Two many minis?
Some things go best unsaid. We were in the process of moving a few years back when one of the movers came in and announced to my wife and I that he had finished packing up all the stuff in the garage. That was nice. “Say, did you know you had 27 rods and reels?“, … Continue reading

Fishing report ( kind of )
There was something strange on the lake Saturday: Boats. Then Sunday, they pretty much disappeared again. And it wasn’t because everybody went home to watch the Super Bowl.

Union Parish is one of the top two parishes in the state for deer hunting and this season did not disappoint. In fact, the busiest folks … Continue reading
Silent sermon
Some of the most eye-opening sermons and lessons in life don’t involve a word. Here’s an example shared with me recently: A member of the church who previously had been attending services regularly stopped going. After a few weeks, the pastor decided to visit. The pastor found the man at home alone, sitting before a … Continue reading
Spreading the Gospel
God uses many people in many different ways to spread the gospel. This was on Facebook this week and I thought it was worth sharing.
