Podcast Summary – Season 2, Episode 5: "The Turning Season"
Air Date: August 5
Hosted by Mike Brandon | Guest Segment with Teavana

In this spiritually rich episode of The Upper Room Faith Music Podcast, host Mike Brandon explores the theme of transformation as we enter a new season—both on the calendar and in our faith journeys. Titled "The Turning Season," the episode opens with reflections on the significance of the Hebrew month of Av and the upcoming shift into Elul, a time of repentance and preparation. In the Christian calendar, though labeled “Ordinary Time,” this season is framed as a moment for quiet growth and faithful alignment.

Mike shares global faith news, including revival events in Nigeria and interfaith prayer gatherings in Israel, emphasizing a worldwide call to intentional spiritual movement. The legacy artist spotlight highlights Cindy Morgan and her timeless anthem "I Will Be Free," followed by a segment from guest host Teavana, who reflects on key milestones in Christian music history—such as the impact of dc Talk’s Supernatural and Jaci Velasquez’s early acclaim.

Listeners are introduced to Jordan Elias, a 17-year-old from Dana Point, California, whose personal redemption story and debut single “Salt & Light” bring raw authenticity to the up-and-coming artist spotlight. The episode continues with Part 5 of Pastor Vic’s sermon series, “The Easy Yoke,” reminding believers that God’s call is not to weariness but to joy, trust, and spiritual ease.

The episode closes with a scripture reading from Psalm 16:11 and a heartfelt reminder from Mike Brandon that this is your turning season — a time to let go of the burden and embrace the fullness of God’s presence.

Season 2, Episode 4 – “Between the Straits and the Spirit: A Season of Return”

In this powerful and reflective episode, host Mike Brandon and guest host Carol explore the intersection of Christian and Jewish spiritual seasons, drawing parallels between the Ordinary Time of the Christian calendar and the Jewish period of mourning known as Bein HaMetzarim (“Between the Straits”). The central message: this is a sacred season of reflection, growth, and returning to God.

Featured segments include:

Artist of the Day: Point of Grace – Celebrating their enduring harmonies and healing sound, with a nod to their legacy since their 1993 debut.
This Week in Christian Music History: Carol revisits milestones from Amy Grant, Point of Grace, and Casting Crowns, offering a nostalgic lens on how far Christian music has come.
Emerging Artist Spotlight: Easy to Take Notes – A lo-fi worship duo creating intimate, scripture-infused music, highlighted by their track “Before the Dew Falls.”
Song of the Day:“Negev Skies” by Ruach Tzelit – A haunting acoustic jam blending Hebrew chants and desert-inspired instrumentation, calling listeners back to the wilderness.
Sermon by Pastor VICS Staples: “The Table in the Desert” – A message of hope and provision for those walking through dry, transitional seasons.
Bible Reading of the Day: Isaiah 43:19 – A timely reminder that God is doing a new thing, even in the wilderness.

Mike and Carol close the episode with an invitation to slow down, listen, and return to the Spirit in this unique moment of spiritual convergence.
