You know, Lord, as the season rapidly changes into autumn, we notice that the birds are preparing to leave. A friend reminded me of a story she had heard about a bird's nest under the railroad tracks. She remembered in the story that the mother bird was sitting peacefully on her eggs and appeared undisturbed by the roar of the fast trains above and around her. Friend D. L. then recited the little verse she recalled that had gone along with this story - author is unknown....
A little girl left earth this week, her parents are distraught. Then neighbor, "Jill," left this earth, too, tough battle she had fought. A brother of a special friend took off for Heaven's "shore." His leaving was a big surprise, he only was fourscore. A long-time friend of ninety-five, could hardly wait to "leave!" Before she "left," we visited, she'd told us not to grieve. So - young or old, lived near or far, God knows our total "sum." Our days on earth, God's numbered...

Once upon a time in Montana we all would’ve been swimming with the fishes, but times change. The ice ages melt. The inland sea recedes. The Missouri River settles into a drainage 60 miles south. And the Milk River is left to meander through a gumbo valley that cuts through a high plains gumbo desert. This is modern times and everyone lives happily ever after. The End. You can’t see it, but I’m wiping away tears of laughter right now. Don’t feel left out, they’re not happy tea...

Saturday night, however, the two arch rivals are hoping for very similar results. The 13th-ranked Bobcats (0-1) and 22nd-ranked Grizzlies (1-0) will both play their home-openers Saturday night. The...
Montana State University-Northern head cross country coach Chad Spangler has built the program from the ground up, literally. It was less than five years ago that Northern added cross country as a full-time sport. Now, as the 2019 season dawns, Spangler is looking for his Lights and Skylights to take the next step. No longer just a young, up-and-coming program just starting out, Northern now aims to compete with the very best of the Frontier Conference. And Spangler has the ru...
The first road trip of the new season sure went well for the Montana State University-Northern Lights. After all, the Lights flew down to Phoenix and came home a day later with a 20-14, season-opening victory. Needless to say, the Lights were feeling very good about themselves on Sunday morning, and rightfully so. And yet, by Monday afternoon, Northern (1-0, 0-0) quickly, and abruptly, put everything that happened in the win over Arizona Christian in the past, and the reason...

But, before the Montana State University-Northern Skylights get to their first conference match - a road game at Lewis-Clark State Sept. 19, they have some more business to take care of. Northern (5-5) will travel south to Great Falls this weekend for three matches at the University of Providence Tournament. The Skylights play an exhibition match against NJCAA North...
The Havre High volleyball team has been excited all week to make its home debut.

Head coach Tamecia Jarvis' club stormed back after losing the first set to the Bison, 18-25, winning three straight games to pull off an...

Glendive moves into week two of Eastern A play with a 0-1 record after being struck down by...
This summer, my congregations have been looking at the testimonies of different women from the scriptures; one of the stories we’ve heard is from Mary and Martha. Mary and Martha were preparing to give a dinner party for Jesus. No pressure, right? Martha is distracted by her many tasks of preparing food, tending to guests, making sure drinks are offered and refilled, and perhaps tidying up quickly while no one is looking. Rather than helping her sister with the many tasks at hand, Mary instead sits at Jesus’ feet. Rightly so,...
In football, it's key to make plays and capitalize on every opportunity you get on both sides of the ball. Whether it's running the ball, throwing a touchdown, sacking the quarterback, or intercepting the ball, the game is fueled by these pivotal moments. But a good team also has something else important. Something so critical to a game that without it, the game and its players would struggle. The position is overlooked but appreciated with needed most - the linemen. Linemen...
