The Buffalo Show debuts this Sunday, October 24th with a couple of very special guests. Barry Lee Harwood was a member of The Rossington Collins Band, the supergroup that came together following the tragic Lynyrd Skynyrd airplane crash of 1977. Barry Lee has just released his long awaited solo album and it is a good one!
We also welcome one fine guitar slinger to the show, Rickey Godfrey. Rickey was a member of the Capital Records recording group Garfeel Ruff back in the day, and has never slowed down. He made great strides in the beach music field, but with his new record he returns to his Southern Rock roots. Join us for some fun conversation. Call in and speak with these living legends!

Galatians 5: 22-26
Galatians 5:22-26 (The Message)
But what happens when we live God's way? He brings gifts into our lives, much the same way that fruit appears in an orchard—things like affection for others, exuberance about life, serenity. We develop a willingness to stick with things, a sense of compassion in the heart, and a conviction that a basic holiness permeates things and people. We find ourselves involved in loyal commitments, not needing to force our way in life, able to marshal and direct our energies wisely.
Legalism is helpless in bringing this about; it only gets in the way. Among those who belong to Christ, everything connected with getting our own way and mindlessly responding to what everyone else calls necessities is killed off for good—crucified.
Since this is the kind of life we have chosen, the life of the Spirit, let us make sure that we do not just hold it as an idea in our heads or a sentiment in our hearts, but work out its implications in every detail of our lives. That means we will not compare ourselves with each other as if one of us were better and another worse. We have far more interesting things to do with our lives. Each of us is an original.

think good thoughts ...
Tact is the art of making a point without making an enemy
Reckless words pierce like sword, but the tongue of the wise brings healing. Proverbs 12:18 NIV

Living a life without prayer is like building a house without nails
Unless the Lord builds the house, it builders labor in vain

If there be any truer measure of a man than by what he does, it must be by what he gives.
It is more blessed to give than to receive.

Rediscovering the Kingdom
(Excerpt from “Rediscovering the Kingdom” by Myles Munroe)
When God speaks to us, He always speaks to the real person, not the person others see or even how we see ourselves. He looks beyond our external circumstances and personal characteristics as He addresses the leader inside us. No matter who we are, where we are, or what we do, God wants to deploy us into leadership. Wherever we work, whatever our career, we should think of our employment not as just a job but as an opportunity God has given us to release our leadership abilities. We should not complain about our wages or salary because we are already worth more than anyone could ever pay us. Work is not about simply making money in order to live. Work is also about being trained to assume our rightful place of leadership in the world.
As believers, we are all children of the King. The first step in successfully navigating between two kingdoms is learning how to think and act like the King’s children. In spiritual reality we are all princes and princesses, but practically speaking most of us are not there yet because negative thinking has stunted our mental processes. Because we never learned to think like royalty, we still act like the prodigal son, seeking only the servant’s share.
God wants us to open our eyes to see the wonders of who we truly are – His children – and reach out to claim all that is ours by right of sonship. It all comes down to a decision that each of us alone must make: whether we will live as sons and daughters in the Kingdom of God, or as subjects in the kingdom of the world.
MAKE IT A GREAT DAY!
