About eight months ago, Theresa and I were traveling through Georgia (again) and came across this little town called Madison. It's a beautiful town with a lot of history.
Madison is named after President James Madison, who was the newly elected president in the U.S. when the town was founded. People came to Madison from neighboring states and were deeded land from the Georgia land lottery.
Another interesting tidbit from history is that General William Tecumseh Sherman spared Madison in his infamous March to the Sea. While he burned other nearby towns, and laid waste to Atlanta, Madison was shown some mercy. The reason is because Georgia had a pro-Union Congressman who was friends with Sherman's brother.
The population of Madison in 1880 was just under 2,000. In 2020, it was about 4,500. That's not a lot of growth in 140 years. Still, there's a lot to like about this small antebellum town.
For starters, Madison has one of the largest historical districts in Georgia. That alone makes it worth visiting. The architecture is incredible, the culture is peachy, and the history is extraordinary. There are very few ways to go wrong in Madison, Georgia.

Re-Introducing the Biblical Legends Anthology Series - I'm looking for fans of speculative fiction to help me re-launch this popular series and revive new interest.
After last week's announcement that I've intended to revive the Biblical Legends Anthology Series, it seems the series had a resurgence of interest on Amazon. That's great news. I'm thankful for the interest. If you're one of those who bought the book, I'd appreciate you leaving a review.
Web3 Social Earnings, May 2023 - Once a month, I give a rundown of my earnings on Web3 social media. This report is for May 2023.
Last month was a month of experimenting, primarily with two platforms that are new to me. First was Mirror. The second was Paragraph. Mirror is a platform that allows creators to write blog posts and have them minted by collectors on the Optimism blockchain, a Layer-2 solution on Ethereum.
How Proverbs 13:13 Backs Galatians 6:7 - Is it possible that Proverbs 13:13 and Galatians 6:7 are connected through a broad spiritual principle?
On the surface, it may appear that Proverbs 13:13 and Galatians 6:7 are about different things. The proverb, for instance, is in the midst of others that compose a compilation of advice from a father to a son. Galatians 6:7, on the other hand, follows an admonition to spiritual students to share their wins with their instructors.
