Woodshed Wisdom

ISBN: 1462886787
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 148
Book Description
This book is a compilation of 57 essays on diverse subjects ranging from anthropomorphism to failed batteries. They’re from a portfolio of more than 400 articles I’ve written over the past 40 years which have been published in various newspapers and magazines under the byline Woodshed Wisdom. I named it that because much of the wisdom I’ve attained was imparted to me behind the woodshed. My writing was influenced by my father, Oliver Ross Stevens, who was Outdoor Editor for the Manchester Union Leader and President of New England Outdoor Writers Association. It is rewarding to note that my grandchildren, Jack and Megan Stevens, still young students, are recognized and published authors

Woodshed Wisdom, Vol. 1
Author: Freeman Martin
Publisher: Tate Publishing
ISBN: 1621475700
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 250
Book Description
Imagine growing up in a clapboard farmhouse without running water, without an inside bathroom, where the sole source of heat was a two-sided fireplace and a wood-burning cookstove in the kitchen, and where air conditioning was non-existent. Now, with all the technological advances of the twenty-first century that allow us to communicate instantly with people all over the world, it's no surprise that we, as the most blessed nation on the face of the earth, are lightyears removed from the simpler time in which people looked to and depended on God's Word for answers to life's questions. Only history will determine if these powerful distractions have led to the extinction of the wisdom of the woodshed. In Woodshed Wisdom, Vol. 1, Freeman Martin gives his personal account of how he experienced God and his word while growing up on a southern farm in the 1950s. While reading, you will be transported to a humbler way of life and will find yourself desiring a simpler daily communion with God over the static of modern life. Freeman Martin is a gifted man of God...You will be blessed by his words of inspiration and homespun humor. —Dr. David Gallamore, Senior Pastor, Rock Springs Baptist Church, Easley, SC Freeman Martin has hit it out of the ballpark with Woodshed Wisdom, Vol. 1! With a healthy dose of humor and rare spiritual insight, Woodshed Wisdom serves up a delightful slice of Americana about a large family surviving and thriving on a farm in the '50s. Every visit to the woodshed will simultaneously tug at your heart and make you want to stand and applaud. This book is a must-read! —J. Gresham Barrett, former U. S. Congressman, South Carolina, Third District Jesus perfected the art of parable telling, earthly stories revealing heavenly truths. In Woodshed Wisdom, Freeman Martin follows that tradition, plucking heavenly truths for today from his well-worn memories of growing up in Appalachia. —Houston T. Hawkins, Colonel USAF (retired)
