Walker Percy...a writer with Spirit

I have to believe that the Holy Spirit is also present in/on the internet. A while back, I was looking for some literary references to things I was preparing for one of my religion classes. One hit led to another and I found myself looking at material written by the man I had heard so many things about in my youth, a man of the old south who grew up learning about life from his uncle and spending early days along the levees of the Mississippi River. He ended up living down here in Lousisiana and saw many of the things that I see.

Something for Cameron

Yesterday we watched "Wide Awake," a movie about a young boy searching for God.
