ABOUT A BLACKWELL
God is Great, in fact, He’s Awesome.
Thanks for stopping by. This site is dedicated to sharing the gospel that Jesus is Lord through song. I heard someone say that you will forget a sermon not long after you’ve heard it, but a catchy song you'll remember for a lifetime. So this is my way of sharing the gospel in a prayerfully and hopefully unforgettable way.

See Big Cross in the Woods, “Check”
Indian River, Michigan is home to “The Cross in the Woods,” a local landmark since 1954. The cross in the woods is the the largest crucifix in the world, standing at 55 feet tall. The 28 foot tall figure of Jesus hanging on the cross, weighs seven tons and was one of the largest castings to ever be shipped across the Atlantic Ocean.
Like most other attractions, cross in the woods of course has a gift shop. One interesting item for sale, are these “Mrs. ButterWorth’s” looking bottles of the “Virgin Mary.” I’m not Catholic, so not sure what this is used for?
Also at this same location is a doll museum of religious figures, that is kinda creepy! The best part of the museum collection are the priest dolls made from 70’s toy action figures, Ken (Barbie), “The Fonz” and “Mork.” Yes, “Father Fonzie” and “Father Mork.” Awesome!

You will never be happy if you continue to search for what happiness consists of. You will never live if you are looking for the meaning of life. Albert Camus
Have you noticed a preoccupation with discovering the meaning of life? Meaning making is a great human endeavour. We witness people go on soul journeys, sea changes or pilgrimages to discover themselves and their place in the world, to seek answers and meaning. We hunger to be part of something. There exists a gnawing unrelenting need when we lack community, a sense of belonging and purpose. The sense that life is meaningless could be the most desolate of thoughts. Desolate is the one who finds themselves alone, unattached, adrift in life.
This phenomenon, I imagine, has always existed though there seems to me to be an intensification in recent times, a swell of seekers. My limited view and observations lead me to believe this is a side effect borne mainly by those in western cultures. Could it be due to a lack of traditions, of ritual, of religion, of an intimacy and belief in story and myth? Professor of sociology, John Carroll suggests there is an emerging poverty in western cultures due to a move away from myth.
Myths have been central to all cultures. I recently listened to Saga Land, a radio podcast by Richard Fidler, about the Icelandic sagas. These stories have endured for centuries and link the people to their ancestors and heritage. My childhood was full of the stories of the Australian Dreamtime. The stories, songs and dance of the traditional owners of the country I call home still captivate and educate me. I was educated in catholic schools and am familiar with many Christian myths.
Why are myths important? Why might a lack of myth in our life affect us so very much?
Myths are enduring, they are rich with metaphorical weight. Myths give us a sense of ourselves in relation to others. Hugh Mackay, author and social researcher, deduces that myth and story help us identify where we place our faith and that faith unites us and equips us to live with doubt and uncertainty. Through his research he has found that humans yearn something beyond the material, something other than themselves to use as a reference point to draw strength from, something that inspires them.
Religion and attending church used to fill that yearning, satisfy the hunger, give us something to inspire us and provide a sense of community. The role of religion has been to provide potent narratives to guide us along our journey to discover meaning. Interestingly only 8% of Australians are regular church goers. Why have so many turned away from the church? Perhaps it’s because the myths and narratives are served up as doctrine and often expected to be swallowed whole. For me, my move away from the church was the incongruence between doctrine and the behaviours of those most strongly advocating it. Mackay has found that dogma definitely divides us. He advocates faith beyond dogma.
I can attest that faith can exist without a literal adherence to dogma. I can also attest to the desire for community. While my faith is strong I do not worship in a church and I do at times crave to be part of a community. For a time I found it in a group of like-minded souls. We learned together, we practiced ritual, we communed and we grew individually and as a group. It was quenching. It was so deeply satisfying I wanted for nothing more. We eventually drifted apart, each to go their own way to continue our individual journeys. I miss that gathering of minds and souls. I miss the kinship.
It’s fascinating this hardwired need in humans to have a story that keeps the darkness at bay and to satisfy our longing to belong. It is, I believe, the impetus for the great human endeavour – to seek meaning and purpose in life.

The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse appear in the New Testament’s last book, the Book of Revelation written by John of Patmos. In God`s right hand is a scroll that is sealed with seven seals. The Lamb of God (Jesus) opens the first four of the seven seals, summoning four terrible beings that ride out on white, red, black, and pale horses.
These four riders bring upon the world the divine apocalypse and are released upon humanity as harbingers of the Last Judgment. During the End of Times, humanity will encounter these horsemen and will know death, disease, famine, and many more trials.
Pestilence — Revelation 6:1-2
The next thing I saw was this. When the lamb had opened one of the seven seals, I heard one of the four living creatures say in a voice like thunder, ‘Come!’ And, as I watched, there was a white horse. Its rider was holding a bow. He was given a crown, and he went off winning victories, and to win more of them.

6 1 After that Jesus went up across the Sea of Galilee to Tiberiados. 2 And a crowd of many followed because they saw the miracles which he performed upon those who were sick. 3 So Jesus went up onto a mountain and rested there with his disciples. 4 And it was near the Passover celebration of the Judeans. 5 So when Jesus raised his eyes and saw the crowd of many coming to him, he says to Philip, “Where will we buy bread to feed them all?” 6 He said this to test him; for he himself knew what he was about to do. 7 Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each one to receive some.” 8 One of the disciples, Andrew the brother of Simon Peter, says to him, 9 “There is a young man here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what is this among so many?” 10 Jesus said, “Get all the men to sit down.” Now there was a large open space where they could eat and when they sat down, the men numbered five thousand. 11 Jesus took the loaves and giving thanks, gave them out to the men sitting around each a portion, and of the fish, as much as they wished. 12 And when they were full, he says to his disciples, “Gather up the remaining fragments lest there be waste.” 13 And when they were all gathered, they had twelve baskets of fragments from the five barley loaves which were left over by the ones who had eaten. 14 The men then observed what a miracle he performed and said, “This is truly a prophet who comes from heaven into the world.” 15 Jesus then knowing that they were about to come and forcefully take and make him king, retreated [or ‘fled’] again onto the mountain alone.
16 And when evening came, his disciples went down to the seashore 17 and embarking in a boat they went across the sea to Kapharnaoum. It was already dark and Jesus had not come to them, 18 when a great wind rose up on the sea. 19 When they had gone about twenty-five or thirty stades [σταδιους, the race course at Olympia, as a measure, was one stade, about an eighth of a Roman mile] they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat; and they were afraid. 20 But Jesus said, “It is I; do not be afraid.” 21 Then they went to receive him in the boat, and then [ευθυς] the boat came upon the land where they were going.
22 The next day the crowd was standing across the sea and they saw that the other boats were there except one, and that Jesus did not go with his disciples in the boat but his disciples went alone; 23 then boats came from Tiberiados near the place where they ate the bread for which the lord gave thanks. 24 When the crowd saw that neither Jesus nor his disciples were there, they embarked in their boats and went to Kapharnaoum seeking Jesus. 21 And finding him across the sea, they said to him, “How (or ‘when’) did you get here?” 26 Jesus answered and said, “Listen carefully, you seek me not because you saw miracles but because you ate the bread and were filled. 27 Do not put all your energy into material sustenance which will eventually be entirely lost [i.e., ‘utterly destroyed,’ ‘demolished’] but [put all your energy] into sustenance which will remain [‘endure,’ ‘continue’] forever, [sustenance] which the son of man will give you; for god the father has approved this one [i.e., the son of man].
28 Then they said to him, “What should we do in order that we might do the great works [‘astounding miracles,’ apply the energy, εργα] of god?” 29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the great miraculous work of god – that you believe in the one he sent.”
30 Then they said to him, “What evidence [‘sign,’ σημειον] will you do so that we might see it and believe in you? What [great miracle] are you going to do? [Dramatic irony – the literary audience knows the answer but the ‘actors’ or characters do not. John is using this device to amplify the meaning of this story – i.e., that it points to the crucifixion and subsequent, resulting resurrection as the ‘great miracle’ or ‘work’ of god that Jesus will do. Now the characters bring up the history of Israel, the great works of god through Moses:] 31 Our fathers ate the manna in the desert and so it is written:
Bread from heaven he gave them to eat.” [Ex 16:15]
32 Jesus said to them, “Listen carefully, Moses did not give you the bread from heaven, rather, my father gives you the true bread from heaven; 33 for the ‘bread of god’ is that which descended from heaven and which gives eternal life to the universe.”
34 Then they said to him, “Master, give us all this bread.” 35 Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of eternal life; the one who comes to me will not hunger and the one who believes in me will never thirst. 36 Now I told you that you have seen me but still you will not believe. [So now I will explain to you the way it is:]
37 Everything the father gives me will come to me, and I will not cast out [or ‘expel’] the one who comes to me 38 because I have not come down from heaven to do my own will but the will of the one who sent me. 39 This is the will of the one who sent me, that everything he has given me should not be lost or taken away from him but [on the contrary] I will raise it [all] in the eschatological [‘last’] day. 40 For this is the will of my father, that everyone who meets the son [θεωρεω, ‘sees him’ with the implication of presence, like a governmental envoy or diplomatic meeting] and believes in him will have eternal life, and I will raise him up in the eschatological day.” [He is referring to apocalyptic themes in the prophets and the popular literature of the time – now known as apocryphal and pseudepigraphic – that he himself is this eschatological son of man seen in the visions of, say, Daniel, Isaiah, Zechariah, Ezekiel. This is very hard for them to believe, probably, as Jesus says, because they never really believed or understood it in the first place.]
[So, of course, they are offended…] 41 Then the Judeans were grumbling about him because he said, “I am the bread which descended from heaven,” 42 and they said, “Is this Jesus not the son of Joseph; don’t we know his father and mother? How is it that he now says, “from heaven I have descended?” 43 Jesus answered back and said to them, “Do not grumble among yourselves. No one is able to come to me but the one whom the father who sent me draws to me; and then I will raise him up in the eschatological day. 45 It is written in the prophets, “And all will be taught by God.” Everyone who heard [the teachings] of the father and learned comes to me. 46 No one has seen the father [i.e., face to face] except the one who was with God [i.e., from the beginning] – this one has seen the father. [He is referring to Moses, who saw God, but not his face.]
47 Listen carefully, the one who believes [what I’m saying] has eternal life. 48 I am the bread of eternal life. 49 Now, our fathers ate the manna in the desert and they died; 50 but the bread I’m talking about descended from heaven so that anyone who eats it should not die. 51 I am the bread of life which descended from heaven; if anyone should eat this bread he will live forever; now the bread which I will give is my body in behalf of the life of the world.”
52 Then the Judeans were quarreling among themselves saying, “How can this one give us his body to eat?”
53 Jesus said to them, “Listen carefully, unless you eat the flesh of the son of man and drink his blood, you will not have eternal life in yourselves. 54 The one who eats my flesh and drinks my blood has eternal life and I will raise him up at the judgement. 55 For my flesh truly is sustenance and my blood truly is the [marriage] sacrament of wine [ποσις means both ‘husband’ or ‘mate’ and ‘drink.’ This is a play on words to suggest the Israelite ceremony which included the notion of Israel as bride and God as groom, a recurring theme in John]. 56 The one who eats my flesh and drinks my blood dwells in me and I in him. 57 And just as the eternal life of the father raises me up and I will live eternally because of the father, so also will the one who eats me live because of me. 58 This is the bread which descended from heaven – not what the forefathers ate and died – rather, the one who eats this bread will live forever.” 59 These things he said while teaching in the synagogue in Kapharnaoum.
60 Then many of his disciples, hearing [him] said, “This word [this guy’s teaching] is harsh [‘tough’ as in ‘sclera’ (σκλνρος) of the eye, which is cartilaginous and gristly – the teaching is ‘hard’]; who is able to listen to it?” 61 And Jesus, knowing within himself [ειδος ‘knowing‘…εν εαυτω ‘in himself‘] that his disciples were grumbling concerning these things says to them, “Does this offend you? Why do you wonder [θεωρεω, can also mean, ‘contemplation,’ ‘reflection’] that the son of man will be lifted up to where he was before? 63 The spirit is the one who gives eternal life, the body is of absolutely no benefit; rather, these little words which I have spoken to you are spirit and are eternal life.
64 But there are some of you who do not believe.” For Jesus knew from the beginning that some would not believe and that some one would betray him. 65 So he said, “This is why I told you that no one is able to come to me unless it has been gifted to him from the father.” 66 Then many of his disciples went elsewhere and no longer went about with him. 67 Jesus then said to the twelve [who were left, presumably], “Don’t you wish to leave?”
68 Simon Peter answered him, “Master, where will we go? You have (little) words of eternal life; 69 we have believed and we know that you are the holy one of god.”
70 Jesus answered them, “Did I not choose the twelve of you? And yet, one of you is ‘diabolos,’ a false accuser.” 71 He was speaking about Judas Simon Iscariot; for this guy was about to betray him, [even though] he was one of the twelve.

About the Overflow
What is life in the overflow? it is the trust in God (universe) that you are being poured into and always taken care of. As he pours into you, you pour into others, and it's a constant stream, it never ends. There is no reason to fear that there is not enough or no room for you. God always shows you that there is more for you, so you can bless others! I have seen it time and time again. This is your invitation!

By Ivo Tangiri
George Weah the former football star, who succeeded the first round of the presidential elections in Liberia attended the Sunday service of Synagogue Church of All Nations(SCOAN) in Nigeria.
Emmanuel TV passed the sermon live and in which the Church leader Pastor T.B Joshua welcomed his guest announcing to the congregation that ‘his brother is around. My brother is here today because he loves his country and wants the choice of God. He is not here ask God to make him president but to know God’s opinion.’
The Pastor, T.B Joshua also said he is not favouring any person or political party but rather to pray for God’s will to manifest in the upcoming elections.
This is not the first time this Church has welcomed August visitors, the Tanzanian President John Magufuli, the late Ghanaian President John Atta Mills, Zimbabwean Prime Minister Morgan Tsvangarai and South African Opposition leader Julius Malema.
George Weah did not come alone for his delegation comprised of the former Liberian warlord, Yormie Johnson who also lost during the first round of the elections.
The presidential run-off elections between Weah and Vice-President Joseph Boakai is supposed to take place by November 7 2017.


Preface: I am not Christian. This is just referring to a similarity I found.
I was going over Christian art depicting the resurrection of Jesus, and noticed that several pieces depict Roman guards asleep/unconscious whilst guarding the tomb of Jesus. This was alluded to in the scripture itself [using KJV for this], with Matthew 28:4 (referring to the guards after a 'holy earthquake'):
And for fear of him the keepers
did shake, and became as dead men.
In Matthew 28:13, this is expanded upon:
Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night,
and stole him away while we slept.
It's possible that this could be referenced in JJBA with the 'sleeping' aspect of Chariot Requiem, and/or the idea of Sleeping Slaves. Knowing what would occur in Part 6/7 in regards to Christianity, I believe it's plausible.
I'd like to know what you think of this interpretation, and if there's anything similar to it throughout the series.

Our Current Projects
We continue our Food Pantry project feeding the needy of our Lawrence community. Each Wednesday volunteers from our church and the local community pick up food from the distribution location and bring it back to the church. At points during the week the food is sorted, rice bagged into equal portions, and all of it organized into boxes for distribution We provide a box of non-perishable food, and some fresh produce when available, to individuals and families in need of assistance.
Our Food Pantry is open on the first and third Sunday of every month beginning at 6:00 am. We are currently serving upwards of 200 individuals and families. If you would like to help with our Food Pantry project please see Fr. Ephraim.
We are very grateful for the generous support we receive through the Merrimack Valley Food Bank and the Russell and Stearns Benevolent Trusts, who help make this ministry possible.

See pictures of the rectory here: Facebook Page. God's blessings on you all!


The Benedictine Abbey of Plankstetten, established in 1129, serves as the region's spiritual, cultural, and economic hub. The monastery's farms were transitioned to organic farming in 1994, following Bioland guidelines. The Staudenhof monastery estate is widely recognized as a model farm for organic-biological agriculture.
The monks and guests are provided with healthy and delicious organic food through the monastery's agriculture, market gardens, bakery, and butchery.
For over 25 years, the guest house, which features a distinct corner tower, has held an important place within the grand monastery complex. It is also used for meetings.
Foundation 12th - 14th century
Founded in 1129, the Benedictine Abbey of Plankstetten was established by the Counts of Hirschberg as an episcopal monastery under the Bishop of Eichstätt. The noble family of the Hirschbergs, who were among the region's wealthiest, were the monastery's principal benefactors. Count Ernst IV of Hirschberg, buried in the monastery church, and his brother Gebhard II, the bishop of Eichstätt at the time of the foundation, were crucial figures in the establishment of the monastery.
In the early days, the monastery church was dedicated to the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and St. John the Evangelist, and there were between 10 and 15 monks living in Plankstetten.
Troubled times 15th - 17th century
However, in the 15th century, Abbot Ulrich V initiated extensive structural changes, and the history of Plankstetten beer began under his reign with the brewery's construction. He also spiritually reformed the monastery. But due to the Reformation and the Landshut War of Succession, economic hardship broke out in Plankstetten and the surrounding area in 1504/05. The monastery was plundered and destroyed in 1525 during the Peasants' War.
In the 17th century, the monks of Plankstetten had to flee from the Thirty Years' War unrest and the Swedes to Austria. The monastery was again plundered and devastated. The situation calmed down enough at the end of the century for the monastery to receive the baroque buildings that still exist today.
Abbot Maurus Xaverius Herbst OSB (1701 - 1757)
Abbot Maurus Xaverius Herbst OSB played a significant role in promoting the devotion to the Sorrowful Mother of God and the flagellated Savior; he continued the renovations to the monastery buildings.
Secularization (1806) and new beginning (1904)
In 1806, the Bavarian state dissolved the monastery (secularization), and some Benedictine monks continued to work in the parish. The first attempt to re-establish the monastery failed in 1856, but in 1904, a monastery of the Benedictine Abbey of Scheyern was established in Plankstetten. Financially, the restoration of Plankstetten was supported by Baron Theodor von Cramer-Klett.
In 1907, an agricultural school opened in Plankstetten, and the rural monastery property, the Staudenhof, was also acquired. Activities in the bakery, brewery, and butchery also began. In 1917, Plankstetten was again elevated to an independent abbey, with Abbot Wolfgang Maria Elba as the first abbot of Neu-Plankstetten.
However, under National Socialist rule, the agricultural school had to be closed in 1934. During World War II, some monks had to go to war, and many fell. A military hospital was also set up in the monastery, causing significant damage.
Recent history (from 1904)
In the following years, the monastery was gradually rebuilt and expanded. In 1994, the monastic community switched to organic farming according to Bioland guidelines. Today, the monastery estate on the Staudenhof is a widely known demonstration farm for organic-biological farming. Agriculture and market gardens, monastery bakery, and monastery butchery provide monks and guests with tasty and healthy food of organic quality.

Br. Samuel Babu, Believers Brethren Assembly, (BBA), Majlis - Bahrain
For the last few days, we have been relentlessly praying for Br. Samuel Babu, who suffered Cardiac Problems and was admitted in Salmaniya Medical Complex, Bahrain. It was well pleasing for our Lord to call HIS child to the Eternal Home, where there is no pain, no sorrow, no tears, no sickness and no death. He went to be with the LORD around 10:30 PM Bahrain Time today (Friday 23rd 2015).
Let us uphold the grieving family members to the Throne of Grace. May the Lord bestow upon them heavenly Grace, Peace and strength and console them with the word of God.

Christianity is a divided religion, composed of hundreds of denominations and schisms. Through the centuries, most of Christianity's branches have assimilated many non-biblical traditions into their teachings and practices, spawning even more variations.
How can we account for the explosion of contradictory practices and confliction factions in the world of Christianity?
Is it possible to reconcile competing denominational groups with the standards and objectives Christ established for His Church? Can we know whether Christianity's bewildering variety of customs and teachings faithfully represent those of Jesus Christ?
There are some major differences between the Christianity of the time of Christ and the apostles and that commonly practiced today. Shouldn't you look into your Bible to see if your beliefs and practices square with what Jesus Christ and the apostles practiced and taught?

Your current situation never has to define your future success. As you learn my story, you will see that perhaps your cookie doesn’t have to crumble – mine didn’t!
Nicole could have easily become just another statistic in the teenage mom, absentee father narrative – where a quality education, mental and emotional stability, self-confidence, and a safe home were things she could have only dreamed of having. Fortunately for Nicole, it was those exact statistics that drove her to become “anything but her family”.
As a dynamic, results-driven leader, Nicole has demonstrated success as the Director of several operational accounting teams, and while she is extremely committed to her role, the development of others, and being of service to them, Nicole’s true passion is dedicated to serving the Chicagoland area through True Mentors, Women’s Leadership efforts, as well as private speaking engagements. She specifically focuses on the inner city of Chicago and the young girls there. Her hunger to serve girls and women has prompted her to establish Living Virtuously LLC, focusing her efforts in motivational speaking and helping young girls triumph after being sexually abused.

Katrese has worked for Macy's, Clinique and Fashion Fair Cosmetics, where she has held various management roles. She is currently Regional Sales Manager for Coty Luxury. Her roles have allowed her to travel to London, Paris, South Africa, Kuwait, Canada and India.

Marchonda Sanders is a native of Chicago, IL. She has worked in the education field for 10+ years as a Math Specialist, Math Interventionist, middle school Math Instructor, professor and more. Her love for Christ and people has moved her to work in the ministry as a youth pastor and director for five years in the Chicagoland area, bible study teacher, and adviser on the collegiate level for 4 years. Being a military spouse has allowed her to travel and work with the Protestant Women of the Chapel (PWOC) at different bases as a small group leader sharing her devotion with ladies in hopes of motivating them to be brave to be themselves.
While running away from her calling in the church, Marchonda naturally gravitated towards people when it came to encouraging them to love themselves by building their self esteem through love.
Marchonda has a very supported husband of 9 years who allows her to do what she feels led to do and an 8 year old son who feels he must go wherever she goes to “protect her”.

I’ve been seeing and listening to lots of people and sometimes friends of mine expressing their regrets, complaints, negative attitude about their lives. Even though they have almost everything they need in their life. Nice Clothes, money, cars, high-tech gadgets, and all these “Luxury-Stuff” are there around the corner.
Having seen all of this, I thought, “what’s wrong with these people?”. They have everything that most people out there are dying for; money, cars, good house, delicious food, etc. But they’re not happy enough with their life. Oh what a pity life!
It’s silly sometimes, when you find someone who are rich and wealthy but they seem unhappy with their life. They are rich outside but -sorry to say- poor inside.
The only thing I believe causing all this is the lack of gratefulness. Or maybe they don’t have it at all. Something that really matter when we deal with the feeling of happiness. Yes, being grateful is the answer.
Be grateful for all we have, no matter how big or small they are. It’s a (special) gift that God has given us all. Remember, out there there are people who aren’t as lucky as us. That’s why we should always be grateful everyday. It’s not easy though, but we can make it a habit.
When we wake up in the morning, thank God for the new life, fresh air, good health, and all things we have. And (it’s better) while we do this, we also remember those who are homeless, poor, and in a dangerous place, and somewhere out there that are struggling for their lives, and some who are taking their last breath in hospitals, those people in a conflict countries, children who lost their parents and relatives, and the list goes on.
I believe when we do this everyday, we’ll be a grateful-person for the rest of our life. In the long run, there’s no need to be sad. There’s always happiness deep down. Finally, we’ll live our life to the fullest and of course to the happiest! 😉
Have a peaceful best day and…
Stay Healthy, Stay Happy!
