Welcome to the Red Letters & Whitetails Podcast! On episode 16, host Steven  Crawford begins by diving into Pauls Letter to the Galatians in chapter 5, verse 14; Arguably one of the most powerful verses from Paul. "For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: "Love your neighbor as yourself." In a time of great turmoil and hate in our country, especially with this upcoming election, this is a great reminder in how Christians NEED to live their lives. Its not our job to judge, it's our job to live like and live for Jesus. And what did Jesus do? He LOVED. UNCONDITIONALLY. We run into people everyday that live, believe, and think differently; remind yourself that Jesus called us to LOVE them, not judge them.

After scripture, Steven is joined by Richard (Rick) Buckley, David Foster, and Nate Griswold to share an epic hunting story of strategy, determination, timeliness, decency, and helpfulness all wrapped into one story. I'm not going to spill the beans of this miraculous story of Rick's Michigan Public land giant in 2021, you'll have to listen for yourself as everyone included in this podcast had a huge part in this hunt and recovery.

Welcome to the Red Letters & Whitetails Podcast! On episode 15, host Steven Crawford is joined by fellow Michigan Christian and Hunter Joe Koetsier. They start by going in depth into Luke 11:11-13; discussing the importance of seeking a relationship with the Lord and asking him for guidance during the good and rough days in life. God loves you to a degree that we can't possibly humanly imagine, sometimes we need to remind ourselves of that and that he isn't against us, but ALWAYS for us.

After diving into the letters in red, Joe and Steven discuss small property hunting tactics along with a couple success stories from Joe on his 5 acres he owns behind his house. Steven recently moved to a house on 5 acres himself, so Joe and Steven bounce some ideas off each other on how to be successful on a small piece of property with a lot of limitations. A lot of us Michigan hunters are hunting small parcels, so this is a must-listen for most of us!!
