In the end

Matthew 7:13-14 13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.  

Two perchin weekends…

Yaw Yaw Yaw Fishbaws!

It’s LSU – Bama week, and we can’t let it pass without our fifth annual version of the fish fight between the two SEC West powerhouses. *** *** *** There’s a boatload of reasons coaching LSU means a lot to Louisiana’s own Ed Orgeron.

Something to think about

Okay, that’s not our regular Sunday Scripture verse, so what’s it doing here?
