Listen "7 - Waiting for a Miracle"
Episode Synopsis
The ambient religious background of our town started to change when I was in Middle School and the Brownsville Revival happened. I started hearing stories about the Revival, and it sounded like something out of a movie - altar calls, full-water baptisms, people writhing around on the ground speaking in tongues. Over time, the religious fervor that was focused on the Church started bleeding into the town at-large, amplifying what was already a pretty religious community. People started speaking in tongues in school, falling out of their desks and convulsing. It was memorable.
I went once. I remember the sweat slowly staining through his entire shirt as he preached through the night. I remember the preacher walking around and touching people's foreheads, which caused them to instantly collapse and start writhing on the floor. I remember him walking up to me, and placing his hands on my head, and nothing happening.
In this episode we discuss:
Fear of faith
"Traditional" song structures
The Gamechanger Audio Light Pedal (or as I call it "atmosphere in a box")
