Are you indeed alive unto God? Can you say with truth, “I was dead and am alive again; I was blind, but now I see”? Then accept this word of exhortation and lean your heart toward wisdom.

Are you alive? Then see that you prove it by your actions. Be a consistent witness. Let your words, works, ways, and attitudes all tell the same story. Do not let your life be a poor, sluggish life, like that of a tortoise or a sloth. Instead, let it be an energetic and passionate life, like that of a deer or a bird. Let your grace shine out from all the windows of your conversation so that those who live near you may see that the Spirit is abiding in your heart. Do not let your light be a dim, flickering, uncertain flame, but let it burn steadily like the eternal fire on the altar and never become low. Let the savor of your religion, like Mary’s precious ointment, fill all the houses where you live. Be a letter of Christ so clearly written and penned in such large, bold characters that those who run may read it (2 Corinthians 3:2). 

Let your Christianity be so unmistakable, your eye so clear, your heart so whole, and your walk so straightforward that all who see you may have no doubt about whose you are and whom you serve. If we are made alive by the Spirit, no one ought to be able to doubt it. Our conversation should declare plainly that we seek a better country – a heavenly one. It ought not to be necessary to tell people, as in the case of a badly painted picture, “This is a Christian.” We ought not to be so sluggish and still that people will be forced to come close, look hard, and say, “Is he dead or alive?”

Baxie's Musical Podcast: Robbie Grey from Modern English

Whether it's '80s new wave, '90s alternative, 2000s emo, or 2010s indie dance-punk, all rock'n'roll shares a common thematic bond if you examine it closely enough. This mashup contains an assortment of five hard-driving, heart-pumping, enduring rock hits which fit together surprisingly well in spite of their disparate origins. Here they are, in order of release date:

Modern English - I Melt with You (1982)
Gin Blossoms - Follow You Down (1996)
Prime STH - I'm Stupid (Don't Worry 'Bout Me) (2001)
Yellowcard - Ocean Avenue (2003)
Two Door Cinema Club - What You Know (2011)

Where might rock music be headed in the 2020s and beyond? Well, in the words of Modern English, "the future's open wide"!

Here's yet another classic 80's anthem re-done ala grunge/hard rock! This was a fun one to learn & record... I used a couple Arnaud Krakowka drum tracks & another one for the heavy toms during the chorus. For the guitars I used my Dean Exile & the Schecter SGR primarily. I also ended up using my Schecter Omen for some lead work. I busted out the short-scale Gretsch Bass for this one. I play it a few bpm's faster than the original... I guess I'm pretty happy with the outcome. I'm definitely surprised at how well the humming part came out! I was thinking of not even doing it because I didn't think the mic would really pick it up right, but it sounds great! Enjoy "I Melt With You" by Modern English!

80's Gen X New Waver Mobile Disco/Club Spinner in High School & College; Silicon Valley CA Product Engineering Executive/Solid State Drive Geek; Spent most of my allowances on extended, remixes and hard to find esoteric 12" dance vinyl records, used to frequent record stores in SF Bay Area (Amoeba, Rasputins, Tower, Record Factory, Star, etc.) on weekends and after class.  Still love to visit record stores & dig through bins of used records when i go on business trips. Recorded 100's of mixed tapes for classmates/friends and hours & hours in front of the turntables. Count the BPMs, find the intros and breaks and move on the next. Enjoy Generation X underground Club Music. Happy listening! Cheers! 💾🎧📻

Hans and Danise are a duet couple that have been performing together since November 2014. They both complement each other's voices with a mix of melody and harmony as well as a difference in voice styles. They are hoping music will take them far, but no matter how far, they'll enjoy the ride step by step, because that's what love and music can do.

Been playing guitar for 30 years now (as of 2019)! This station is simply me playing guitars, bass, my little drum machine and sometimes vocals too all recorded & mixed through Audacity free software. I used to be in a band called Means to an End from the Akron/Kent area in late 90's thru early 2000's and anything I've re-recorded from that time is marked MTAE. Mostly original music here although I do indulge in the occasional cover tune.
