  • Worship Nuts and Bolts III.Pub
    NUTS AND BOLTS III: ALL THINGS MUSICALLY RELATED 1. I NTRODUCTION Worship is a living tradition, a dynamic process that moves between received heritage and the realities and challenges of the present world. It is a conversation that began long before we were born and will continue long after we are gone. Music has always been an integral expression of the proclamation of the Word, of prayer and of the incarnational mystery in worship. The Psalmist proclaims, “I will bless the Lord at all times; his praise shall be continually in my mouth” (Ps. 34: 1 RSV). As musicians working in the church, our calling is to be creative facilitators and conduits that articulate and offer praise to God; to be, in the words of the poet George Herbert, “secretaries of God’s praise.” Augustine writes in his Confessions, “ ... even now as I am moved not by the song but by the things which are sung, when sung with fluent voice and music that is most appropriate, I acknowledge again the great benefit of this practice. Thus I vacillate between the peril of pleasure and the value of the experience, and I am led more, while advocating no irrevocable position, to endorse the custom of singing in church so that by the pleasure of hearing, the weaker soul might be elevated to an attitude of devotion.” Thirteen centuries later, John Wesley wrote these instructions for Methodists, “Above all sing spiritually. Have an eye to God in every word you sing. Aim at pleasing God more than yourself, or any other creature.

  • The Wisconsin Idea: the Vision That Made Wisconsin Famous
    1 “Trying to plan for the future without a sense of the past is like trying to plant cut flowers” --Daniel Boorstin, historian and Librarian of Congress The Wisconsin Idea: The Vision that Made Wisconsin Famous Introduction To the practitioners who comprise UW-Madison’s Community Partnerships and Outreach (CPO) Staff Network, the Wisconsin Idea is at the heart of their day-to-day work with communities in Wisconsin and beyond. But the original meaning of the Wisconsin Idea has faded over time, replaced by a generic public service mandate. (1) “The Boundaries of the University are the Boundaries of the State” The “Year of the Wisconsin Idea” offers us an opportunity to reflect on how the Wisconsin Idea guides our practice. We chose to explore the history of the emergence of the Wisconsin Idea in an attempt to renew and clarify our vision for why and how we engage with the public to address pressing issues. It turns out that the history of the University’s engagement with the State offers much more relevant guidance than we would have imagined. The values that drove the founders of the WI Idea—truth, self- governance, egalitarianism, integrity, trust and social capital—are the same values that represent effective, democratic partnerships today. It’s evident in our practice, and now it’s evident in our history as well, thanks to the work of Gwen Drury, Ph.D. student in Educational Policy and Leadership Analysis at UW-Madison. The rich history she details here brings us closer to our best practices—equitable, reciprocal engagement in which knowledge is co-created by the University and communities working together on issues that matter to all of us.
