In this episode I share with you two beautiful books that arrived as gifts the other day. If you are interested in Diana Glyer's book you can find it on US amazon here:www.amazon.com/Potters-Hands-...
and in the UK here: www.amazon.co.uk/Potters-Hand...
My friend Lancia smith who sent me the book about violin making has her own beautiful website, dedicated to cultivating the true, the good, and the beautiful here:
thecultivatingproject.com
Finally, if you would like to encourage me in keeping this channel going you could always pop round and buy me a coffee on this page (until the glad day comes when we can share proper coffees in a real coffee shop!

beautiful words on craftsmanships that you choose to read to us. Especially since I play the violin and also go to an art academy where we have a amazing pottery workshop

I loved this.... A few years back I heard a woodpecker fly from tree to tree at Trumpington- meadows. Each had a different sound as he pecked. Since then the trees have become glockenspiels in my mind, the woodpecker a musician who shares with us, the spirit of the Creator.

@Lian Van I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

I was playing because it has these harmonics. I love this guitar. 🎸It's sort of made on the lines of a violin.

That is very beautifully crafted and fine sounding guitar. What a lovely pair of gifts to receive and share with us, the lesson of appreciating the strength we grow through adversity rather than ease is an important one.

@MalcolmGuitespell 3 жыл бұрын

it is indeed. I see you too have a fine array of instruments. I was fascinated by your sequence about making the Anglo-Saxon Lyre - I'm very tempted but I don't think I have the skill

@@MalcolmGuitespell lol you do pretty well I love playing the guitar but only for my own fun I don't think anyone else would want to listen! Haha but it's enjoyable And we share the love of Bob Dylan who is one of my very favorites. Great video again

Isaiah 49 is a precious passage for me. Clay remaining in the potter's hands. Fingerprints remaining on the post-fired piece. With the quality of trees forged through adversity. Great blessing.

Your comments bring to mind a book I read last year (and want to read again), Liturgy of the Ordinary: Sacred Practices in Everyday Life, by Tish Harrison Warren, an ACNA priest.

Hello Malcolm. I only just found and subscribed to your channel after a friend in the KZfaq Pipe Community nominated you for the 5 and 3 challenge. For reference take a peek at Leo Aldopold’s last video. I am quite excited to see the rest of your videos. Take good care, Stephen

As easy as it is to believe in chaos and turmoil, serendipity and synchronicity like that are proof of an underlying flow and pattern. Created by us? God? Both?

@MalcolmGuitespell 3 жыл бұрын

yes, I think that underlying flow and pattern are given by god but its up to use to steer float and sail in it, to make the most of his currents
