  • A Psalm of Fear
    A Psalm of Fear Psalm 31:1 To the choirmaster. A Psalm of David. For the end, a Psalm of David, an utterance of extreme fear. (LXX) In you, O LORD, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame; in your righteousness deliver me! 2 Incline your ear to me; rescue me speedily! Be a rock of refuge for me, a strong fortress to save me! 3 For you are my rock and my fortress; and for your name's sake you lead me and guide me; 4 you take me out of the net they have hidden for me, for you are my refuge. 5 Into your hand I commit my spirit; you have redeemed me, O LORD, faithful God. 6 I hate those who pay regard to worthless idols, but I trust in the LORD. 7 I will rejoice and be glad in your steadfast love, because you have seen my affliction; you have known the distress of my soul, 8 and you have not delivered me into the hand of the enemy; you have set my feet in a broad place. 9 Be gracious to me, O LORD, for I am in distress; my eye is wasted from grief; my soul and my body also. 10 For my life is spent with sorrow, and my years with sighing; my strength fails because of my iniquity, and my bones waste away. 11 Because of all my adversaries I have become a reproach, especially to my neighbors, and an object of dread to my acquaintances; those who see me in the street flee from me.

  • John Wesley's Manuscript Prayer Manual
    John Wesley’s Manuscript Prayer Manual1 (c. 1730–1734) Editorial Introduction During his years as a student and active fellow at Oxford University, John Wesley filled a number of manuscript notebooks with material. Some were devoted to extracts from letters he had received, inventories of his personal library and expenses, and (after 1725) a diary. Others contained extended extracts from books he did not own, or collected short extracts from various sources on a topic (like his MS Poetry Miscellany). The survival of many of these notebooks is one of the rich resources for Wesley Studies. The largest portion that survive are part of the Colman Collection, now held in the Methodist Archives at The John Rylands Library in Manchester, England. Among these is a volume of prayers and psalms, mainly excerpted from published collections.2 A transcription of the contents of this notebook is provided below, identifying most of Wesley’s sources. (Those portions for which no source has been located are shown in blue font; they may be Wesley’s own creation, or from a yet unidentified source.) Before turning to the transcription it will be helpful to consider the context and purpose of the notebook. In the spiritual retrospective that he wove into his published Journal account of the transition he experienced on May 24, 1738, John Wesley emphasized that his earliest years at Epworth were in a home that adhered staunchly to the practice in the Church of England of morning and evening prayers, typically at the parish church. While he spoke of being ‘more

    Hey guys. And welcome back to another episode of the ride. This is Nicole. And this is Jillian. And today we got to sit down and talk to Elaine Bogan, who is a director over at Dreamworks. And she is coming out with her first feature film called Spirit Untamed, which, um, you know, if you grew up in the early two thousands or you were raising kids, then, uh, you've probably seen the original spirit stallion of the Cimarron. I know that it was a fan favorite of mine when I was a kid. I remember going to the movie theaters and seeing it. And, um, but now they're coming out with a new movie and it is headed to theaters this week. So by the time this podcast comes out, it'll actually have been in theaters over the weekend. It came out June 4th. Um, but I was so excited that they came out with a new film. And, uh, you know, now my friend's kids who they're raising are, are getting to, you know, experience the same thing that I kind of did when I was a kid. And I got to go to the theater. And see, um, you know, spirit in, in the big screen. And so, uh, Jillian and I actually got to watch the film a little earlier. Um, and so Jillian, what did you think of the film loves it? I, I thought that the overall storyline of showing a girl and the bond with her horse and how impactful that can be was, was very well done.

  • Cultural Production in Transnational Culture: an Analysis of Cultural Creators in the Korean Wave
    International Journal of Communication 15(2021), 1810–1835 1932–8036/20210005 Cultural Production in Transnational Culture: An Analysis of Cultural Creators in the Korean Wave DAL YONG JIN1 Simon Fraser University, Canada By employing cultural production approaches in conjunction with the global cultural economy, this article attempts to determine the primary characteristics of the rapid growth of local cultural industries and the global penetration of Korean cultural content. It documents major creators and their products that are received in many countries to identify who they are and what the major cultural products are. It also investigates power relations between cultural creators and the surrounding sociocultural and political milieu, discussing how cultural creators develop local popular culture toward the global cultural markets. I found that cultural creators emphasize the importance of cultural identity to appeal to global audiences as well as local audiences instead of emphasizing solely hybridization. Keywords: cultural production, Hallyu, cultural creators, transnational culture Since the early 2010s, the Korean Wave (Hallyu in Korean) has become globally popular, and media scholars (Han, 2017; T. J. Yoon & Kang, 2017) have paid attention to the recent growth of Hallyu in many parts of the world. Although the influence of Western culture has continued in the Korean cultural market as well as elsewhere, local cultural industries have expanded the exportation of their popular culture to several regions in both the Global South and the Global North. Social media have especially played a major role in disseminating Korean culture (Huang, 2017; Jin & Yoon, 2016), and Korean popular culture is arguably reaching almost every corner of the world.
