Martin Luther had a heart for Youth group music ministry. He wanted to make great songs relevant to the kids… check it out in his intro to his mate Johann Walters hymnal, the Wittenberg Geistliche Gesangbuchlein.

‘Therefore, I too, with the help of others, have brought together some sacred songs in order to make a good beginning and to give an incentive to those who can better carry on the Gospel and bring it to the people… And these songs were arranged in four parts for no other reason than I wanted to attract youth (who should be trained in music and other fine arts) away from love songs and carnal pieces and to give them something wholesome to learn instead… It is unfortunate that everyone else forgets to teach and train the poor young people; we must not be responsible for this too.’ Read the rest of this entry »

(Oh yeah, I’m going to spoil the ending in this article. You’ve had long enough…)

I have to admit, I jumped on the Harry bandwagon late. Quite late. I only picked up Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone last year, when my mum lent me a pile of books to read when Anastasia (my daughter) was napping. Prior to that, I had steadfastly refused to read the series, as I found the hype a bit irritating. I figured there was no way they could be as enjoyable as everyone was making out: which, in the words of Albus Dumbledore, “goes to show that the best of us must sometimes eat our words” (1).

It’s been a long time since I last wrote about India and all the crazy people I came across there. That was way back in the second J-Walk. I promised then, and I mean to make good on it now, that I would write about poverty in India.

India is a country of paradoxes. As a nation it is upwardly mobile. It currently has the highest population in the world. Public works like train systems and airports leave Australia far behind in terms of technology and accessibility. Read the rest of this entry »
