This is a forum to suggest new features for mojoPortal.
Hello, I'm using Event Calendar Pro and have a feature request. I would find the addition of support for filtered List Views to be very helpful. In other words, the ability to have a List View instance display only specific events from a master calendar. One possible way to implement this would be to allow for a group or event type ID to be entered in the event detail. Then, after picking a data source on the List View instance, have a multiselect list showing the available event types, or even just a text box to enter a delimited string of event types that should be shown.
As it stands right now, it looks like I need to set up a second full calendar instance, and re-enter all of my target events again so that they will display in both calendars.
If there is a way to accomplish what I am trying to do in the current version, I'd love to hear about it! I've only been using it for a day, so it is possible I missed something.
Hello Shannon,
You can do this with the RSS Feed generated by the calendar.
Add the Feed Manager feature to a page and turn on the 'Selective Publishing' option. Next, add the RSS Feed url from calendar to the Feed Manager and view the page with the Feed Manager on it. Click the publishing link next to the Feed Manager title and select the items you want displayed.
You can also enable the 'Use Calendar View' option in the Feed Manager to show a calendar instead of a list.
Joe D.
Thanks for the reply, Joe! I'm still having a bit of trouble...when I go to select which events to publish, the feed manager is only showing me the next 20 items in the main calendar to choose from, none of which are ones that I want to publish (most of my publishable events don't start until mid-March). I've played around with the configuration settings of the feed manager, but haven't found one that makes more than 20 items show up in the list. I also verified the calendar feed setting for how far out in the future it will publish events was set far enough out, but no joy. Is there another setting elsewhere that has an impact on this behavior?

Is it a sensation or a tempest in a teacup? Brussels says the secret TTIP documents are nothing but blueprints. Making any progress in the free trade agreement with the US is tedious. Bernd Riegert from Brussels.
The scores of bracketed text passages in TTIP documents made available by Greenpeace are noticeable immediately. Everything in brackets represents either an EU or a US position, not a mutually agreed position. The texts are so-called consolidated chapters, designed to be a basis for further negotiation.
Speaking to reporters in Brussels, EU chief negotiator, Ignacio Garcia Bercero, made it very clear that the passages made public are by no means the outcome of negotiations, but proposals put forward by both sides. Nothing has been agreed, Garcia Bercero said, adding that the consolidated texts are a technical means of approximating positions.
The EU will never agree to many of the issues the US put in brackets, he said, adding that the really touchy matters won't be on the agenda until the very end of the talks. Nothing has been agreed until all questions are solved, Bercero emphasized.
Still worth continuing?
Greenpeace claims the US is putting pressure on the EU for approval of hormone-treated meat and genetically modified food. Beef is in fact one of the most difficult sticking points, according to Garcia Bercero, which is why negotiations on the issue haven't yet begun. The EU will never give in to Washington's demands, he added.
The various positions in the documents come as no surprise to Bernd Lange, an EU lawmaker who monitors the TTIP talks on behalf of the European Parliament. The US hasn't budged in three years of talks, he told DW. "At some point you have to ask, is it still worth it?" If the Americans won't move, we must have the courage to say that we simply can't do it, he said.
The leaked documents also show that problems concerning EU market access in the US are a stumbling block. The EU negotiator has confirmed the contents of the documents and pointed out that the entire Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership depends on agreement in this area. It's not clear whether the negotiations will be concluded by the end of US President Barack Obama's term, which ends on January 20, 2017. Garcia Bercero "We're not pressed for time."
Muzzling lawmakers
The German Industry Association (BDI), a group with a vested interest in a comprehensive free trade deal with the US, says in order for TTIP to succeed, you need high standards and transparent investment protection with a mechanism that allows for appeals. "It's a good thing that the EU Commission, the German government and the European Parliament have pledged not to open up our high protective standards."
The publication of the secret documents is a "service to democracy" said Sven Giegold, a Green Party financial expert in the European Parliament. He said he was allowed to read the documents in a reading room set up for that purpose in parliament, but he wasn't allowed to speak about it. "The reporters removed the muzzles forced on us in the reading room," he said, adding that many citizens are fed up with the wheeling and dealing in back rooms. "You need a minimum of transparency," Giegold said.
The EU has pointed out that Brussels always makes public its positions on its website, but that the US demanded secrecy concerning Washington's positions and insisted on brackets in the consolidated versions.
Where is the leak?
What are the consequences of the leak? Clearly, there will be an investigation into who could have possibly passed on the documents, Ignacio Garcia Bercero said. Only the negotiating delegation, a few select officials and a small group of lawmakers from the 28 EU member states, the European Parliament and the US Congress had access to the papers.
Just a few days ago in New York, the EU and the US concluded the last round of TTIP talks without any major breakthrough. "There's a great deal of trust between the delegations and the mood is good, too," the EU chief negotiator said, declining to speculate on what the leaks might set off. "Of course, everyone tries to push through their own interests."
German media say secret documents reveal the US has pressured the EU to approve a transatlantic free trade deal. The reports say Washington may block easier car exports if the EU doesn't open up its agricultural market. (01.05.2016)
The environmental organization has lambasted the agreement for giving "special legal rights" to companies. If approved, the trade deal would cover roughly one-third of global trade. (02.05.2016)

Em5+Nokton 17.5 pro list:
Body is smaller
Smaler RAW files
Faster lens
Faster camera (scrolling through pics, zooming etc.)
10(ish) pics per sec
Better allrounder (mostly goes for the camera body)
A7r+FE 28mm pro list:
Fullframe sensor
Great dynamic range
Sharper? (By a really thin hair.)
Lighter (around 340g, the A7 strap is on the Em5 in the picture above:p)/smaller (shorter lens)
Less noise
Great colors/tones
More "pop" (Even though f0.95 = f1.9 on fullframe)
Faster shutter speed
Lower ISO
Focus peaking
Auto Focus
And the winner is…? Dont know really. That depends on alot of things. the 12-32, 7.5mm and the 40-150 probably weighs the same togeather as 1 zoom lens does for the A7r.
For allround use, the mft system is great, there are light and small lenses. Small bodies with IBIS. Sure the never A7´s got that too but then they will be alot bigger and heavier.
The MFT system´s got the Noktons, so you can get short DOF and great sharpness. And then we have the Fullframe sensor 🙂 It has alot of cons, but also a few important pros, too some people.
Am i one of those people? i Think so… Not totally shure though.
Time will tell…

This darling nautical themed nursery belongs to adorable Helen, who was just five days old for this sweet session by J.A. Laub Photography. Helen's parents Kerry and Alan put a lot of love into planning her nursery, and they along with friends and family personally crafted many of the objects in the room. We love the clean white and gray base colors in the room that are accented with bold pink and navy elements. Read on for more details from Kerry about how the nursery design came together, then stop by the full gallery for all the photos!
"I created many different little aspects of the nursery along with my husband, Alan. Two of my favorite things about her nursery is the bedding and mobile. My dear friend Kristy made the beautiful quilt and my aunt Debbie made a matching crib skirt. The mobile was created by friends and family that all attended one of my baby showers. Each person created a 'poof' then Alan and I put together the mobile. In the center of the mobile are the poofs that Mommy and Daddy made. In the picture where we are reading a book, that is the book that I gave to Alan to tell him that we were going to have a baby. Two of our childhood toys are waiting on the bookshelf for her to grow big enough to play with them. We are thrilled to finally have our sweet girl."

Meditation Mastery Secrets Review
Meditation Mastery Secrets
The Meditation Mastery Secrets is service geared towards self-development and fulfillment. The self-development is focused on the mind. The author of this Book is Jason Stephenson. The author took us on a journey of how he was able to discover the underlying principles and secrets of meditation. The invention was accidental which coincided with his situation at that moment.
Jason was a talented singer and managed to scale through all competition he participated in back to back. He visited many countries like Malaysia, Taiwan, Australia and many other countries for singing competitions and came top in almost all. But still, life was not fair to him. His boss and supporters refused to acknowledge his efforts and talents. He gave up on his dreams of being a singer because he saw no future in it. As a result, he of it became unemployed. Jason signed up for unemployment grants and started living a wayward life. He engaged himself in drug abuse, alcoholism and many other things that caused serious problems to his health, all in search of ways to curb depression. This situation also made him start sleeping around with strangers. But clearly, to him, he was not living the life he always dreamt of.
The consequences of his wayward life later dawned on him. His health was in a bad situation. Jason was having bad symptoms that show he is not fully healthy. He had to go to the hospital to diagnose this. One week later after his diagnosis, his doctor had to call him and broke the bad news to him. He is now HIV positive. Jason was saddened and traumatized. The depression grew worse that he saw himself dying soon. And to get out of this dilemma he started giving himself hope that he is still living. He changed the acronym HIV which means "Human immunodeficiency Syndrome" and gave it another meaning "Here in vitality". From then his visualization about HIV changed. He started making research about meditation, it was the that Meditation Mastery Secrets was born. For twelve years he has made several developments on his invention.
Jason went for a show in America and had an encounter with Arnold Schwarzenegger. Arnold Schwarzenegger told him the story of how he came to America with the dream of becoming the best bodybuilder in the world. Buddha's secret took Arnold Schwarzenegger to the heights of greatness in 4 different careers as an Entrepreneur, a bodybuilder, a Movie star and a politician. Jason Stephenson disclosed that Arnold Schwarzenegger used meditation secrets to improve his career. Other great men that tapped into this useful resource are Steve Jobs, Tiger Woods, David Bowie, Jennifer Aniston and more.
Why should I be convinced about the Buddha's Secret?
After reading about Jason Stephenson what I will actually ask myself is "am I really convinced with what this product has done?" of course I should be. Seeing different scenarios where it has raise men from nothing to something. We all believe that anything that happens has a reason. I am very sure that you are convinced that this product has something tangible to offer.
Also, Jason gave a little insight into mediation Techniques. He introduced transcendental mediation which includes Visualization, affirmation, and meditation. When you talk about visualization, you visualize yourself living the life of your dreams. Your subconscious mind doesn't know the difference between reality and imagination, when you reprogram yourself your subconscious mind, in turn, stimulates your conscious mind and strengthens your being. Affirmation sometimes called incantation means being positive that something will happen. It can also mean being optimistic about something. Jason describes that affirmation is choosing a short positive phrase and chanting it always. Just like he transformed HIV from the initial meaning to "Here in Vitality".
What Can this product help solve and what is it intended for?
This product as explained by the author is user-friendly. It is newbie friendly in the sense that anybody can make use of it. It does not require an intermediate level or any technical skills.
The problems solved by Mastery secrets include:
• It helps you understand and fix any problem you might face.
• Helps Eliminate brain fog.
• You will be able to visualize anything you want at will.
• You will finally find that focus you need to get what you want.
• Say goodbye to stress and worry and struggle will be things of the past.
• Free yourself from the expectation and limitations other people placed on you.
• Your timing will become uncanny.
• Once you really master Meditation Mastery Secrets, you may even seem to age backward.
• Influence others with a power and ease you have never imagined before.

IT'S the biggest night in the musical calendar - and the stars were keen to hit the high notes when it came to style.
Guests flooded into London's O2 Arena for the 39th Brit Awards, with the show airing on ITV at 8pm.
Caroline Flack and Louise Redknapp were top of the fashion charts, both opting for chic LBDs.
But not everyone scored a number one hit on the red carpet, with former Love Islander Montana Brown missing the high notes after her see-through nude dress got stuck in her bum.
Here's our pick of this year's outfits...
For the second year running, Jack Whitehall is hosting the show tonight.
In November 2018, we exclusively revealed that the comedian had signed up for the second time.
In 2018 viewers were left in stitches when he asked Cheryl Tweedy and Liam Payne if they had a sex "safe" word.

This may look like a new way to watercolor, but Peerless watercolors are over 130 years old! These rich watercolor pigments are highly concentrated and stored on heavy sheets that are ready to be activated with water. They are 100% non-toxic and when properly stored out of direct sunlight, will never "go bad." These colors are unique in their ability to "self-blend," so combining colors will never result in a muddy appearance. Instead, Peerless watercolors blend seamlessly together and appear just as vibrant once dry. In the video below I used an embossing technique to keep the multiple colors contained within the stamped image's separate segments. Check out how easy they are to use!

Medicare Beneficiaries' Access to Preventive Services: Diabetes Self-Management Training, Medical Nutrition Therapy, and Health and Behavior Assessment and Intervention
Phone: 859.218.0108
Diabetes self-management education and training (DSMT) is an important part of clinical management of diabetes that helps persons with diabetes stay healthy. The American Diabetes Association recommends persons with diabetes receive DSMT at diagnosis and as needed thereafter. Diabetes education is associated with increased use of primary and preventive services and lower use of acute, inpatient hospital services. DSMT has also been associated with increased glycemic stability among diabetic patients. Furthermore, nutrition-based interventions have proven to be both effective at producing physical indicators of increased metabolic health, an important aspect of diabetes management, and cost-effective in terms of savings generated by their usage.
However, previous studies have shown that utilization of DSMT services is altered by geographic region and availability of such services, despite coverage by Medicare Part B. Using the publicly available Medicare Provider Utilization and Payment Data supplemented by unique clinic site and physician-level information for 30,000 family physicians nationally that is only available through the American Board of Family Medicine, we propose to investigate geographic disparities (i.e., rural versus urban) in the provision of DSMT, Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT), and Health and Behavior Assessment and Intervention (HBAI) and identify whether challenges or barriers exist for rural providers in billing for these services, as well as propose solutions to addressing challenges faced by providers in billing for these services in disparate populations. Using national county-level aggregate totals of DSMT, MNT, and HBAI services among Medicare fee-for-service beneficiaries from 2012 to 2015, we will compare rural and urban providers to determine characteristics of the practice sites on a national level.
It is expected that this research will generate at least one policy brief or manuscript and one abstract for presentation at a national level.

A guest house above the garage, screened porch, Jacuzzi, and organic vegetable/flower garden are just a few of the extras. The location is just as exceptional with only 25 min to Hudson, 10 min to Chatham, 4 min to the farm market in Kinderhook, and 2 min to the Winding Brook Country Club for swimming and golf. Life will be just that much sweeter while you enjoy the bounty of the Hudson Valley from this extraordinary home.

Today I'm bringing up a subject that can be haunting to every producer – Mastering. Now I'm not an expert on the subject. I'm still in the process of learning the ropes of it. But I have noticed a HUGE difference when I started using these next few tips I'm going to share with you. Let's get to it!
Now, of course a lot of work comes in the mixing phase, including EQ. This might not be enough though. There's something I started noticing about my older beats: they sounded to "boxy". Come up with whatever term you prefer, but that's exactly how my beats sounded – like they were in a box. This was solved mostly with EQ'ing in the mastering phase. If you mix the track well enough and cut all the low levels that aren't necessary, that will reduce the chance of the beat sounding "boxy", but it also helps to use a Mid / Side EQ on the mastering phase. This is ideal if you center the low levels and widen the mids and highs to the sides. It'll make your track sound wider and clearer. A great EQ I use for this is the BlueCat's Triple EQ, for example.
Though it's not essential in the mastering phase, it can come in handy to use a small reverb effect on the overall master track. Attention – don't overdo it. You just want to give a sniff of it, enough to make the whole beat feel more "glued" together. Play around with the Dry / Wet knobs and the Size to make it sit right with the beat. I'd suggest trying the TAL-Reverb 2.
Multiband Compression
Whereas a normal compressor will have effect on the whole sound you're using it on, the multiband compressor will hit different frequencies in different ways. It's great to get a louder sound in a more natural way – don't just boost that dB level up, come on – while making the track sound tighter. The way I usually use it is by giving a faster attack and release on the mid and high frequencies and the opposite for lower frequencies. For this I use Ableton's Multiband Compressor, but I'm sure that you'll find a variety of great plugins online, that'll do the exact same thing.
This is where experiencing with different plugins might be the trick. Each exciter gives a different type of sound, but the general idea is to add harmonics to the track. I myself go with La Petite Excite and I personally use it to give a certain extra clarity to the highs as well as boost the lows. Let me just say one thing though, if you decide to use this plugin. It gives a very noticeable effect. I rarely go past 0.70 with its levels, so play around with it, but keep it low.
Last step. Well, maybe not the last one. A lot of people will use a stereo widener before adding the Limiter to the equation. I myself have used it before. However, if you mix / master the track well enough, even though it won't hurt to add a little widener, you probably won't feel the need to use it. As for the Limiter, in case you don't already know, it's a way to get your track to sound louder, without clipping. When you mixed the track in mind, you should've left room (decibels in this case) for the beat to grow louder, in the mastering phase. By doing all I mentioned before, the track will indeed and inevitably sound louder, but you want it to hit around 0 dB. Add a Limiter. If you start boosting everything, you'll ruin the mix as well as clip your track, so when you finish everything, add a Limiter, make the ceiling hit around 0.30 to 0.20 dB, and just play around with the Output Gain. What I usually do is listen to a commercial track and compare its loudness to the track I'm working on, and use it as a guideline. Even though it boosts your volume, you don't want to overdo it. All in moderation.
Long text, yea, I know. But hope it helps someone out. These little tricks helped me out a lot, so I think it might do the same for you. Either way, leave any feedback or suggestions on the comments below.

Friday Financial TipOctober 7, 2016 8:34 am Leave your thoughts
One question I frequently hear is how to responsibly rebuild your credit after falling behind on your debts—whether or not you have actually filed bankruptcy.
To help with this question I had the pleasure of having Mr. Patrick Redo, CEO (not president) of the Monterey County Employees Credit Union on my radio show. Check out our conversation here!
Pat, what are the benefits of starting a relationship with a local credit union rather than, say, a large national bank?
- We are locally owned and operated, loan decisions are made by us and you can talk actually come in we will discuss your finances in a private office.
- We offer 99.9% of the same services as the larger banks and our incentive is to earn your trust and loyalty so that you consider us for all your financial needs. We would like to take the time to get to know you and how we can help work to better your life as a student, first time homebuyer, young parent or in retirement.
- We have Rewards Checking, FREE telephone, Bill Pay, On-Line and mobile banking in other words access in person or electronically you control the banking experience.
When a consumer is starting to have financial trouble, is it really helpful to contact a creditor before collection calls begin?
- Definitely, at our credit union we will gather the same information from you that we requested when you took out the loan originally as we are trying to determine if/how we can help you afford the loan payment you currently have.
- We have been able to rewrite the term and rate on loans to help the borrower if they are doing their best to honor their commitments. We will also be honest and tell you if you have put yourself in a corner or on new loan requests strategies that can help you towards a positive solution although sometimes that may take a little patience on the borrowers part.
- We believe in relationships and the basis for that trust is communication. We will always try to minimize damage to credit reports as you are borrowing money from the other members of the credit union, not a corporation, and as an owner you are helping our community by repaying the debt so that others can borrower your portion.
Pat, we hear frequent advertisements from folks who claim they can rebuild your credit "in no time" or even slash your debt balances by large amounts. Are these claims credible?
- Unfortunately, unless you are working with a reputable company and I would start with the Better Business Bureau or a good lawyer it is as the old expression says, "if it sounds too good to be true, it probably isn't". Quick cash and title loans are usually high rate loans creating longer term problems.
- Again, I would start with you financial institution and if they are not able to help talk to a reputable financial advisor as most of these companies you mentioned are here today and gone tomorrow not unlike mortgage companies in the height of the real estate bubble.
How can building a relationship with a credit union help a consumer rebuild his or credit?
- Something as simple as establishing a savings account to use as collateral for a credit card, by law we cannot charge more than 18% on any loan regardless of credit score and that is substantially lower that banks and in many cases lower than their starting rate on credit cards for example. We offer a Loyalty program where we can reduce your rate up to 2% if you make your payments on time and otherwise improve you score over 12 months and then up to another 2% in the second year. We want to set our members up for success.
- Those people who have claimed bankruptcy and not caused a loss to our credit union can get a loan from us. No different than any loan request we will ask for proof of income, run a credit report and follow the normal process asking for explanations as to what caused the bankruptcy. If you have paid on your Chapter 13 you are more likely to get a loan, a Chapter 7 is a little more difficult unless it has been discharged for over a year. We will also consider loaning to you if your medical related expenses have created a financial hardship.
- I had mentioned patience in the answer to your previous question and I suspect that if you attempt to borrow $10,000 and we tell you why $5,000 may be all you can afford and to set your sites lower for the short term it allows you to develop a strategy to rebuild plus the knowledge of why/how you can build for the long term.
Thank you so much, Pat, for your very helpful comments. Folks, it never hurts to get input from the professionals who deal with credit every day. I have recommended credit unions to my clients for many years as a step on the path to re-entering the credit world on a responsible basis. Pat's comments reaffirm this belief.

The Cry of the Oppressed
Exodus 3:1-12
January 11, 2009
Let's begin this morning's message by reading together from the Word of God, the book of the Exodus, chapter 3. We are picking up the story of God's work among the Israelites about 400 some years after the death of Joseph. Moses has been born and he has been living out in the desert, tending sheep, for about 40 years or so. This is where we pick up the story of God shaking Moses' world, shaking the Israelites' world, shaking the world of Pharaoh, and shaking the world. Nothing was the same after that encounter; everything changed.
Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father-in-law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the desert and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 2 There the angel of the LORD appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up. 3 So Moses thought, "I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does not burn up."
When the LORD saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, "Moses! Moses!"
And Moses said, "Here I am."
"Do not come any closer," God said. "Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground." 6 Then he said, "I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob." At this, Moses hid his face, because he was afraid to look at God.
The LORD said, "I have indeed seen the misery of my people in Egypt. I have heard them crying out because of their slave drivers, and I am concerned about their suffering. 8 So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey—the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. 9 And now the cry of the Israelites has reached me, and I have seen the way the Egyptians are oppressing them. 10 So now, go. I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt."
But Moses said to God, "Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?"
And God said, "I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain."
A month or so ago, I was in my bed on a Saturday morning, sleeping wonderfully, dreaming, when the phone rang. I rolled over and answered the phone and whose voice did I hear at 8:30 or so but Dana She began by telling me that she was traveling with her husband and reading the paper while she was driving and talking to me on the phone. I asked her to turn down the radio for a minute…
She continued by telling me that she had just read in the paper that the Madison Food Center was losing its free rented space and only had 6 months or so before they had to be out of the Lantern. I was surprised because I, along with Linda, Ellen and my son Jerry, work at the food center and I had heard nothing at all from the directors with whom I am also friends, and who had been at our church a month or so previously to share with us the ministry of the food center.
That was about the extent of the conversation. I called Chris later that morning and eventually, after some phone tag, we talked and she confessed the entire story to me: Dana had told the truth. Thus I became aware of a vast right wing conspiracy to undo our congregation: Here was just the opportunity we had been waiting for. Finally, God was beginning to entrust us with some talents. Finally, we might be able to discover our niche in this community, we might be able to grow, we might be able to minister to hungry people in this community.
"Scripture renders a living, breathing, demanding personality, not a set of freestanding, self-evident, abstract, allegedly biblical propositions. Yet then again, a personality with whom we are in relationship obligates us, demands that we take our place in the relationship. In Jesus, salvation and vocation are linked. The pardon and freedom of salvation carries with it a summons. Friendship is inherently demanding, which is one reason why we have so few friends. A proposition asks only our intellectual assent to what makes sense to us. An abstraction or a generality, no matter how noble, will never move us to love or to give half of all we've got to the poor" (William Willimon, Who Will Be Saved?, 116)
A week or so ago I finished reading a book that I never in a million years thought that I would like just because I have heard 'things' about one of the book's authors and I was sure that he was a heretic and didn't deserve my time or attention or my $19.99 plus tax and tip. Nevertheless, my wife Renee bought me Jesus Wants to Save Christians for Christmas and I was undone by page one. The book is a scant 181 pages and that is a generous figure given the style of the book. (Jesus Wants to Save Christians by Rob Bell and Don Golden)
"Jesus," the authors write, "Wants to save our church from thinking that the priests are somebody else." (Jesus Wants to Save Christians, 178 ) And their point is quite realistic: When the church becomes consumed by an attitude of entitlement, that is, when we start thinking the church is all about us, when we forget that it is all a gift of God's grace, then we forget that God has not just called us to salvation, but to vocation: "Entitlement leads to immunity to the suffering of others, because 'I got what I deserve' and so, apparently, did they." (125)
In the book, the authors cite some statistics that are rather horrifying and all the worse because they are true. I'll reference a few:
One Billion people in the world do not have access to clean water, while the average American uses four hundred to six hundred litres of water per day. I have a 40 gallon hot water tank that is emptied at least 4 times a day so that my family can be clean.
Every seven seconds, somewhere in the world a child under the age of five dies of hunger. Americans throw away 14 percent of the food we purchase. I watch the kids at the middle school—some of them get a lunch and dump it in the trash before they sit down.
Nearly one billion people in the world live on less than one American Dollar a day.
Another 2.5 billion live on less than 2. There an estimated 6 billion people in the world which means that more than half live on less than 2 American dollars per day.
Nearly 1 billion people in the world cannot read or sign their own name.
I don't tell you these things to make you feel guilty. "Guilt is not going to solve a single one of these problems." I'm not telling you these things because I think all of you are safe from them. I'm not telling you these things to justify any personal ambition I might have.
I'm telling you these things because these are the very people God means to redeem. These are the people, the undone of this world, that Jesus means to save. Luke 7 gives us a brilliant picture of who Jesus saves:
At that very time Jesus cured many who had diseases, sicknesses and evil spirits, and gave sight to many who were blind. 22So he replied to the messengers, "Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy[b] are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised, and the good news is preached to the poor. 23Blessed is the man who does not fall away on account of me."
I think what he means is this: Blessed are they who don't fall away on account of me because I am not what they expected. Blessed are they who don't fall away on account of me because I reach out and save the one's the world rejects. This Jesus! Here's what I wrote in a devotional yesterday at my blog:
I think they recognized it too. Consider what they said, "A great prophet has appeared among us. God has come to help his people" (Luke 7:16). Oh, I have heard this before haven't I? "I have indeed seen the misery of my people in Egypt. I have heard them crying out because of their slave drivers, and I am concerned about their suffering. So I have come down to rescue them from the hands of Egyptians and to bring them up…" (Exodus 3:7-8).
This Jesus—I have asked before—what sort of person is he who welcomes in such riff-raff? Won't they mess up our church? Won't they break things and get stains on the carpet? What of these blind who see, what if they try to get us seeing the way Jesus has them seeing? What if the deaf try to get us hearing the way Jesus has them hearing? What if the lame try to get us walking the way Jesus has them walking? What if the poor try to make us as rich as Jesus made them? What if the dead try to get us living the way Jesus has them living? "The Son of man came eating and drinking, and you say, 'Here is a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners.'
"Sometimes the will of God is scary because he is asking us to choose between a life that looks successful and a life that is actually significant, between a life that wins the applause of our peers and a life that actually transforms lives through love" (Gary Haugen, Just Courage: God's Great Expedition for the Restless Christian, 119)
I think we have to seriously ask ourselves: Why am I a Jesus follower? Or, when I followed Jesus, did I count the cost? Or, when Jesus called me, did I leave all behind, take up a cross and follow Him? Or, since he has saved me, what does he expect me to do, to be, and how? Here's what Peter wrote:
But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 10Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy.
The cry of the oppressed goes up before our God. In the church we have made salvation too personal, too much a transaction between me and God for my sins with the expectation that once my sins are dealt with, that's quite enough. But he calls us to more! The cry of the oppressed goes up before God and God, blessed Be His Name!, rescues them. He rescued Israel from Egypt and made them into a kingdom and priests so that they in turn might be his servants in the world, his witnesses, his people; and we too. We are those he has called out of darkness, transferred from the dominion of darkness, and into his kingdom of light, to declare his praises.
I believe in my heart that this Madison Food Center is God's way of showing us our niche in this community. If the current economic crisis this country is facing continues to worsen, people are going to increasingly need food and other real-life supplies. They are going to go somewhere to get them. This opportunity with the Food Center is, in my heart's belief, God's way of saying: Here is the community of Madison; minister to it in the name of Jesus; feed it; become a community of priests to the hungry and thirsty and beggars of Madison.
The Food Center directors and board want to be here. This is God's way of saying, "Be my hands, my feet. Learn from my heart and love this community." In spite of our smallness, in spite of our struggles, in spite of our history—God is giving us an opportunity to be trusted. The cry of the oppressed has gone up before God; he has heard it; and he has come down in the form of the Body of Christ to help this community. The Scripture declares rather unashamedly that we, the Church are the Body of Christ. God our Father has conscripted us in friendship to be His hands and feet.
The church was never meant to be created or to live in a vacuum. We were meant to live in the world—which is why Jesus prayed specifically that God would not take us out of the world (John 17). Just as God sent Moses to call and witness to Israel, so he calls us to go and witness to this world. But He didn't call Israel just for salvation. He called them for vocation. That is, He gave them a job to do.
"I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain."
Many of you live each day in that world—I mean the world outside. Renee works at the bank where she has the unenviable task of sometimes telling her customers that they have overdrawn their accounts or that the money they thought they had they don't.
I work at the school where if I see some kids throw away lunches, I see other kids whose parents cannot buy them a lunch or don't have enough sense or have too much pride to fill out the free or reduced lunch schedule.
And what of the people who call this very office for food, rent, utilities, etc. It is easy to harden the heart; it's much more difficult to have your heart broken and sell all you have and give to the poor. It's easy to make a thousand excuses; it's much harder to understand why God is moved with compassion to come down and rescue the oppress, to hear their cry, to touch the bier of the dead man and give him back to his mother, to heal the centurion's servant, to heal the sick, the lame, the blind, and the deaf; to raise the dead. But these are the very things that Jesus did. These are the very things he tells us to do: Go!
Yesterday, I woke up early enough to drive to prayer meeting here at the church building. I worshiped some others in a nice warm room. I went home and ate good food, the kind I like. I had a nice snack later on and spent some money on take-out pizza. I enjoyed cool beverages all day; hot tea for breakfast. I took a hot shower and wrote all day and listened to music. I blogged. I enjoyed my sons, my wife—even my dogs. I slept in a warm bed.
I didn't go hungry yesterday. I thank God I had enough to have all that I needed and more.
But I'd like to think that if I did have a need there would be a people who were willing to minister to me and my family in the name of Christ.
"Jesus wants to save our church from thinking that the priests are somebody else."
In other words, he wants us to open our ears to the cry of the oppressed in this community. He hears their cries and chooses someone to send to rescue them. Are we willing to?

I thought if we could've just hit five more of those free throws, we'd have been in good shape. If you'd have said we'd get 86 points, I'd of thought we'd have a win. We shot the ball fairly well, but we didn't get the stops we really needed. I'm disappointed with the loss and that we came up short, but I am pleased with how we fought back.

On Monday, Nike confirmed it signed former N.F.L. quarterback Colin Kaepernick to a new, multiyear deal that will star him in the company's iconic "Just Do It" ad campaign.
Just hours after the announcement, the backlash began against Nike. Many Americans are outraged that the sports apparel company is using the former San Francisco 49ers quarterback - who sparked controversy last year for kneeling during the national anthem - in its 30th anniversary ad campaign.
The hashtags #BoycottNike and #JustBurnIt were soon trending on Twitter, while some consumers even posted photos and videos in which they burnt Nike merchandise in protest. In fewer than 24 hours, Nike shares fell as much as 3.9% - its largest intraday dip in five months.
So far, however, Nike is unfazed. The company had to have anticipated such a response from many Americans, and clearly decided that the pros of a deal with Kaepernick outweigh the cons. As such, it would appear the timeless idea that "any press is good press" is being put to the test.
By piggybacking on the heated kneeling-during-the-national-anthem debate - which President Trump repeatedly has weighed in on - Nike has ensured it remains "relevant" for weeks, if not months or longer.
In fact, not only has Nike made a social and political statement to the public, it also has used a powerful topic that challenges societal norms as a vehicle to positively boost its brand awareness with, it must assume, most consumers.
While expressing opinions on heated social issues was once a marketing no-no for companies, consumers now appreciate brands that do - as long as the opinion is in line with popular sentiment.
With the spotlight back on Kapaernick, both the promises and pitfalls of socially responsible marketing have also been highlighted by the public's response: While some people promised a boycott, others praised Nike for taking a stand.
Socially conscious marketing is starting to pay off
It has been a longstanding practice among American companies to avoid controversy - especially if it's political. Understandably, worry runs deep among businesses that stock prices could suffer as a result of bad PR, boycotts or by alienating certain customers.
Various recent studies have confirmed those fears: In 2014, Global Strategy Group found that 44% of Americans felt it was inappropriate for companies to take political stands, while last year a survey from the American Association of Advertising Agencies found there was "more risk than benefit" in brands taking on political and social issues.
And yet, in recent years, many companies have been shedding these concerns, voicing their stances loudly and publicly through their marketing operations. With 57% of consumers willing to boycott brands that don't share their values, many companies are ready to risk the fallout of making their opinion known.
Indeed, consumers increasingly value "brand purpose" as they expect - and sometimes even demand - companies to take stands on issues. Research has revealed that 73% of people believe that companies should do more than just offer a product or service.
The growing purchasing power of millennials - a highly socially conscious generation - has especially been driving this trend.
Acording to a 2015 study from Cone Communications, 91% of millennials said they would change their purchasing decision in favor of a brand that supports a cause they believe in. Moreover, the demographic's active use of social media is a major factor as they proactively engage with, and promote, brands that are connected to causes they care about.
Consider that, a report by global advertising company Havas found that three-quarters of consumers want brands to contribute to their quality of life.
These days, by associating itself with a specific cause or issue, a company provides consumers the opportunity to express their own values by paying for a product or service. As an added benefit, those customers are also strengthening their personal investment in that brand.
And...it pays. According to Havas, stocks of "meaningful brands" on average performed twice as well as stock indices.
Authenticity still matters
Crucially, marketers that are considering taking on socially or politically charged topics must be aware that the potential risk can match, if not outweigh, the possible reward.
By entering a heated socio-political debate, a company loses control of its message. In such cases, intent can be meaningless, and all that matters is the public's perception. If an ad misses the mark - coming off as inauthentic or misunderstanding an issue - the damage can be huge.
A recent example: Pepsi's ad earlier last year featuring Kylie Jenner. Within 24 hours of airing, it had to be pulled due to public outcry that the commercial was trivializing social causes such as Black Lives Matter, appropriating them to sell soda.
Ultimately, though, Nike's decision to back Kapaernick will provide an invaluable marketing case study. As the case unfolds, it will undoubtedly provide plenty of do's and dont's of issue-based marketing.
