Kate Norlander: Director of Marketing and Community Relations Phillip Romine: Director of Admissions Ameen Taahir: Graphic Design Artist Jann Cather Weaver: Editor in Chief PREFACE DR. PAMELA AYO YETUNDE At United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities, we value exploring the multiple intersections of theology, culture, embodiment, and art. Hence, we began the 2017-2018 academic year with a special opportunity for the community of students, faculty, staff, and alums to engage the theology of Prince as expressed in his life and music. “The idea was extraordinary for a multitude of reasons. United is an ecumenical and progressive seminary where students are encouraged to question [doctrine] and engage in candid conversations about spirituality, social justice, chaplaincy, life and death—conversations about gender identity and human sexuality with support for the full inclusion of our LGBTQI+ siblings. All these conversations have crossover points, intersections, with what we know about Prince, his music and his life.”1 Prince was an intergenerational and international musical, fashion, and cinematic artist best known for his funky dance rhythms and explicit sexuality— and a Minnesotan! Even though he sold more than 100 million records and won seven Grammy awards, little is known about the impact religion and spirituality had on his music and artistic expression. http://www.fccminneapolis.org/home/voices/?utm_campaign=Events&utm_source=hs_ Yet, who has not had a ‘holy’ moment listening to one of Prince’s songs or email&utm_medium=email&utm_content=57843864&_hsenc=p2ANqtz-_RYXtZRJgr- attending one of his concerts?

Dedicated to theological education, this school commits to infuse the arts in this critical endeavor. Students come to understand the arts as conduits for the holy, to the Divine. Hence, United Theological Seminary issued a United-wide and an international call for submissions to inquire into the “Theology of Prince.” We asked for visual artwork, personal essays, videos, poetry, music, and academic papers to respond Prince unveiled a sacred space in which all could see the hallowed in themselves to the theological, spiritual, and religious motifs in Prince’s work, with different and one another. juries from the United Theology of Prince Committee selecting a winner in each medium.

Dr. Pamela Ayo Yetunde The final intent was for the school to release a curated, online journal in theology Theology of Prince Committee Chair and culture: Theology of Prince. This journal consists of student, alum, faculty, and December 3, 2018 international guest submissions from a variety of religious, spiritual, and theolog- ical landscapes. Our intention is to allow each Voice to be heard in its distinctive quality, rather than edit all pieces to echo a hollow tune of conformance in theol- ogy and tenor: a fusion of melodies comprise this singular journal. Furthermore, with this journal, United Seminary lives into the ethic of embracing sexuality as intrinsic to spirituality, as inherited from our famed and beloved professor, Dr. James B. Nelson, Professor Emeritus of Christian Ethics (1963-1995), an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ. In the early 1970s, Dr. Nelson, along with his wife, Wilys Claire, developed a program at United that “became a national model for seminary sexuality education.”2 Dr. Nelson’s teaching and publications (Embodiment: An Approach to Sexuality and Christian Theology (1978), Between Two Gardens: Reflections on Sexuality and Reli- gious Experience (1983), and others) affirm sexuality as central to one’s spirituality and relationship with God. Within this journal, authors and artists interrogate how Prince expressed his sexuality in relation to his theologies through his lyrics, subsequent albums, and live performances: Did Prince exorcize alleged conflicts between sex, sexuality, gender identity, and his faith traditions? Did devotees of Prince find a needed liberation for their sexuality from an oppressive theological interpretation of sexuality? Did Prince allow us to acknowledge and transverse our gender fluidity? A friend and colleague sojourned to the outer fence of Paisley Park soon after the death of Prince. Upon seeing signs and notes left by grieving patrons, she felt moved by the number of people who attributed to him a rare affirmation: Prince testified they were created ‘holy’ and not something ‘different’.3 As a Rock Icon, Notes PAMELA AYO YETUNDE 1“Theology of Prince Gallery,” United Theological Seminary of the Twin Cities | Theology of Prince, accessed December 3, 2018, https://bit.ly/2BOq8bd. 2“Dr. James B.

We are perfect just as we are. Return to Book Page. This in-sight is what you seek, yet you cannot have it while you are so deeply concerned with your outer reality. But matter will form out of pure energy. What is created by you is the degree to which these events touch your life. But you do not know Who You Are, and you think you are a great deal less. Do not accept the unacceptable. To have done so would have been to violate a sacred Law of the Universe:. Because of this book, I've opened my heart and my mind. For it is the nature of people to love, then destroy, then love again that which they value most. And still, both existed simultaneously. The topics in this book were more interesting than book one.

And yet the accusations keep coming. How much scrutiny can the two-time Tour de France winner stand? by Michael Hall In May of last year, Lance Armstrong was riding in the Pyrenees, preparing for the upcoming Tour de France. He had just completed the seven-and-a-half-mile ride up Hautacam, a treacherous mountain that rises 4,978 feet above the French countryside. It was 36 degrees and raining, and his team's director, Johan Bruyneel, was waiting with a jacket and a ride back to the training camp. But Lance wasn't ready to go. "It was one of those moments in my life I'll never forget," he told me. "Just the two of us. I said, 'You know what, I don't think I got it. I don't understand it.1 Johan said, 'What do you mean? Of course you got it. Let's go.' I said, 'No, I'm gonna ride all the way down, and I'm gonna do it again.' He was speechless. And I did it again." Lance got it; he understood Hautacam—in a way that would soon become very clear.

Setting the play off the coast of Florida in the age of exploration, Monteleone brought new energy to this Shakespearean classic through her well chosen cast and crew, composed of UNF and FSCJ students, alumni, and a beautiful group of spirits, many of whom are still in elementary or middle school. A simple set—the wrecked ship with flowing torn sails, and a six-tiered platform—created the perfect stage.

In his later career, Warhol was often vilified by art critics for being little more than a society portraitist and social impresario.
