Riverfront Master Plan imagines more than an RV park
Some folks claim there are three answers to prayer: “Yes,” “No,” or “Wait.”
We’re hoping the City of Milton is patient enough to wait before committing to build an RV park on its waterfront property at Quinn’s Bayou.
For God’s Sake: Merit is the price for favor in our world
Early last Sunday morning, a relative sent me a text with a photo of a page from a book he was reading.
Enlarging the photo, I saw that the topic of discussion on the page was God’s grace, and it defined grace as, “God rewards me for letting him reward me.”

We will be experiencing a little louder “Sound of Freedom” this coming Monday – through Thursday, Sept. 12 – 15, when the 58th Fighter Squadron of Eglin conducts night flying operations in the area when F-35 fighter aircraft will conduct missions between 7:30 p.m. and 10 p.m.
Night flying is required for 58th FS training operations and we are glad they are receiving the training they need.
For God’s Sake: Valued piece of scratch-pad paper now resides in the front of my Bible
One Sunday morning before a worship service, a young girl in the congregation, her face alight with a bright smile, handed me a piece of scratch-pad paper.
“Pastor, I made this for you,” she said. I am grateful anytime anyone is thoughtful enough to make something for me, so I thanked her.

We are excited for the fun of the Beaches to Woodlands tour to begin as they celebrate their 19th anniversary of connecting north and south Santa Rosa County with events.
We hope you will take part in the fun and venture up to the north end of the county for some adventure there as well. There is an outline of events with dates in this issue.
City makes compelling argument against widening U.S. 90
Moving traffic through or around Milton isn’t a new concern. The city considered building a second bridge over the Blackwater River to connect Berryhill Street to U.S. Highway 90 and create a bypass at least 20 years ago.
But now that the Florida Department of Transportation is moving ahead with a plan to widen Caroline Street (U.S. 90) from two to four lanes between Stewart Street and Ward Basin Road, the debate over downtown’s future has taken on a new urgency.
For God’s Sake: Bible reminds believers they are not alone
My wife will occasionally ask me to read to her because she says that my voice is soothing and puts her to sleep.
She asks at bedtime, and I confess, I don’t often comply because I am tired. I like the fact that my wife finds my voice that soothing; it’s kind of like a superpower.

It was a hot early-summer Sunday afternoon at Tate. Pace kicker Reice Griffith was getting ready to put in work with One on One Kicking, but before he did, he and I talked football for a bit.
I asked him about the life of a kicker, including the pressure that comes with it, and Griffith didn’t even blink when discussing it during our interview.
