    Christ Episcopal Church, Valdosta “The Action of God’s Love” (2 Corinthians 4:14-5:1) June 6, 2021 Dave Johnson In the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Apostle Paul’s Second Letter to the Corinthians is far and away his most vulnerable letter. He does not water down the realities of his suffering as an apostle of the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ—as he writes: Five times I have received the forty lashes minus one. Three times I was beaten with rods. Once I received a stoning. Three times I was shipwrecked; for a night and a day I was adrift at sea; on frequent journeys, in danger from rivers, danger from bandits, danger from my own people, danger from Gentiles, danger in the city, danger in the wilderness, danger at sea, danger from false brothers and sisters; in toil and hardship, through many a sleepless night, hungry and thirsty, often without food, cold and naked. And besides other things, I am under daily pressure because of my anxiety for all the churches. Who is weal, and I am not weak? (2 Corinthians 11:24-29). Not only did Paul suffer all these things in his apostolic ministry, he also suffered in his personal life, especially with what he dubbed his “thorn in the flesh”: “Therefore, to keep me from being too elated, a thorn was given me in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me, to keep me from being too elated.” Paul does not reveal what this specific “thorn in the flesh” was, though there are many theories about it, but he does reveal what he did about it: “Three times I appealed to the Lord about this, that it would leave me, but he said to me, ‘My grace is sufficient for you, for power is made perfect in weakness’” (2 Corinthians 12:7-9).

Auch musikalisch war das eine tolle Zeit, weil da eine Menge Energie in der Luft lag. Das war eine Zeit der Experimente. Und das Ganze folgte einer großen Ära des Rock'n'Roll. Die Quellen, aus denen wir Musiker damals schöpfen konnten, waren also sehr reichhaltig. In den folgenden Jahrzehnten konnten wir nie mehr auf so ergiebige Quellen zurückgreifen. Die Musik der 70er Jahre zum Beispiel war viel flacher und nicht annähernd so anregend wie die aus den 50er Jahren.

CREATIVE INDUSTRIES: BEHIND THE SCENES INEQUALITIES by SIERRA NICELY Under the Direction of Wendy Simonds, PhD ABSTRACT Film has been a major influence since its creation in the early 20th century. Women have always been involved in the creation of film as a cultural product. However, they have rarely been given positions of power in major film productions. Using qualitative approaches, I examine the different ways in which men and women directors approach creating film. I examine 20 films, half were directed by men and half by women. I selected the twenty films out of two movie genres: Action and Romantic Comedy. These genres were chosen because of their very gendered marketing. My focus was on the different ways in which gender was shown on screen and the differences in approach by men and women directors. The research showed differences in approach of gender but also different approaches in race and sexuality. Future studies should include more analysis on differences by race and sexuality.

  • SALVADOR DA BAHIA, BRAZIL Onboard: 1800 Sunday, November 6
    Arrive: 0800 Tuesday, November 1 SALVADOR DA BAHIA, BRAZIL Onboard: 1800 Sunday, November 6 Brief Overview: Salvador Da Bahia simply called ‘Bahia’ by locals, is an energetic and beautiful city. The bright and gold-laden architecture of this city demonstrates the grandeur of what was once the capital of Portugal’s New World colony. The Afro-Brazilian culture of the city is evident in much of the its traditions, specifically in its religious movements, music, dance, food, and martial arts, which have preserved the heritage of the West African peoples that were enslaved and brought to Brazil. Experience Bahian culture through a performance of the Bahia Folklore Dance Company or take part in a drumming workshop. Participate in the immense restoration projects sweeping the city, or meet with locals who took the revitalization of these communities under their wing. Don’t miss out in viewing Salvador’s vibrant coast. Whether visiting the sea turtle project at Praia do Forte or taking a cruise to Itaparica Island, the magnificent shoreline is something to be seen. Out of town: Rio de Janeiro is not called the Magnificent City for nothing. The juxtaposition of dense city and tropical rainforest leaves the imagination with endless inspirations. You can find yourself in the middle of a bustling city street one minute and the next hiking up to an astounding overlook through the Tijuca Atlantic Forest. If you’re into natural wonders, catch a flight to Iguaçu National Park and marvel at its 240 waterfalls. Visit the Amazon: Travel to Manaus, and embark on a riverboat expedition along the Amazon River.

  • The Rhythm of the Saints By: Stewart Clegg Introduction Reflexivity Isn't What It Used to Be. Reflexivity, No Longer the Prese
    The Rhythm of the Saints by: Stewart Clegg Introduction Reflexivity isn't what it used to be. Reflexivity, no longer the preserve of a largely formalist, formulaic and limited theoretical conversation, is, according to Lash and Urry (1994) a property of a system of flows. Created and recreated in these flows are spaces and signs, significations and semiotics, symbols and mobile subjects and objects moving through circuits of power framed by meaning, space and time. The critical variable in meaning is reflexivity: some subjects are able to be more acutely reflexive than others because of specific configurations of space and time which flow through them. Flows channel through institutional spaces characterized by different 'governance structures'. Institutional spaces are both regionally and organizationally elaborated through space and time by different constitutions of meaning-governance structures. Regionally, some are thickly fabricated by multifarious flows channelling through contiguous nodes, such as the capital cities of the postmodern world. Others are spaces from which flows retreat or remain absent in a vicious circle that empties out life chances thus contained: the ghettoes of the UK and the USA, the wastelands of Eastern Europe. Within the saturated spaces of rich flows governance is less by either market or hierarchies and more by either or both of these being embedded in networks. Many flows are risky as organization power circuits stretch and spill beyond the capacities for reflexive monitoring and management that they are inscribed within. At risk are embodied selves seeking to manage whatever circumstances they are in, circumstances of escalating existential uncertainty. Reflexivity, in thick circuits, defines these states increasingly in aesthetic terms, in both work, where design and symbolic manipulation overtake traditional labour processes, and in play, where subjects check in and out of different avenues for self expression.
