Summary

Hi all! Today is another solo episode, and I’m diving into one of my favorite topics—light. I’m sharing how my approach to lighting has changed since the early days of playing it safe with backlight and open shade, and why I now lean into the boldness of direct sun, deep shadows, and flash. This topic has really been on my mind lately, and I hope you enjoy listening along!   Want to try the best CRM out there?

Hoosier Schoolmaster, The by Edward Eggleston (1837 - 1902) LibriVox "Want to be a school-master, do you? You? Well, what would you do in Flat Crick deestrick, I'd like to know? Why, the boys have driv off the last two, and licked the one afore them like blazes. You might teach a summer school, when nothin' but children come. But I 'low it takes a right smart man to be school-master in Flat Crick in the winter. They'd pitch you out of doors, sonny, neck and heels, afore Christmas."

In these lectures, Warfield distinguishes between different conceptions of salvation: naturalistic vs. supernaturalistic, sacerdotal vs. evangelical, universalistic vs. particularistic which act as a kind of flow chart shwoing what is known in theology as 'the order of decrees'.
