  • Out our Way: Yaze! A Modern Job Speaks!

    Updated Nov 3, 2023

    Job 19:26-27 - "I know that my redeemer lives!" Out our way, we all know the old saying, "Ain't a horse that can't be rode; ain't a cowboy can be throwed." And that is pretty much true for all walks of life. Everybody gets tossed now and then. But sometimes it seems some end up "sunning their moccasins" more than others.

  • Pastor's Corner: A daily dose of November

    Updated Nov 3, 2023

    The night of fright has passed. Those costumes that were eagerly obtained with high anticipation of being donned around town are now crammed into already forgotten corners of bedroom and closet floors, thrown into the shadows of exile, perhaps never to be worn again. As buckets of candy are consumed, little wrappers fall like autumn leaves - shiny, plastic costumes never to be worn by any other confectionary again. Perhaps not since some holiday on the other side of summer...

  • From the Fringe…Glad the Vandals are back

    George Ferguson|Updated Nov 3, 2023

    It was a soggy September day in 1994. Washington-Grizzly Stadium was still the small venue that featured grass end endzones and crowds of under 15,000 fans. Of course, by then, the Griz were on the rise, with junior Dave Dickinson already one of the best quarterbacks in Montana history, and popularity was skyrocketing. But, for me, that’s the day everything really changed for Montana football, and it was all because of then arch rival Idaho. That day, the Vandals were r...
