The music was mostly performed in plantation camps and in the open fields and a key feature was therefore a lack of formality and a lot of improvisation. Smith states that this trait carries on to date and contemporary music singers like Kirk Franklin still incorporates much of the improvisational, rhythmic dynamics of African music (1203).

Speaker 1 (00:01:07) - But as well, there were some, some interesting parts of his story that I thought were worth mentioning. So we're going to jump into that. It's going to be really awesome, obviously. But before we do that, I do want to just tell you really quick that we still have some spots open. This happens periodically. We've been fortunate to have a little bit more capacity lately. And so that means no wait listing. And so if you've been on the fence about our program or you really want to do it and haven't found the time, I would just say that now is your chance. Usually we get a little bit of a ramp up going into the holiday season and then in January it's absolutely crazy. And gosh, I don't even know what our capacity will be like in January. Once we are out of spots, we're out of spots, and that's the way it is. So if you're serious about about getting some help, I would just say sooner than later. While these spots are available, I can't promise they will be available for you later.

Speaker 1 (00:03:37) - And I'm not just about taking a celebrity name and trying to, like, blow it up so that you guys will be more interested. But I have to say, I really respect Kirk Franklin. I know he has not been a perfect example. You know, as far as a Christian man goes, he certainly had his share of issues and this would be one of them. But he's also had an incredible influence. My, my wife and I saw him perform in Toronto last summer. Is that right? Yeah. It was I guess it was last summer. My goodness, that was so long ago now. We saw him perform. We were really impressed by him. He was he was really fantastic. But we got to hear a bit of a story, you know, and it really got some, some major respect for him. And he, he did open up about his struggle with porn. Not not there at the event, but in other platforms. He's done that. And as I dove into the story, I realized, you know, there's some really interesting material here that I think you guys could benefit from.

Speaker 1 (00:04:33) - And so we're going to just jump into this a little bit. Now, in case you don't know who Kirk Franklin is, um, basically, there was a time probably about 20 years ago, where gospel music in the Christian realm arena was, was sort of a subgenre, and it was reserved a lot more for just just to be frank, for black people, black churches, churches that were accustomed to that. But it was not really considered mainstream. You had these other big worship movements that were dominated by white people, and that kind of had more white people worship music, if we can put it that way. And Kirk Franklin was the first gospel music artist that really broke into the mainstream in a, I would say, significant way. And others had done it as well. But Kirk Franklin was kind of like he was a bit of a pioneer, at least from my perspective. I know I'm probably gonna get some backlash for that, that, that narrative, but that's kind of my view of it.

Speaker 1 (00:05:30) - So. So anyways, a very influential man. And when someone like this is willing to share about their porn addiction, I listen, know my ears perk up and I go, okay, what can we learn from his story? So again, there's just little nuggets, but I, I think they're worth mentioning. So one of the things that that Kirk explains is that when he was adopted, sorry that he was adopted when he was four. So this is this is a quote from him. Now, my mama didn't want me. My daddy wasn't there. So there were a lot of insecurities. Porn was like company. Now we talk on the podcast a lot about how the opposite of addiction is not sobriety, it's connection. So it's interesting. I was a little bit taken aback by this because this this is like a very raw, real sharing on his part. This isn't like the you know, this was just my flesh versus my spirit. This was just the enemy. He acknowledged that porn actually provided him connection.

Speaker 1 (00:06:26) - Company was his word. And it's a great reminder for all of us that that often are. Misbehavior is simply the result of unmet needs. Which means if we can get those needs met healthily, well then hopefully we do not engage in the misbehavior. My mama didn't want me. My daddy wasn't there. So there were a lot of insecurities. And I. I will say that the most impactful thing that we do in our program by far, is kind of what we would classify as like inner child work or that sort of thing, working through wounds of the past, parent childhood dynamics, sorry, parent child dynamics in childhood, these things become crucial, critical really for somebody's long term recovery and lasting, lasting freedom. So again, this part of Kirk's story just kind of highlights that. And I thought that was really interesting. Now get this okay. So he got exposed at a young age. He starts watching. He opened up to his past when he was 15 years old. And his pastor's response was, you'll grow out of it.

Speaker 1 (00:08:32) - He did that wrong, or, oh, you know, what a fool for thinking that way. But the reality is, look, I can definitely relate to the insecurities driving porn addiction. I can relate to talking to church people and then not not really knowing how to handle it effectively. And I can relate to thinking that marriage would fix the problem. I was there through all of that. And so I think we're all in the same page here. No, no one's better. He was without sin. Cast the first stone. But what I would like to say to you is there is something in Kirk's story that really struck me, and I wanted you guys to to hear this. Kirk fumbled his way through his addiction. That's just the honest truth. But he did one thing that I would say a lot of guys are actually not brave enough to do so as a married man. Rather than waiting to get caught, Kirk confesses addiction to his wife. So that that says something that does something.

Speaker 1 (00:09:25) - When you confess, when you say, I've made this mistake, I have this problem, I need help, and you come forward. Good things happen. Or maybe I will say this way better things happen than if you waited to get caught. Now. His wife was hurt. So it's not like, hey, if you confess, then everything's just peachy keen and you can just carry on with your life status quo. Business as usual doesn't work that way. So she was hurt and there was a lot of contention over this. But for her, she had an interesting response. She said that sex had become so not special and she was worried that something was wrong with her. She could kind of tell like, hey, something feels off, and all of a sudden everything kind of connected. Now, because Kirk confesses addiction, he put the work in to get clean. He and his wife are actually still married to this day. And like I said, Kirk is still on tour and writing music and continuing to change the world.

Speaker 1 (00:10:24) - And I wanted to land here today, guys, because what I wanted, what I want to illustrate is hopefully if, if, if not my life, then maybe somebody like Kirk's life will show you that marriage does not fix your problem. It makes it worse that there are underlying issues within your heart that need to be addressed for you to feel fully experience a recovery, and that just because the church maybe hasn't been perfect and their response to you doesn't mean that you can't get the help you deserve and experience freedom. And on the other side of it, well, let's just remember that God turned his life around and continues to use him for his glory. And he can do the same for you. If you get nothing out of this, then hear this when you confess, good things happen, and if good things don't happen, better things happen than if you would have got caught. So that's everything for today guys. Thank you so much for listening. I hope you have an amazing day. Okay, we'll talk soon.
