What If You Had Never Heard? by JohnBagwell
Jul 07, 2012 |
As I mentioned last week, I took my daughter with me on the J.S.U. campus because I wanted to show her how easy it could be to walk up to total strangers, have a conversation about salvation, and walk away without embarrassment, confrontation, or hurt feelings for anyone involved.

Could you have done it? by JohnBagwell
Jul 02, 2012 |
Last week I talked a little bit about 2 questions I went around asking people, and said I would publish the results of those conversations this week, but before I do, I wanted to ask you if you could have named 10 brands of beer, or if you could have named the 10 Commandments. For those of you... | 33 | 
Trying Times for Gardeners by SherryBlantonJul 01, 2012 |
These are hard days for gardeners. We have talked about the heat to everyone we meet and we are suffering through it as I write these words. I can’t remember days of continual 100 plus temperatures, This kind of heat probably has happened in other years, but, like many other bad memories, I have... | 10 |

The VBS That Changed My Life by JanCase

The memory bank of most Southerners has a file for Vacation Bible School.

Music by BrianRobinson

Every family has good days and bad days in life. Some of them will be known by a kind of memory jogger - that day we saw the deer, that night when the car died, that great dinner we had that one time and (for those of you with newborns or, like us, kids who fight sleep and cats who wake ear... | 9 |
Conversation for Starters by JohnBagwell
Jun 23, 2012 |
Had a conversation with a co-worker on Friday a few hours before the day was over. I simply asked a question and now I'll ask it to you: Can you name at least 10 separate brands of beer?
