A young and talented 13-year-old pianist has got a gig playing for passengers as they pass through the Charlotte Douglas International Airport. And while he plays, people can be seen rocking along to his music in chairs nearby, taking pictures and videos of him while they stand and watch, or even dancing along to the music in the main concourse. He is definitely a crowd pleaser!
Evan Brezicki, who lives in Mooresville, NC with his parents and older brother, has eight years of piano training and is one of Charlotte’s most talented young pianists. He volunteers his time, once a week, to share his talent with people in the airport. And with the Charlotte airport being the sixth busiest airport in the country and the seventh worldwide, many people have been blessed to hear Evan play.
“I’m here to brighten people’s days, I guess,” Evan says with a smile. The talented musician has a wide variety of songs on his play list, most of which he plays from memory. His fingers move up and down the keys while songs from so many different artists, like Billy Joel, Beethoven, Queen, or Adele come out from the piano.
“He’s always a crowd stopper,” says Charles Tabor, who is the airport’s exhibit coordinator that oversees the volunteer piano program. “He plays, and everybody stops to watch.”
But Charles admits that he wasn’t so sure about Evan playing in the airport at first, because of his young age. “When I brought him on, I was kind of skeptical because he’s so young. But after hearing his music, I decided that, not only is he a good player, but he can be an inspiration to all kids that are coming through the airport.”
Some of the travelers that hear Evan play even leave him notes of appreciation. “Most of the notes that people give me are like, ‘Thank you so much. You’ve taken the stress off of traveling,” Evan says. “I think that’s mostly what people feel.”
He even gets tips sometimes from people passing by, which he is saving up for his college education. And Evan says that if he ends up going to college nearby, he’d like to continue doing his gig at the airport.
What a talented young man who is using his gift to bring joy to others! May he continue to do what he loves and bless those around him with his music.
This is my story of God's grace and healing. In this video, I share my childhood story of growing up in a physically and sexually abusive situation. I talk about the emotional trauma and living with PTSD for almost 50 years before really starting the healing process with a Christian therapist.
As a child, I believed the lies of my abusers. I believed I was worthless, stupid, and bound for failure, but that wasn't true, and it surely wasn't what God intended for my life. Shame and guilty became the burdens I carried as I kept the darkest of secrets. Trusting others was almost impossible, but God in His gentleness guided me right where I needed to be in order to learn how to trust.
This video is part 1 and in part 2 I sit down with my Christian counselor for a Q&A session about the healing process in connection with my faith in Christ. Downloads of this video and part two can be found on the resource page at www.christcenteredsolutions.org
Elderly residents at The Oaks At Northpointe were in for a treat when they recently had the chance to enjoy a Slip N Slide.
This Zanesville, Ohio assisted living facility is not your average senior living community. On their Facebook page, The Oaks is known for “no long, barren hallways or depressing décor.
Instead, our rooms are filled with warmth, the smell of home cooked food, and friendly people who never pass up an opportunity to say hello.” Another noteworthy feature of the community is their Senior Health and Wellness Day.
On this particular sunny day, the residents experienced a throwback to their youth as staff prepared a Slip N Slide outside. Many of us have taken our own rides on this popular summer staple which features a long, slick mat that is covered with water.
Some people will slide down using just their bodies, but these residents were set up on a special float that allowed them to be safely strapped in. Then, two staff remembers guided the float down the slide at a controlled speed.
As we watch this resident take her turn on the attraction, you can see the huge smile spread across her face. Just because we grow older does not mean that we cannot experience the joys and wonders from our youth.
It’s so incredible to see this assisted living facility work so hard to make sure that their residents are happy, healthy and full of life. Other people are taking notice too. In fact, this clip has over 7 million views across social media and the number is still climbing.
This is just another example that age is just a number.

In the circle
The circle of life”

High school classmates help organize a senior dance for a sick classmate battling cancer.
19-year-old Ilijah Barron is a senior at Liverpool High School in upstate New York. Two years ago, he was a normal student and even played on the varsity football time. But all of that changed when Ilijah started to notice a pain in his legs.
After multiple tests, doctors found a tumor in the young man’s leg. Ilijah was diagnosed with a bone cancer called osteosarcoma. His entire life changed. Before his diagnosis, Ilijah was planning on going to the annual senior prom.
Unfortunately, he found himself in the hospital two days before the ball. That’s when his mother came up with the idea to bring the dance to her son. Along with a group of classmates and hospital workers, Ilijah’s mother transformed the 11th floor of the Upstate Golisano Children’s Hospital into a beautiful dance.
There was music, a photo booth and even a catered dinner. The students donned their tuxes and gowns to help Ilijah celebrate his senior prom in an amazing way. The incredible surprise touched this young man and even brought on a few tears.
Shortly after the hospital prom, Ilijah stood up and walked across the stage to receive his high school diploma. This inspiring young man isn’t letting his cancer keep him down and it’s such an incredible moment to witness.
It’s such a blessing to know that Illijah has an amazing support system behind him. We will continue to pray for Ilijah and his entire family as they face this battle.

The talented trio of I’m With Her perform a bluegrass medley of classic hits on Live From Here.
These three singer-songwriters have been touring the world for years, sharing their unique sound and performance. Their website describes the group performing saying, “Since forming in 2014, Sara Watkins, Sarah Jarosz, and Aoife O’Donovan have imbued their songs with a sharply detailed lyricism, graceful musicianship, and—perhaps most powerfully—mesmerizing harmonies that endlessly reflect their extraordinary chemistry.”
Today, I’m With Her is at Live From Here for an incredible performance the bluegrass hits ‘Toy Heart,’ ‘Marry Me,’ and ‘Don’t You Hear Jerusalem Moan?’ The women start off singing completely a cappella and the sound flows all through the theater.
“You played with my poor heart like a toy
That toy broke and then we had to part
It never can be mended
I hope this romance's ended
Darling, you toyed with a toy heart”
After the first verse, I’m With Her pick up their instruments and start to play along. These bluegrass songs are a favorite by many and it’s so incredible to hear them played in such a unique way. By the time the women reach the final song in their mashup, the crowd was already totally invested.
“Don't you hear Jerusalem moan?
Don't you hear Jerusalem moan?
Thank God there's a heaven and a ringing in my soul and my soul's got free
Don't you hear Jerusalem moan?”
I easily could’ve listened to 5 more songs from this talented trio. Who else is hoping to hear more from I’m With Her in the future?
