Times are changing. Knowing how much they have changed proves hard without an unmovable point of reference. Today, we will measure against the 1950's in Birmingham, Alabama. Phillip's dad, Larry, grew up during that time and tells us from stories from his childhood. Our other guest is Ford, who has been our friend and running-buddy for a long time. The show is slam-full of stories that we hope you enjoy.

Focusing on why we shouldn't be able to accomplish a goal in life can be a detriment to ever accomplishing the desires of our hearts. Brylan Miller's story is a great encouragement for anyone who is currently being held back by their own thoughts and perceived weaknesses. Brylan lives with a condition called cerebral palsy, but he did not let it stand in the way to fulfilling what he was called to do--Bull Riding. Prepare to be encouraged and motivated by his story. We hope you enjoy it!

Good stories can be told from anywhere, but some of the best I have heard have been reborn in a hunting cabin. Step inside a rustic cabin off the main by-ways and next to a quaint pond. We traveled to Philadelphia, Mississippi for a storytelling this week and are sure proud that we did. From haints (haunts) to fishing and even some hunting, this episode will keep you entertained and tickled. We hope you enjoy every story.

Remember elementary school? Those simple days of lunch boxes, recess, and number two pencils... We've got a delightful new episode that'll transport you right back to your childhood classroom. Join us as Mrs. Parker shares her favorite heartwarming and humorous stories from her years in education - from school bus adventures to unforgettable student moments.

As she reminisces, Shane and I found ourselves chiming in with our own forgotten memories, each story sparking another. Before we knew it, we were all laughing and sharing tales we hadn't thought about in years.

This episode is perfect for:

- Anyone who's ever sat in a tiny desk

- Anyone who has ridden the school bus

- Former students who became teachers

- Those who love a good dose of nostalgia

Take a break from adult life and join us for some lighthearted storytelling. We bet you'll find yourself smiling, remembering your own school day adventures, and maybe even reconnecting with some cherished memories you hadn't visited in a while.

Humans have a knack for getting themselves into tough situations, and I've certainly had my share of them. Today, you'll hear an incredible story of deliverance and redemption. From a hospital in Decatur, Alabama, to the heart of Mexico, and ending in the rugged Bankhead National Forest, this tale is a wild ride filled with highs and lows. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

If anyone has told you that you aren't supposed to laugh, then they have told you wrong. And if we are wrong about laughing, then we are real wrong. Sit back and get ready to get tickled.

We all grew up in the country and had a lot of fun doing it. One story after the next, we recall some of our most humorous events. We hope that you find them relatable and enjoyable to hear. Thank you for spending some time with us this week.

Job, in the Bible, lived out some horrifying years which are difficult to read, much less think of living. Jeremy Powell did not experience the exact trials of Job, but he absolutely faced some of the most trying times that I have ever heard. Do not worry, this episode is not all tragedy; we lighten it up and have some good laughs along the way. Jeremy learned a valuable lesson that everyone could benefit from hearing, and he shares after detailing his story. We hope that you are blessed and encouraged by this story--I know Shane and I were. Thanks for watching! Please share with someone who needs to hear this powerful message of hope.
