Welcome! You have accidentally reached the blog of a heteroclite follower of Jesus: dave wainscott. I'm "pushing toward the unobvious" as I post thinkings/linkings re: Scripture, church and culture. Hot topics include: temple tantrums, time travel, sexuality/spirituality, U2kklesia, role of the pastor, God-haunted music/art..and subversive videos like these.
Look, if this whole deal with God is at all real, it has to do better than droneon in hypothetical and scholastic debates. It has to apply to premarital nudity,dreams of personal glory, colossal lapses in judgment, family dysfunctions,battles with addiction, and frustration with fools. It must have something tosay about tenacity, idolatry, heroes, love, sunsets, demons, prayer, miracles,worms, rivers and hard-won orgasm. Tell me about that stuff. Admit that you'vesomehow come to believe that the sin of the world can hold a candle to thewretchedness of your own heart. Take on questions that are bigger than youranswers. Fight to let pain serve its purpose. Let grace shine through if it's soreal and so great and so worth living for. Show me a Jesus who gives a shitabout the world I inhabit, and I'll keep reading. -back cover, "Gall"

Are these not the full recordings? Shift part 1 is only 4:20 from iTunes and the Gall interview quits before it gets going.
Hey Jaded. Great to hear from you.I just tried them and they work fine for me.Hmmm...will see what my tech dude says..
They work for you through iTunes? That's the trouble I am having. I unsubscribed and resubscribed and part 1 downloaded whole. I believe. The Gall interview? 3 minutes worth.
jaded...sorry i missed this comment...Works on the embedded player for me
