His travels are recorded in the names of the various books of the New Testament, his letters of commission and instruction to the various churches he founded. Undaunted Paul goes out among all various and sundry folks spreading the word. Peter was caught between a rock and a hard place on the issue. Others of the early Christians wanted to do the work of evangelizing strictly amongst the Jews. Paul before Peter took the commandment seriously about the new faith being universal. He becomes their champion and their most eloquent spokesperson. The bolt of lightning that knocked him off his ride and blinded him and his later restoration to sight changed him 180 degrees.

It's a modern, simple, and very approachable music/audio player that doesn't try to appear something more than it is.Without the contributions of Peter and Paul to the early Christian church it might very well have gone on to be an obscure offshoot of Judaism and Jesus might have died a lonely and forgotten death. While not exactly something worthy of writing home about in terms of both features and looks, Museeks gets the job done. In short, it can prevent your computer from going to sleep while listening to music. the last noteworthy feature is the fact that Museeks can also override your system's sleep options. Interestingly enough, the app does provide support for shuffle and loop, playlist import and export (.m3u), as well as a decent queue management system. It doesn't have advanced features (equalizers, and other similar tools), even though you are provided with a few options when it comes to tweaking the play rate (playback speed control) and the GUI (dark theme, status bar integration, default view, and so forth).

Museeks is not what one might call an advanced player. The three main sections of the app are Library, Playlists, and Settings, all accessible from the lower-left corner of the main window. Its GUI is clean and polished, without going over the top when it comes to design.Īll this means that no matter who you are, you'll be able to access the app's main features with ease. All about simplicityĮven from the first couple of seconds of using Museeks, it's quite clear that this is an app designed to be very approachable. It's built using Node.js, Electron, and React.js, and has pretty much all the basic features one can expect from such a tool. Museeks is a modern, cross-platform, and open-source audio player. Be that as it may, that's not to say that "classic" players are useless, and having a good one can definitely make the whole music listening experience better. In today's world of streaming services, local audio/music players are somewhat of a dying breed.
