A Lesson In Romantics Zip

When filing the paperwork to finalize the adoption for Manny we had the option to legally change his name. While praying about what to change it to, the name Nathan came to our hearts. In Hebrew, that name means, “A Gift From God.” We knew right away that our son’s name was to be changed to Nathan and that he really is our gift from God. (His legal first name is Nathan and we moved his former first name, Manuel, to his middle name. He goes by Nathan in a formal setting but Manny is our nickname for him)

After the adoption was finalized Manny still had to deal with the many emotions that come along with finalization. He was still very angry about the hurt that was caused by his birth mom and how his life felt so different from the other children around him.

A Lesson In Romantics. Release Date: 2007 Tracklist. Review Summary: A Lesson In Romantics is like most pop-punk. It's just a hell of a lot better. Once you accept a single, underlying premise, pop-punk music becomes a lot easier to understand and appreciate: most pop-punk bands aren’t trying to change music, let. A Lesson in Romance: Directed by Ron Oliver. With Kristy Swanson, Scott Grimes, Tessie Santiago, Allie Gonino. When twins attend university, their parents join them too.

One day I was listening to Manny while he shared his hurt with me. He looked up at me and asked, “Why did you name me Nathan?” I reminded him that Nathan means “a gift from God” and how we feel that he is our forever gift that God entrusted us with.

Through tears, my son looked at me and said, “I don’t feel like a gift.” I’ve never felt the sense of rejection on someone as much as I did at that moment. I saw how defeated he looked, how his past made him feel less than, how his mother mistreated him which caused all of his struggles, and how she rejected him by choosing her selfish desires over him.

Psalm 27:10 says, “Though my father and mother forsake me, the LORD will receive me.

Rejection is a real, deep, and an isolating feeling. Rejection will make you think you’re not worthy, alone, and unwanted. Rejection will tell you that no matter how hard you try you don’t deserve acceptance. The feelings of rejection can be triggered in an instant and take way longer to subside.

Just like my son, I’m sure you’ve experienced rejection too. You may not have felt it for the same reasons as him, but maybe you have through your relationships, friendships, or career. Those times of rejection can be confusing and sometimes unmerited and if you’re not careful you can allow those feelings of rejection turn into defeat. When this happens you can be tempted to live a defeated life and those moments of rejection are no longer just moments; they’re a lifestyle.

The 4 Positive Lessons You Can Learn From Rejection

1. Rejection Shines A Light On Your Source: When you walk through a season of rejection, no matter what type it is, rejection will always shine a light on your foundation. It will show if you place your worth in your romantic relationship. It will show if your value is based on the words and actions of your family or friendships. It will even show your career being the supplier of your confidence. When Christ is not your source and firm foundation- rejection will crack your foundation to the core. When you look towards people, positions, and materials to feel love and acceptance, it will never fulfill or satisfy your spirit until you know Who your source of acceptance is from.

Ephesians 3:18-19 says, “And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.”

2. Rejection Has A Name And They Need Prayed For:Whoever is behind the reason your rejection, they’re a person and they need to be prayed for too. You may have experience rejection due to selfishness, a difference of opinion, judgment, or because someone was more qualified. Your rejection may have been unmerited or simply because someone didn’t feel the same way towards you as you do towards them. Whatever the reason is behind the rejection doesn’t change how you should pray for them. Pray for the family member who doesn’t accept you. Pray for the organization who passed you up for a position. Pray for the person who walked away from a romantic relationship with you. When you pray, lift them up. Pray for their success and their relationship with Christ. Praying for the person behind the rejection will heal your hurt and walk in freedom.

Matthew 5:44 says, “But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you…”

3. Rejection Is Not God Showing Favoritism: It’s common to wonder why God continues to allow rejection to happen and to question it. It’s easy to start the game of comparison and see other’s acceptance as God’s way of favoring them. Scripture is clear that God does not show favoritism. We serve a God who allows free will which when used incorrectly by others it can bring a lot of hurt and pain. However, we serve a God who uses it for good every single time (Romans 8:28). Don’t get stuck in questioning God on the “why’s.” Allow Him to use these feelings of rejection to strengthen your trust in Him. Allow Him to give you a heart and compassion towards others who’ve experienced deep hurt from rejection and to use your story to encourage them. Allow Him to create a sensitive heart within you and to teach you to carefully not reject others.

Romans 2:11 says, “For God does not show favoritism”

4. Rejection Could Actually Be Protection: When you’re praying for the will of God over your life and wanting direction, it’s inevitable that you’re going to hear “no’s.” A door closing, whether it’s to a relationship or an opportunity- if you’re trusting God to guide your steps you must also trust when He closes a door and take it as protection and not rejection. James and I were facing a huge door closing a few years ago and we saw it closing from afar and the entire time I heard God say, “I’m doing this to protect you.” It was still frustrating and still hurt, but there was a peace knowing we were protected. Asking God for understanding and discernment will help you decipher between rejection versus protection.

Proverbs 2:11 says, “Discretion will watch over you, understanding and discernment will guard you.”

If you’ve recently gone through a season of rejection I want to encourage you:

Be encouraged as you press into Christ and stand firm knowing He is your firm foundation and you will not be shaken. Be encouraged as you pray scripture over your hurt and disappointment and allow Christ to bring the good out. Be encouraged that while there is no favoritism in Christ you can carry His favor into all that you do so you’re work will be blessed and multiply.

A I Get Home Your [sic] So Dead[edit]

The title of this song is actually spelled wrong, but it is the official spelling. It should be this way in the article. Doppelganger 01:43, 31 August 2007 (UTC)

NOT SOURCED[edit]

Where is the source for the following information:


Since Lancaster sings along with Sanders for the majority of the song, Sanders lip syncs Lancaster's parts and sings his own as well. Prior to the release of 'When I Get Home, You're So Dead', the band used a live video to promote 'Black Cat', which was believed to be the first single.The video to this song is the second in the asset of group (taking into account the live video for the song 'Black Cat').

The video is a mix of several situations which happened with the band (the prison, concert, and also the house of the singer - Derek Sanders while his girlfriend is kissing a paramour). Also is shown detention of the participants by the police for theft.

'Jamie All Over'- This song is a re-recording of the Kid Named Chicago, Lancaster, Garcia, and Bundrick's previous band's song with the same name. The video for the second single was shot on May 6 in New York and started playing on MTV2, MTVu, and MTV hits on July 21, 2008. Bassist Jeremy Lenzo lip syncs to Jason Lancaster's parts in the video. The final closing verse is sung by Daniel Lancaster of Stages & Stereos, brother of Jason Lancaster. Derek Sanders lip syncs this verse in the music video.The video shows the band playing on the stage in some casino. The song is at the same time performed by both vocalists - Derek Sanders and Jeremy Lent. At the same time, guitarists and drummer play roulette and slots. Later joined Derek Sanders surrounded by women. After that, each member of the group in turn wins at the casino. In the last seconds of the video Sanders falls at the floor and then wakes up, holding the chip in a hand.

Lesson

'Miserable at Best' - The video for the third single, 'Miserable at Best', was released on January 9 on the band's Myspace. In the video, drummer Jake Bundrick lip syncs to Jason Lancaster's verses. The video excludes the song's bridge. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 152.216.11.5 (talk) 12:26, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

This is my first take at it to knock out the quick items. So far you just need to fix the dead link, I'll get to the rest of the review in the next couple days. Placeholders are question marks, - marks (thus far) are things you can improve very quickly and will not hold up the GA status of this article, and + items you have successfully completed.

Miscellaneous Cleanup

  • 'When I Get Home, You're So Dead' – 3:13 should be 'When I Get Home, You're So Dead' – 3:13 according to to three separate sources I looked at. Please verify and make change if necessary.
Comment. Are the typesettings for this song the same on the EP Tales Told By Dead Friends and A Lesson in Romantics? Like on the physical copies? If so, we need to use whatever that setting is, no matter what other sources say. But if they're different, then I'll go ahead and use the sources. Which sources are these, by the way? dannymusiceditorwhat'd I do now? 14:38, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
Just checked both Tales Told and Romantics - they list it with the comma. Yeepsi (talk) 14:46, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
  • Fix up these sentences
    • A Lesson in Romantics was recorded in early 2007 produced by Zack Odom and Kenneth Mount.
    • The band then went on the 2008 edition of Warped Tour.
    • Mayday Parade went on the 2007 edition of Warped Tour,[21] and following this, A Lesson in Romantics was released on July 10 through Fearless Records.
    • In June 2006 the band released an EP, Tales Told by Dead Friends, which they sold to people attending Warped Tour; it eventually sold 10,000 copies. (when I read this the first time, I thought they sold it because they were playing at Warped Tour that year)

I think I'm Done with these, but if you've got a better idea for the EP change let me know. dannymusiceditorwhat'd I do now? 14:38, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

I also can't find a source for a 2008 reissue.

The liner notes are a testament to the fact that this exists. dannymusiceditorwhat'd I do now? 14:38, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
I've just found this[1] with what I presume to be the release date (25 April 2008) for the reissue but I'm not sure if it's an RS? Yeepsi (talk) 14:56, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
@Yeepsi: Per WP:QUESTIONED, I wouldn't use that for a date. If it were used to prove that it existed, that's another story, but I wouldn't use it for when it came out. dannymusiceditorwhat'd I do now? 15:14, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
Fair enough. I've found this review from The Skinny[2] that has 'Release Date: 28 Apr' at the bottom. Yeepsi (talk) 15:36, 18 May 2016 (UTC)
I've added this reference in as a footnote. dannymusiceditorSpeak up! 18:56, 19 May 2016 (UTC)

After these (very, very minor) issues are addressed, I'll go ahead and approve for GA. If you don't agree with any of my assessments, just let me know, I'm fairly reasonable.

This is also my first GA assessment, and I tried to follow the guideline the best that I could, but if you have any feedback for my review compared to your other reviews it would be much appreciated as well. Thanks!Kees08 (talk) 05:43, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

Done - 'When I Get Home, You're So Dead' is listed on the album sleeve with the comma. Yeepsi (talk) 14:38, 18 May 2016 (UTC)

Congratulations! Everything looks great. Promoting article to GA status Kees08 (talk) 05:53, 20 May 2016 (UTC)
