Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 Playlist

When listening to soundtracks, I frequently like to listen to the tracks chronologically (i.e. in the order they were used in the film). So I thought I’d share that playlist-like order for “Guardians Of The Galaxy Vol. 2: Awesome Mix Vol. 2“. I’ve also tried to provide spoiler-free alternate titles for the scenes that go with song. Enjoy! “Brandy You’re a Fine Girl” – Looking Glass Prologue “Mr. Blue Sky” – Electric Light Orchestra Defending the batteries “Lake Shore Drive” – Aliotta Haynes Jeremiah Leaving the Sovereign “The Chain” – Fleetwood Mac Leaving with Ego “Southern Nights” – Glen Campbell Rocket on the prowl “My Sweet Lord” – George Harrison Ego’s planet “Come a Little Bit Closer” – Jay and the Americans Yondu’s escape “Bring it On Home to Me” – Sam Cooke This unspoken thing between us “Brandy You’re a Fine Girl” (Reprise) Ego consoles Peter “Wham Bang Shang-A-Lang” … Continue reading →

Paul Jon Matthew 11:4-6 Mark 6:14-29 Jesus does that remez thing where he quotes Old Testament Isaiah You are blessed when you are not bitter because of me Left off “to proclaim freedom from the captives and freedom from darkness for the prisoner” In other words yes, but your expectations are off You’re also not going to get out of prison and your life will not end well Have to constantly struggle with how to respond That bitter sting that you feel Deut 32:48-52 40 years of doing the right thing with very few slip and because of one of them, you can’t enter the promised land King David, a man after God’s own heart A lot of passion for sin as well (he was REALLY good at it) Deep passion/dream to build a temple for God, but no, I’m going to give it to your son Blessed when you … Continue reading →

Paul Jon Looking at Phillipians 4 Next week Paul’s got a friend coming in from his Gospel signing days Week after that, Maria and I will be talking about contentment V4-14 Be glad in the Lord always! Again I say, be glad! Let your gentleness show in your treatment of all people. The Lord is near. Don’t be anxious about anything; rather, bring up all of your requests to God in your prayers and petitions, along with giving thanks. Then the peace of God that exceeds all understanding will keep your hearts and minds safe in Christ Jesus. From now on, brothers and sisters, if anything is excellent and if anything is admirable, focus your thoughts on these things: all that is true, all that is holy, all that is just, all that is pure, all that is lovely, and all that is worthy of praise. Practice these things: whatever … Continue reading →

Paul So I came here tonight with a list of songs to do, but then I started playing them and it felt weirdo until I got to the one hymn I had on the list So then I set it as “no song under 50 years old” night Charlie Matt and I have both participated with VBS previously This year we are fully signed up with kids We still need some more volunteers (10 more) Even a one day volunteership would be a blessing Wednesday the 11th especially Matt I volunteered and then got asked to be in the skits – I was Chef Pierre So then I could have chilled or do what Katie wanted and wander around in character The kids loved it so much that when I went on break, the kids threw a fit when I wasn’t there to give them snack and put on paper … Continue reading →
