Share It’s a New Thing By Tammy Parrish / yesterday Ouch! It’s the New Thing Behold, I will do a new thing. Wow, what a statement. What excitement it brings, until it comes via the form of adversity.

Share Grammie, What A Lifesaver! By Pauline Berger / a couple of days ago I scooted to the edge of my pew, I was trying to catch her eye.

Share The Process of Giving Birth By Sheri Boulet / a few days ago As a Labor and Delivery nurse I don’t often get to see the stages of labor played out before my eyes anymore since most of our patients opt to have an epidural which allows them to be in relative comfort for the most part until the birth. But the other night I had a beautiful […]
Share Nothing Stops Them Like a Browning By David Underwood / 5 days ago Recently my John Deere tractor would not start. It had totally quit running. There is nothing worse than seeing such a fine piece of farm equipment that bears such a fine name to sit there idle and not work.

It is said that Cain went out from the presence of the Lord and […]
Share If the River Leaves You, You Die By scott phillips / a couple of weeks ago If the river leaves you, you die. At one time, Rodney, Mississippi was the largest port between New Orleans and St. Louis. You would never know it today because there are only a few reminders of a past of greatness. It is actually called a “Ghost” town because it has been forgotten and left by […]
Share It’s Your Choice By Sheri Boulet / a couple of weeks ago Several years ago I was in a situation where someone I was very close to was constantly miserable.

Share God Wants You To Love Yourself By Carol Clemans / a couple of weeks ago Did you know God wants you to love you? You might want to argue with me and say, “No, we are supposed to be humble.
