In this episode, I sit down with Bro. Kenneth Bobo, a man who has faithfully preached the Gospel of Jesus Christ for over 65 years.  We talk about his early days growing up in rural Arkansas, his call to the ministry, how he met his sweet wife, Mrs. Shirley, and many other things related to his ministry.  Bro. Kenneth has preached more than 600 revival services spanning over multiple states and into two foreign countries. 

I have no doubt whatsoever that one day Bro. Kenneth will hear Jesus say these words: "Well done, good and faithful servant; you were faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things.  Enter into the joy of your Lord."  (Matthew 25:21)

An amazing man who has lived a life faithfully serving his Lord.  I hope you enjoy this episode.

In this episode, I dust off the microphones with two former guests who just happen to be my neighbors and guys that I call friends.  There wasn't much of a script for this episode, we just went with the flow and shared a few stories along the way.  

The Christmas story as recorded in the Gospel of Luke, and the greatest gift ever given.

A brief episode to give an update on the hunting season thus far and looking forward to what's coming up the next two weekends.

I sit down with the two game wardens from my home county to discuss a wide range of topics related to being a game warden in the state of Arkansas.  Dennis Hovarter and Andrew Watson share stories from their time as wardens and answer a number of questions that I had throughout our conversation.  

A short update about a recent episode that I recorded and what to expect over the next few months on the Growing Up Southern podcast.

I sit down with Matt Bearden to talk about The Mayfly Project, a non-profit organization that introduces children in foster care to fly fishing and connects them to the outdoors.  Matt is the lead mentor for the Texarkana, Ar project and he shares some of the history of The Mayfly Project, how it was started, as well as sharing some personal and memorable stories from his time as a mentor.

In this episode, I sit down with Holli Boyett and Mandy McLelland who are both county coordinators for The CALL, a Christian non-profit organization that offers support to foster children and foster families throughout Arkansas.  

They share information about The CALL, the many ways you can support the organization and the immediate need for foster families in our area and throughout our state.

The CALL is an Arkansas organization but there are certainly other organizations like it throughout the United States.   A simple internet search can lead you to similar organizations in your state.

In this episode we discuss losing our dads and the situations surrounding each of their passings.  We also talk about having daughters who have faced a critical/chronic illness and how those situations, along with losing our dads, tested but strengthened our faith.

Part One of my sit down with Dustin Cooley.  He talks about his time growing up in a small town and those who influenced his life.  He's also an avid outdoorsman who loves to hunt and fish, and he shares several memorable stories from hunting game in south Arkansas.

We share a lot of laughs in this episode and Dustin sets the record straight about the "Doe pee" story that the Curtis boys told in their episode several weeks ago.
