    Marcie Brost|May 23, 2023

  • Follow IN Faith

    Dan Nefzger|May 23, 2023

    Psalm 25 Jesus gave us a good model for prayer in Psalm 25. What motivates us to talk to God? All throughout God's Bible we are commanded to pray. Jesus considered prayer so important that He regularly left the crowds to seek time alone with His Father (Mark 1:35, Luke 5:16). This is a reason for us to have a busy prayer life with God the Father. Just like any marriage or friendship or family relationship, communication is required if it is to grow and flourish, and that includes our...

    Dear Savvy Senior, Does Medicare cover physical therapy, and if so, how much coverage do they provide?

    "We look at the world once, in childhood. The rest is memory." (Louise Gluck, Pulitzer Prize Poet) I hadn't watched a National Basketball Association game on TV beginning to end for years and then a few years ago I stopped watching altogether. But just the other day while channel surfing on my way to an old SEINFELD episode or maybe it was the Munich tennis tourney on Golf Channel, I saw the Celtics playing somebody. Which—as everything seems to in these elderly days of mine—reminded me of somethings: how important basketball was to me gro...

  • Notes From Nelson

    Ken M. Nelson, McCone County Extension Agent|May 23, 2023

    Each spring I like to remind families of the dangers associated with ATV's. We simply can't be too careful when we are operating them.

ATV's have replaced the horse on many cattle operations. Farmers are using ATVs for many different chores and tasks all over the farm. Homeowners have ATVs for work and play as well. We all know ATVs can be fun as well as helpful with...
