March 11, 2022 - Good Morning!  It’s Friday, March 11.

This Sunday at First Baptist, Center, we'll begin our service by celebrating the royalty of our Heavenly Father. Our worship center will be filled with the sounds of songs like "Lead On, O King Eternal" and "Crown Him With Many Crowns" and "Sing to the King". We serve a majestic God!

Royalty isn't something you work your way into, isn't a position you can earn. Royalty is a birthright.  And so, as children of God, we are "born again" into His royal family.

March 9, 2022 - On March 9, 1890, Vyacheslav Molotov was born in Russia. Good luck pronouncing his first name, but I'll bet you didn't have as much trouble with his last name... because of the homemade bomb called the "Molotov cocktail." When the communists came to power in Russia in 1917, Molotov began to rise through the ranks of the new government, finally becoming foreign minister, second only to Joseph Stalin. 

March 8, 2022 - I can recall my parents, Alice and Cecil, talking about someone being “dirt-poor”.  At the time I did not think much about the saying.  Now that I am old I look back at this saying and wonder about its true meaning.

March 7, 2022 - I would like to thank everyone for their kindness as I ran for County Judge. Words cannot express the gratitude for those who assisted me in the race. I wish the best for our County Judge and Shelby County. Many challenges lie ahead and it will take all of us working together to accomplish the goals our county leadership has established. To accomplish these goals we must be selfless and serve everyone, open, fair and willing to serve.
