The Heart Behind March 5th’s “Nashville.Hearts.Haiti” Concert – Catching Up With Joshua Wienczkowski
I get choked up when I think that there's a child way down there that may get a blanket or food and think, "I'm clothed and fed... but what about someone to love me... what about a family?..." I can't even begin to comprehend the idea that because of one night, someone's life will NEVER be the same. The earthquake changed their lives in less than a minute, why can't we change their lives in less than a day? Love Wins!

3. March 2010
This week I wanted to share a song that pulls on my soul. Great art stirs emotions and listening to "Say it Louder" blended mine! I hope you enjoy it.

Once a month, Transparent Magazine will ‘publish’ a short issue with a couple of articles featuring an artist, author or person of interest. This individual will be interviewed, write an article of their own, and have their own ‘Video of the Week’ if it fits, and hopefully make an impact on your soul. This month’s [...]

29. January 2010
I met Maureen Murphy a few years ago while she was singing backup for a friend. I loved her voice and went to see her a few weeks later while she put on a blues/rock/soul show, and I was hooked. Seeing her live is nothing short of a spiritual experience. Recently we sat down to talk [...]

25. January 2010
My pastor friend understands (and helped to teach me) that “church” is NOT what happens for an hour on Sunday mornings, but a general term that ‘takes place’ wherever you are, if you listen and allow yourself to be available.

20. December 2009
Transparent: If this takes off, what do you plan to do with your profits? Kianna: I'm saving a 3rd of the money for more beads and stuff, and hope to make enough to eventually buy more valuable beads. Another 3rd I'm setting aside for the business, and the last 3rd I'm using as spending money. That makes up 90%, and the other 10% I give away. The spending money, I'm saving for something valuable... I really like those small laptops!

20. December 2009
Years ago I worked for a technology startup in Michigan. I didn’t foresee the tech bubble bursting or the owners embezzling borrowing our venture capital. That organization, like many organizations at that time who were otherwise healthy, quickly collapsed and I was out of a job. This pushed me reluctantly into my [...]

20. December 2009
Even though I have never met David Wilcox, listening to his music is comforting like an old friend. When my wife and I were dating 16 years ago, we took a trip to Tennessee (we had no idea we would live here someday) and while visiting a friend of ours, we were introduced to [...]

4. November 2009
I want him to be fierce like a warrior in defending himself and others. I want him to pursue positive passions. (He certainly has the tenacity!) I want him to lean towards idealism and to ask questions when he doesn't understand something. I want him to question authority and tradition (even mine). I want him to be kind and show God’s love to others in his actions. I want him to make good decisions when faced with challenges. I want him to find joy in music and peace in Jesus.
