Letter From the Publisher Seek the Peace and Prosperity of the City in which I have placed you.

Jeremiah 29:7 .‫ יִ ְהיֶ ה לָ כֶ ם ָשלֹום‬,‫לֹומּה‬ ָ ‫ כִ י ִב ְש‬:‫יְ הוָ ה‬-‫ ֶאל‬,‫ וְ ִה ְת ַפלְ לּו ַבעֲ ָדּה‬,‫ ֲא ֶשר ִהגְ לֵ ִיתי ֶא ְתכֶ ם ָש ָמה‬,‫שלֹום ָהעִ יר‬-‫ת‬ ְ ‫ז וְ ִד ְרׁשּו ֶא‬ ‫יִ ְר ְמיָ הּו‬

“City on a Hill”

“City on the Hill”

The phrase “City on a Hill” taken from Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount, has been used by theologians to describe the calling of the Church since Christ first spoke the words as recorded in the fifth chapter of the Gospel of Matthew.

The phrase has been used continuously in American politics to describe the calling of America to separate itself from the way the rest of the world governs and treats its people.

John F. Kennedy used the phrase when he said, “We must always consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill, the eyes of all people are upon us.”

Ronald Reagan in his farewell speech to the nation: “…I’ve spoken of the shining city all my political life, but I don’t know if I ever quite communicated what I saw when I said it. But in my mind it was a tall, proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace, a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity, and if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here. That’s how I saw it and see it still...”

In 2006, then Senator Barack Obama addressed The University of Massachusetts with his own take on the idea “...But of course, America is an unlikely place - a country built on defiance of the odds; on a belief in the impossible. And I remind you of this because as you set out to live your own stories of success and achievement, it’s now your turn to help keep it this way. It’s your turn to keep this daringly radical but unfailingly simple notion of America alive - that no matter where you’re born or how much your parents have; no matter what you look like or what you believe in, you can still rise to become whatever you want; still go on to achieve great things…”

Presidential candidate, Dr. Ben Carson recently said, “Here’s a nation, one of the founding pillars was freedom of speech and freedom of expression. And yet, we have imposed upon people restrictions on what they can say, on what they can think. And the media is the largest proponent of this, crucifying people who say things really quite innocently.”

In the song “City on the Hill,” recorded by Casting Crowns, the lyrics challenge us to recognize the importance of the individuality and differences that make a community. The success of a city is accomplished only through the appreciation and support of the differences that make up the city.

The City of Memphis is built on the bluffs above the Mississippi River, but it can only truly stand out if we its citizens appreciate each other and what we have. I am grateful that these past several years our city seems to be embracing and enjoying the greatness of our history and unique culture. There is a real sense in our city that we are on the verge of a changing attitude about ourselves. The lyrics from the song below should serve as blueprint for success and warning of how not fail.

Seek the Peace and Prosperity of Memphis!

Did you hear of the city on the hill Said one old man to the other It once shined bright, and it would be shining still But they all started turning on each other You see the poets thought the dancers were shallow And the soldiers thought the poets were weak And the elders saw the young ones as foolish And the rich man never heard the poor man speak But one by one, they ran away With their made up minds to leave it all behind And the light began to fade In the City on the Hill, the City on the Hill Each one thought that they knew better But they were different by design Instead of standing strong together They let their differences divide And one by one, they ran away With their made up minds to leave it all behind And the light began to fade In the City on the Hill, the City on the Hill And the world is searching still But it was the rhythm of the dancers That gave the poets life It was the spirit of the poets That gave the soldiers strength to fight It was fire of the young ones It was the wisdom of the old It was the story of the poor man That needed to be told It is the rhythm of the dancers That gives the poets life It is the spirit of the poets That gives the soldiers strength to fight It is fire of the young ones It is the wisdom of the old It is the story of the poor man That’s needing to be told But one by one will we run away With our made up minds to leave it all behind As the light begins to fade in the City on the Hill

DIVORCE THE RICES WROTE THE BOOK. They really did.

Larry Rice and Nick Rice are co-authors of The Complete Guide to Divorce Practice. Published by the American Bar Association, the book is recognized as the standard reference for divorce lawyers across the nation. The 25th anniversary edition documents over 900 pages of their insight, experience and techniques.

The National Academy of Family Law Attorneys recognized Larry as a Nationally Ranked Top 10 Attorney and Nick as a Nationally Ranked Top 10 Under 40 Attorney.

They were both recognized as The Face of Divorce Law in the Mid-South by Memphis Magazine and are both rated Superb and 10 out of 10 by Avvo.com.

Lawyers seek out Larry’s expertise. He has given over 200 lectures on divorce practice to lawyers nationally and internationally. As the only Super Lawyer in Memphis certified as a Family Law Specialist, Larry spends most of his time practicing law with the Rice Divorce Team.

A third generation lawyer, Nick Rice grew up with the law. After graduating from CBHS and UT-Knoxville, Nick clerked in the family firm while attending The University of Memphis Law School. Nick has lectured on several occasions and was recognized as a Super Lawyer Rising Star.

The Rice Divorce Team is a practice group within Rice, Amundsen & Caperton, PLLC, a firm which was selected as the Best Law Firm by The Commercial Appeal.

The Rice Divorce Team is exclusively committed to family law – from prenuptial agreements to final decrees, from parenting time to property division and everything in-between. The team includes: Larry Rice, Nick Rice, Jennifer Bellott, Erin O’Dea, Jessica Farmer, Tracy Eaton, Andrea Schultz CP, Carla Baker, Susan New ACP, Stacy Pipkin, Cyndy McCrory, Jonathan Wolf, Chelsea Kiss, Ken Schultz, and Sharon Beard.

The team applies generations of experience, nationally recognized expertise, and up-to-date technology to lead their clients through negotiations, mediation, arbitration or litigation. Hundreds of lawyers reviewed, contributed to and helped refine the Rice Divorce Practice System. The depth of The Rice Divorce Team’s personnel provides the ability to tailor representation to each client’s individual needs and goals. While the team is proud of courtroom success, their greatest satisfaction often comes from obtaining a quiet settlement favorable to their client.

Divorce is difficult. Divorce is made worse by misinformation. The Rices’ guide to divorce is available to you at www.aboutdivorce.com.

Rock for Love 9 Levitt Shell Finale Photography by Baxter Buck Rocking across Midtown for the Labor Day weekend, Rock for Love 9 concluded on Sunday night, September 6th at the Levitt Shell. The North Mississippi All-Stars brought out a crowd that packed the lawn. At the pre-concert VIP event, guests sipped the Rocket #9, the Memphis Made beer brewed to just for the Rock for Love festival. In 2016, Rock for Love will mark a decade as community music festival and Church Health Center fundraiser - and we are already counting down to next year!

More 4 the Church Health Center Patients that seek help at the Center are some of our area’s poorest individuals and families.

This fund helps ensure that patients get their daily medications without sacrificing so many of their daily basic necessities. Patients increasingly find themselves torn between separate costs, whether it’s deciding between medications and rent, or between a tank of gas and seeing the doctor. Please consider a monthly, recurring donation to the CHC Gallant Fund. Your donation of $10 each month can make a difference for those in need. Visit churchhealthcenter.org to make a donation.

Keeping Up With

Memphis Jones

by Sandi Butler Hughes | Photography by James Wessels

On a late afternoon, mid-week, we settled into a somewhat quiet two-top in the elevated, lowceilinged VIP section, stage right at B.B. King’s Blues Club. In a bit of serendipity, our Lamar Sorrento table is boldly painted with the word “Memphis” where Memphis Jones and I take our seats. An exuberant performing personality, he is spreading Memphis gospel and music lore to the world in a niche he invented simply being Memphis Jones.

October 2015 / 49

When he slips on his hat and spats and takes the microphone, Memphis Jones is one of the most vocal cheerleaders and frontline promoters for our city. He performs weekly on Beale Street with his band, and they bring a popular blend of trivia and Memphis music - “infotainment” - that is energetic and entertaining. At the tourist hotspots of Hard Rock Cafe and B.B. King’s, Memphis Jones, the man and his band, showcase Memphis music to visitors who come to our music mecca. “I am in the company of people who love music, and they have been saving for years and planning to come all the way from wherever, all the way to Memphis, this little town, with one street in downtown because the music was calling them home. I’m that way too.”

“I love this city,” Memphis continues in a passionate cadence, “I love this city because it’s viewed as an underdog. Nashville kind of jumped out ahead of us as an industry home, LA is LA, New York is New York, and we got this terrible curse in the late ‘60s when Dr. King was murdered here. And I love underdogs.” When he says the word “love,” his baritone voice oozes with a warmth and you know he means it. And he says it often when talking about his work and his city, after all it is his namesake. “I love to encourage underdogs, and it’s just a super-duper added bonus that all these building blocks of modern pop culture all come from Memphis, Tennessee. The looks, the sounds, the vernacular, there is no such thing as ‘cool’ without Memphis, Tennessee.”

It seems that Memphis has been training for this career all his life when he began collecting rock-and-roll trivia at the tender age of six years old, enamoured by the band KISS. His older brother taught him to read before kindergarten, and he would wait on the magazine aisle while his mom grocery shopped, reading about his bands. “I’d be on the magazine aisle reading CREEM, Teen Beat, and Tiger Beat to find out about my bands.

That lead me to the Beatles, and then even before Elvis, that lead me to Carl Perkins.” Music trivia is woven into his casual conversation as easily as it is his stage performances.

“George Harrison’s stage name was ‘Carl Harrison’ because he loved Carl Perkins so much. Ringo Starr said the backbeat of Beatles music was inspired by J.M. Van Eaton’s inability to 50 / 4Memphis

play a shuffle on ‘Great Balls of Fire’ by Jerry Lee Lewis. I came upon this knowledge that my backyard is ground zero as far as the rest world is concerned. If the musical universe has a center, it’s here.”

With his encyclopaedic knowledge of music trivia coupled with his talent on keyboard and guitar, he formed a trio, using his same unique moniker “Memphis Jones” for his band name.

The bass player is Mike Stoker. Friends since they were 12 years old, Mike and Memphis have collected trivia about artists and songs that now is being shared every time they take the stage. Kirk Barkley completes the band behind the drum kit.

All three are independent musician entrepreneurs making a living in the music world of Memphis. Mike works as a luthier, and he and Kirk both work as independent musicians too.

Memphis describes his choice of bandmates as “men with a local footprint and international reach because the people we are really here to entertain are not the locals. They are Scots, and Australians, and from the Far East.”

Like his bandmates, Memphis Jones has crafted other business interests that capitalize on his music knowledge and passions. He leads tours for the Memphis Convention and Visitors Bureau; he runs segments of social media for Tupelo and Tunica, Mississippi, promoting the music heritage of those areas; he works with Graceland posting daily video updates during Elvis Week; he’s the annual host and emcee for the enormous Collingwood Elvis Festival in Collingwood, Ontario; and he serves as the Worship Pastor at The Love of Christ Church. It is his pastoral work that is the heart of all that Memphis does. He plans his touring schedule to be home for church on Sunday morning, and on his website, the “CCM” tab is ironically in the middle of all the other tabs. A click recounts his work in Contemporary Christian Music with pioneer and mentor, the late Dana Key, and reveals another facet of Memphis Jones as artist and “encourager” of people.

As Worship Pastor, he works with the musicians in the flock to develop their excellence, and then sends them out to lead and encourage others beyond the walls of The Love of Christ Church.

A self-described “family man,” Memphis’ wife, Heather, serves as the perfect counter-balance to his rock-and-roll musician persona. They work together as a team, and she helps him with his business as he helps her with family matters to include homeschooling their young children. In addition to working with her own children, Heather is a founder and director of Community, a homeschool tutoring resource (CommunityHomeschoolClasses.com), and both Jones’ are active in the homeschool community. Memphis is quick to point out that he “didn’t fit that system” of the traditional school environment, even making a “D” in music. Instead, he was known around the halls of his alma mater Raleigh-Egypt High School as “Rock Trivia Jones.”

He explains that he is a clown, makes people laugh, and engages and encourages people, but other than that, his says his skill sets are “pretty slim.” But for anyone who has experienced Memphis Jones, he is maximizing that skill set and doing exactly what he has been called to do. “At the end of my two hour show, every single person within earshot is an expert in the lore of Memphis music. That’s my goal is to send out disciples. I’m a disciple-maker who says ‘You gotta go to Memphis! You gotta go to Stax! You gotta go to Graceland!’

You don’t even know why you love that Elvis record until you see his kitchen and realize that he was a human after all.”

On Beale Street, Memphis Jones gets ready to take the stage at B.B. King’s on the iconic street where he is both honored and humbled to play. “I realized that it’s about 1% of my performance, and 99% about making sure that every single heart is overflowing with a love of the music that brought them here. Every song that you know and love has roots that either come to or grow through Beale Street. Beale Street touches every corner of music.” As for Memphis Jones, he opens his show with the familiar bars of a classic Memphis tune and sets about his nightly gig of touching hearts with his own special brand of Memphis.

urkey TROTTERS

In 1998, the day after Thanksgiving, Robert “Punch” Pearson decided to teach his daughters the lost art of being grateful. In modern society, people can sometimes forget to be appreciative. One often hears grumblings about politics, religion, and finances. With trends constantly evolving, keeping up with the Jones’ has become a full-contact sport. Therefore, Punch wanted his girls to not only be thankful for what they have, but to be gracious in honor of how God had blessed them. So that day, he loaded the girls and two friends up and drove downtown to the Cook Convention Center to hand out meals to the less fortunate. That day, Punch had a lightbulb moment. “I want my children and others to truly understand the meaning of Thanksgiving by meeting and helping those less fortunate,” he notoriously said. Years later, his loved ones have immortalized that selfless sentiment in an organization called Turkey Trotters.

56 / 4Memphis

Giving back had always felt good for Punch. However, he had a breakthrough realization that day after Thanksgiving 17 years ago: yes, the people that were lining up to receive food were in need. However, they were able to ask for and go get their meals themselves. What about the family that had someone suffer from a major illness and has taken on major debt from medical expenses? What about the elderly that live alone and get lost in the shuffle? What about the single parent family that scrapes by? In other words, what about the people who really need the help who have not asked for a handout? That group is to whom Punch wanted to minister.

100 volunteers strong: just the way Punch would have it.

Now, Turkey Trotters delivers the same full Thanksgiving meal, in addition to fruit, candy and non-perishables, to approximately 140 families in need in Shelby County.

However, in honoring Punch’s wish to reach those who are truly in need, the families list served by Turkey Trotters is compiled by inquiries to churches, school guidance counselors, and religious ministries. No one on the list is self-nominated. “We even take the names of people suggesting other families that have fallen on a hard time that year. We want to help those who really need the help, not someone who calls and says ‘I need my Thanksgiving turkey again this year,’” says Dennie Rodgers, Punch’s sister and long-time Turkey Trotter.

By Thanksgiving the following year, Punch had rounded up his family and friends as volunteers. Punch worked at Piggly Wiggly as a Butcher Supervisor, so he was able to secure Turkey Trotters needs volunteers and funds in order to food vendors to donate to the cause. The mayor’s office grow. They will meet at 7:30 AM at Sidecar Café for coffee, sent the group a list of 18 families that were in need of a breakfast, and delivery lists. The volunteers will be finshed Thanksgiving meal, so the group went to work on organizing by 10 AM in ample time to enjoy their family Thanksgiving. a turkey, a green bean casserole, dressing, sweet potato Robert “Punch” Pearson However, the early morning volunteer experience is what casserole, rolls, two pies, and soft drinks. The night before makes Turkey Trotters special; Don Pearson, Punch’s father, that Thanksgiving in 1999, ten volunteers met the night before at Flashback Vintage’s parking lot and got their assignments. The next recalls several instances where families are so overwhelmed with gratitude that the morning, the group met at 7 AM at the Piggly Wiggly on Madison, loaded up, and set volunteers are invited into the home to pray with the family. Happy tears are shed, out to feed the families. They dubbed themselves “Turkey Trotters,” and they found because since these families do not nominate themselves, the humble reverence of the situation is overwhelming. Every year the organization gets letters of deep the experience so rewarding that they immediately began to plan for the next year. appreciation and gratitude. And that is why every year, the number of volunteers In 2002, Punch passed away, leaving behind his passion for helping others as double. inspiration to his friends and family. His sudden death served as motivation to continue his legacy. Without Punch’s vendor connections, the group has had to raise A few hours of your time or a few dollars from your wallet can offer hope and funds for food costs. Punch was always the avid golfer, so the Turkey Trotters started happiness to a family in need this Thanksgiving. For all of their dedication to offering a memorial golf tournament, and 100 percent of the proceeds go directly to feeding happiness and thanks to those sometimes overlooked, Turkey Trotters is 4Memphis the families in need. Now, in its 11th year, the Turkey Trotters Golf Tournament (held #MemphisLoveChallenge recipient this month. Think you are #blessed? Then please give back out of gratitude. Visit TurkeyTrotters.com. Your kind support not only allows the first Sunday in October) is dubbed by many as the “most fun golf tournament in town.” Every sponsor, golfer and donor involved in the tournament contributes to the this tradition to continue, but offers a new opportunity for a Thanksgiving tradition cause, and because of the tournament’s success, Turkey Trotters has grown into over of your own.

Operation Red Shoe Comes to Memphis Photography by Mark O. Ramirez Friends of cancer survivor Mckendree Walker welcomed employees of Zappos who came to Memphis to tour St Jude Children’s Research Hospital. The employees had formed a team that won an internal competition to create a video that describes the unique customer relationship Zappos has with its customers. The video became a nationally-aired commercial. The team went on to reach out in a special way to a Zappos customer; Mckendree Walker along with 13 of her friends and family flew to Zappos headquarters for a dinner celebrating the life of former St. Jude patient Luis Aguilar who lost his battle with cancer February 14th, 2015. Operation Red Shoes was launched by this team as way to continue the spirit of Luis who was constant presence of joy and encouragement in the life of his fellow St. Jude patients. Luis’ signature red shoes were a constant in his daily visits to the hospital.

BOOKS

Girl on the Train Paula Hawkins

Reviewed by Kevin Dean, Executive Director, Literacy Mid-South

Despite the flaws and plot holes of Girl on the Train, Paula Hawkins’ debut bestseller, I could not put this book down. I even liked the ending, despite its hokey reliance upon hackneyed plot devices. As other reviews have noted, this book is ripped from the same twisty, fast-paced page as Gone Girl, and the comparisons are many. If you weren’t able to read this book on the beach this summer, Girl on the Train could easily become the quick read on the porch this Fall.

The book is deliciously entertaining despite its misstep in overcomplicating the narrative with plot holes filled with schlocky misdirection.

Girl on the Train is like Hitchcock’s Rear Window set on a London metro rail. Rachel, the Flynnesque main character with a penchant for flagrant self-destruction, spends her mornings taking the train to work, catching glimpses of their mundane lives from their back porches and kitchen windows. After obsessing over a particular cottage and its inhabitants one day, she realizes that not only is an affair taking place, but she might have witnessed a murder, too.

Between bursts of alcoholic fits, the main character inserts herself into the police investigation of the missing and possibly murdered adulterous woman.

While the self destructive patterns of Rachel, the main character, seem tired since Gillian Flynn has cornered the market on female self-hatred, Rachel’s rash curiosity is. How many times have you inserted yourself into a situation, only to have it backfire in your face? (Well, I have, at least.) There are many truly cringeworthy moments when Rachel simply must have one last look. You’ll want to turn the page even though you know uncomfortable moments are inevitable on the next page.

That being said, might I suggest a moratorium on cheap, “gotcha” twists in novels like these, or at least better curveballs that don’t rely so heavily on drunken, unreliable narrators who may or may not have their stories straight? Without spoiling too much, Hawkins didn’t even need to distort the facts to hide a very satisfying twist. The movie has a fantastic ending even without a big reveal, and the narrative trickery she employs to get there is frustrating. While I wouldn’t pass up this book because of a few poorly envisioned red herrings, I won’t be so kind to any future books that follow the same path.

Girl on the Train will become a movie in 2016 starring Emily Blunt, Haley Bennett, and Mission Impossible vixen Rebecca Ferguson. The hardback is still available at Booksellers at Laurelwood.

The Association of Women Attorneys enjoyed an after-hours mixer at Heather Boutique & Spa. The AWA members sipped and shopped during the girl’s night out.

Heather and her knowledgeable staff were on hand to give makeup tips and mini blow outs. It was fun night for relaxing and pampering for these hard working ladies!

Paragon Bank Art Reception On August 27, Paragon Bank hosted an art reception for Memphis Oral School for the Deaf (MOSD) at its Saddle Creek Banking Center. This is the second year Paragon has hosted artwork from this particular school. The bank has hosted student artwork from a different school each month since the location in Saddle Creek opened.

This was the first reception Paragon has held for MOSD and for elementary student artists. The artwork consists of butterflies and caterpillars, which reflect a MOSD tradition of releasing butterflies on the graduation of their preschoolers transitioning to other elementary schools.

Robert Shaw (CEO), Abby Meister (MOSD teacher), Jon Roskos (Saddle Creek Banking Center Manager), Carol Kirby (MOSD Development Director), Haley Overcast (Marketing Manager), Martin Wade (MOSD student), Sue Montgomery (MOSD teacher), Ginger Ragan (Development Associate), Susie Harlan (MOSD Teacher), Mark Winburne (Wealth Advisor)

Paragon Bank visited Memphis Child Advocacy Center (MCAC) on Monday, August 24, during which they received a tour of the facility and learned how the organization serves children in the community. The group then helped prepare for MCAC’s upcoming Works of Heart Gala, which consisted of wrapping wooden hearts that will be decorated by local artists, and then auctioned off. This was the bank’s latest “10 ACTS of Kindness” event.
