On the Farm we never wanted to run out of seed… never. But we also didn’t want to buy too much seed because we did not have a temperature-controlled storage. One afternoon dad sent one of the men to Alice-Sidney Dryer & Seed Co in Dermott, Arkansas to get a pickup truck load of rice …

God School: Sometimes You Have To Pop the Clutch
In the summer of 1965, my folks gave me a blue Volkswagen (Bug). I loved that car. It was so much fun to drive. It was a simple car. It came with an AM radio and air conditioning. Everything else was manual…that included the transmission. I didn’t need jumper cables when the car would not …

Law Of The Farm: The Harvest?
Jesus had much to say about the Law of the Farm. He spoke about sowing, fig trees, the root, the vine, unproductive plants, the seed, shepherd caring & his sheep, and, of course, the mustard seed. Paul spoke of the Fruit of the Spirit. In fact, all through the Bible you will find the Law …
God School: It’s Personal…
I remember mail calls when I was in the Air Force. When my name was called, I jumped up to grab the letter. The first thing I looked for was the return address. Nothing was more important at the moment, Nothing! Love letters are personal. If you don’t know the person writing, then it doesn’t …
Law of the Farm: The Secret Is In The Seed
This is a rice seed. It came from a field where my grandpa raised rice in the 1940’s. It’s pretty small but God uses the least likely to teach His Principles. These Principles are timeless. It’s called Wisdom. Do you find yourself working harder & longer for less? Do you find it harder & harder …

God School?
Several years ago, God gave me the concept of “God School.” What followed was a process that has helped me understand life. God School is composed of The Bible, Classroom Lectures, Study and Life-Lab. I believe Followers of Christ are enrolled in God School when they are “Born Again” (John 3:3,7). 1. The “Textbook” is …
They Found The Answer In The Ground
Mark 4: 26-29 “He also said, “This is what the kingdom of God is like. A man scatters seed on the ground. Night and day, whether he sleeps or gets up, the seed sprouts and grows, though he does not know how. All by itself the soil produces grain—first the stalk, then the head, then …
It’s Got Your Name On It!
You get up early to walk along the beach. It’s just you and your thoughts. The crashing of the waves, sand between your toes, sea birds searching for breakfast and the beautiful sunrise all stir your heart. Up ahead you see something sparkling on the shore.
