc.
