Retired scholar Martin Marty shaped American religion
Leading religious scholar Martin E Marty, long a Chicago professor and author of about 50 books, retired from the University of Chicago. He advised presidents, engaged in public ethics work, and reflected on faith, community, and social inequities while recalling a career spanning over five decades. He founded a health faith center, endured personal loss, and urges focus on community loyalties and service rather than only belief.

Inner Groove rises on faith with radio show and debut
Blair Frederius, former vice president, finds a new path in Christian rock. After prayer and a fateful meeting with Rebecca St James, his band Inner Groove grew from a duo to a six piece act. The group hosts a weekly radio program on WVOA FM in East Syracuse and aims to reach both believers and the unchurched while promoting independent Christian music. The band has earned early success, finishing third in a LeMoyne College battle of the bands and garnering positive listener feedback.

They promote faith driven lyrics and a web site to announce gigs while seeking venues for non major label artists.

Frodelus describes a journey of faith guiding musical calling and doorways opening for performances.
