The Honoring Of Some Local Heroes
Saturday, April 7th, at 10:30 AM at Veterans Park we will have a ceremony honoring all Veterans and some local Veterans. Some had a part in the forming of DeSoto County and leadership in the early county. DeSoto County was formed May 19, 1887, a few years after the war between the states. The Veterans Memorial here has bricks honoring soldiers from both sides. Many of our leaders were in the Southern Army during the war. Please come out and help us honor some of our founders.

How Secure Are We In Today’s World?
Folks do you feel safe or less safe than you did 10-20 years ago? Life in our 21st century has proven to be anything but secure. Terror attacks escalating violence, racial tensions and threats of nuclear war, should I go on? It’s not new, for these things have been going on for many centuries. The 21st century is no different. Even in the first century different groups in their societies didn’t trust one another. The Roman Army was vicious and cruel, Rome had many corrupt rulers. Life was not safe and secure like today. Folks the only sure thing that can assure peace and safety is Christ’s resurrection. The resurrection is a sure foundation for this life and especially for the life to come. The empty tomb and the resurrected Jesus is the main focus on which our faith is built. Our faith in Jesus can bring that peace and safety. That security that is missing now in our lives can be restored by this faith in Jesus. Let’s examine why all these bad things I have talked about tear our security apart. Peace and happiness can never be achieved until this trust and faith is put in Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. We all know that all human beings are descendants of Adam, the first creation. We die physically and spiritually because of his sin with God. Adam and Eve’s sin against God affected not only them but us as well. Adam’s sin gave us judgment and condemnation. Death is not the end of life for those who have that faith. By having this faith we will be justified in Christ and will have the redemption of our bodies. Christ is the pattern and the reason for our resurrection. When he comes again, those who belong to him will experience a resurrection of their own. The Apostle Paul of the Bible reminded the Corinthian believers not only of participation in a future body resurrection but also participation in God’s kingdom in Christ. Several activities occur as the result of Christ’s triumphant return. Jesus will hand over the kingdom to his father God. The kingdom is the rule and reign of God over all things and all people. All things will be restored as they were originally designed to be before the wreckage of Adam’s sin. Second, Jesus will put all his enemies under his feet. The last enemy to be abolished is death. Last, Christ himself will be subject to the one who subjected everything to him God his father. The work that Christ accomplished through his death and resurrection was for the glory of his father. As Jesus hands over the kingdom to God the Father we should remember Jesus taught us to pray that God’s kingdom would come on earth as it is in Heaven. God’s kingdom awaits the return of Jesus Christ and the end of this age. This gospel of the kingdom, not just any gospel, but the true gospel will be preached in all the world as a witness to all nations and then the end will come. Folks our world is headed for major problems. We are going the wrong way. We should be heading towards God, not away from him. Thank You.

Darkness comes. In the middle of it, the future looks blank. The temptation to quit is huge. Don't. You are in good company... You will argue with yourself that there is no way forward. But with God, nothing is impossible. He has more ropes and ladders and tunnels out of pits than you can conceive. Wait. Pray without ceasing. Hope. - John Piper

Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. - Steve Jobs

William, “Bill” Coulter, 95, of Arcadia, Florida, passed away in his home, Wednesday, March 21, 2018. He was born in Winter Haven, Florida, and lived his entire life in Arcadia. Bill was a WW II veteran serving three years on board the U.S.S. Caperton as a Second Class Gunners Mate. He worked in automotive parts with Bert Tire Co., Arcadia Motor (Chevrolet) Company, and retired from Barney Ford in 1986. He was a lifetime member of Mt. Ephraim Baptist where he served as a Sunday School teacher, and Deacon for nearly 50 years. He also served as church treasurer for more than 40 years. He was also involved in the construction of the blocks used to build the church that Hurricane Charley destroyed. Bill is preceded in death by his wife of more than 65 years, Ortez (Tez).

“THE DREAM”
Peace River Shopper
Chapter 10 by Bumpy Thermos How did we get in this situation? All we wanted to do was go on a little vacation, spend one little week in Tennessee and just sit on the porch and look at the water go by. Yet here we are, sitting in my Aunts living room talking about my cousin Tommy that may be dead or hurt. How could we leave my Aunt in this situation? How could we just get in the car and go? I don’t know how we can just leave her here with her crying like this and worried about Tommy, but boy do I want to. I want to get right in that car and get going, putting all this behind me. I tried talking to my wife and friends, but they were against us leaving her like this. Well they haven’t heard all the things I have heard about my cousin Tommy and how he lived in the woods almost all of his life and how he had grown big and crazy looking. They had never heard about how he had scared the people in town and they were all afraid of him. But I had. Oh yea, I have heard a lot of stories about Tommy and I can tell you that every story I heard was about something scary that Tommy had done to somebody. When my Uncle Paul was alive, I overheard him telling my dad about some of the things his son Tommy had done so I grew up knowing about my cousin Tommy. Sure, I didn’t believe everything they said, but still it gave you the shivers just to hear about him. Now he could be out there somewhere hurt or worse. But who would we call? Or should I say, who could we go get to help? Remember the phone hasn’t worked in years. Town was only about 15 miles away. It would only take a few minutes to run over there. But would someone help us? Would the local people want to come out and help us look for Tommy? The guy who had scared so many people around here? I had to try something, so off I go to the local sheriff’s office. It didn’t take very long to get there. As I walked into the Sheriff’s office there was an older man coming out all dressed in overalls and he had a funny hat on. The hat is what caught my attention. It was old, worn and about half of the rim was torn. The hat had a big buckle on it. That might have been why it was torn. The buckle was a pretty big buckle and it had writing on it that read in bold red letters…HEAD KNOCKER! Weird huh? I asked a couple of guys who were standing there what it meant. They just looked at me and turned their backs to me. I went on in and asked for some help and finally this guy comes out from one of the rooms and asks me it he can help me. I explained the circumstance to him and as I did I could tell that everybody in the room was listening to our conversation. He tells me to hold on just a minute and he goes back into the room. A few minutes later he comes out with a another man. This time it was the Sheriff himself. He looks at me and says “who and what are you to Tommy?”…
