Talk About God (part 2)

Will’s burns turned out to be minor. Nothing the nurse couldn’t sooth with ointments and creams. But I was still getting nowhere with my conversations about God. It wasn’t that I was useless at this church camp. I wrote a couple of skits the campers seemed to like. One featured God as a guest on [...]

For the last 16 years I’ve spent one week each summer as a Cabin Dad at the Episcopal Church Camp in Way, Mississippi. A Camp called Bratton Green. I was first asked to attend the camp in 1995. The rather handsome young priest who extended the invitation asked if I would serve as a cabin [...]

Julius Caesar’s Favorite Roman Wine: Still Around?

The Chickasaw –– Spartans of the Mississippi Valley

By: Jack Mayfield
