A sure sign that the college football season is upon us: The USA Today Coaches poll is out. The question for today: How accurate will it be? Well, last year it wasn't accurate at all. Seventeen teams that were in the 2022 preseason poll were not in the post-season poll. And many of the preseason picks went on to have losing seasons.
Parts of the South Mississippi Delta have suffered from chronic flooding for generations, but coming up with a solution has been controversial. The pumps that could prevent flooding could also damage the wetlands there. In recent months, the Environmental Protection Agency started pursuing a fix once again, and The Vicksburg Post has been covering how all of this impacts residents. Anna Guizerix is the managing editor of the paper. She spoke with the Gulf States Newsroom's Danny McArthur to discuss how the South Delta got to this point. New Orleans veteran actor Lance E. Nichols returns to the stage, taking on the autobiographical role of Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright August Wilson. He joins us for more on this new production at Le Petit Theatre, named “ How I Learned What I Learned.” Historic architecture meets modern innovative renovations as the Preservation Resource Center (PRC) of New Orleans brings back its spring tour. PRC executive director Danielle Del Sol tells us about the eight private homes opening their shutters for public view. Today's episode of Louisiana Considered was hosted by Diane Mack.

First recorded in 1929, did you know that the acclaimed Led Zepplin song "When the Levee Breaks" was about the Great Mississippi Flood of 1927? On April 21, 1927, following months of unprecedented rainfall throughout a watershed covering much of the United States, the mainline Mississippi River levee crevassed north of Greenville, Mississippi, creating the worse US national disaster until Hurricane Katrina. The event shaped the Delta, Mississippi, national flood control policy. Some claim it even changed America itself. Ramsey Russell and Hank Burdine are both natives of the Mississippi Delta with strong connections to Greenville. Keeping it light and conversational, they meet in the South Delta to discuss this epoch event 95 years later.

Having shared duck blinds in many places worldwide with Chris Gouras, I can tell y'all for fact that there's never been a lack of good things to talk about between volleys. The descendant of Greek immigrants, he's been around the restaurant industry since forever, and started duck hunting among true South Delta legends soon after moving to Mississippi. How'd Big John end up facing the wrong way in a Netherlands goose blind? Who were some of the colorful characters Gouras hunted with back in the good old days? What happened the morning he hunted with a former Mississippi Governor? Why does he say "Mississippi has time for people?" How important is good eats at Gouras's hunting camp? Who's the fastest draw in a deer stand - Chris Gouras or Ramsey Russell? What'd Gouras's father insist be rescued from his home office preceding an incoming hurricane, and what was he the world's best at catching? How muddy was the drive to Rio Salado last time Gouras visited and why's he still going back? Past, present and future times covered, all awesome, like every single time we've ever hunted together.

Today's guest credits duck hunting back in Mississippi's South Delta - that required long, gumbo mud hikes with his dad, across bean fields that stretched for as far as he could see - for his developing an appreciation for "working smarter not harder." He recalls the expansion of federal refuges in the Mississippi Delta and, as one of their employees, public relations fiascos and law enforcement challenges. What was it like hunting the Mississippi Delta back in the good ol' days? How'd he start working in federal law enforcement, and what happened when the federal government turned private hunting clubs into federal refuges? What was the most memorable thing said in his presence while a hunting guest at duck camps in Mississippi? What was the infamous "1:30 Hole", and fate likely befell this magical spot? Being a life-long duck hunter and wearing a federal agent badge formed fascinating perspectives that he shares in today's great episode.

What's the first thing you think of when you hear the word “worship?” For most of us, it likely involves some version of singing together with other believers. And there's good reason for that—singing and musical worship are an important part of how we honour and praise God. But what do we do when gathering together, and especially singing together, are some of the riskiest things we could do? In this week's episode, you'll get to listen in as Mike Mawhorter from our Church Lifecycles team talks with four worship leaders about the challenges and opportunities of leading the church into worship during this Covid season. You'll hear from Jayson Oldham, Director of Worship Arts at South Delta Baptist; Todd Gallahar, Pastor, Musician, and Songwriter; Kenzie Korzan, Worship Leader at Village Church; and Jared Mawhorter, Pastor of Worship and Youth at Richmond Baptist. They discuss the ways Covid has challenged them in their worship leading, how to create opportunities for congregational worship that don't include singing, and what their hopes are for the church as we move forward through and out of the pandemic. JAYSON OLDHAM Jayson is the Director of Worship Arts at South Delta Baptist Church and has enjoyed living and being a pastor in the great community of South Delta since 1998. He and his wonderful wife, Juli, have three kids and are currently fostering a fourth little one! Life is full and God is good. TODD GALLAHAR Todd is a pastor, speaker, musician, and songwriter who is all about loving others, singing from the heart, and soaring on the wind God provides. He is married to Amanda and together they have two nearly grown boys. You can find him at toddgallahar.com KENZIE KORZAN Born and raised on the west coast, Kenzie Korzan's love of the performing arts was fostered by gracious mentors and teachers from a young age. Her further studies at the Berklee College of Music ignited a passion for creativity in and through the church. This passion led her to Village Church, where she was brought onto the Worship Arts staff in 2016. Her most recent project was a collaborative EP showcasing musical interpretations of the first book of Psalms called Psalms (Book One) by Village Worship. Her and her husband, Nate, just welcomed their first child, Judah James, in June of this year. JARED MAWHORTER Jared Mawhorter is a pastor at Richmond Baptist overseeing the Worship and Youth ministries. He loves leading people to declare the goodnesses and greatness of our God. He grew up in a home that valued music and loved God. Jared has been a part of music ministry within the church since the 8th grade when he started learning to play the drums. Jared and his wife, Katie, have 3 precious children.
Most of us would say that of course we want our churches to be effective in reaching people of every nation and every tongue. But the reality of what it takes to actually do that so often feels overwhelming and out of reach. In this episode, Krista Penner speaks with Paul Park––lead pastor of South Delta Baptist Church––about how we can start to take real steps towards removing the barriers that keep us from reaching our diverse communities, and why it is vitally important that we do so. Mentioned in this episode: Many Colors: Cultural Intelligence for a Changing Church (Soong-Chan Rah) Paul Park Paul joined South Delta Baptist Church in 2013 and has fallen in love with the church since then. He transitioned into the lead pastor role in late 2017, and has been blessed to serve Jesus and the community of South Delta alongside SDBC. He has a strong passion for preaching God's word and communicating the love of Christ to anyone who is willing to listen. Outside of ministry, Paul enjoys spending time with his beautiful wife, Sarah, and their son, Nathan.

In this edition of The End Of The Line podcast, I am joined by Rob Heflin for part three of "The Hefinator." Last week, Rob posted some pictures on social media of the South Ms. Delta flooding when he was flying home. The pictures showed parts of the Ms Delta that haven't seen water since 2011 and a very long time before that. Then, Rob tells some old pilot stories and what it was like getting his instrument rating a few years back. Finally, he tells the one game warden story that almost ended badly for him. It is a story that opens your eyes up as a civilian to what these guys see on a normal day or how a normal day can go real bad in a matter of seconds.

BASF is in high cotton since the acquisition of Stoneville and Fiber Max as a result of the Bayer-Monsanto deal, as well as soybean varieties such as Credenz and Liberty Link. This is a new field for BASF but along with the brands came many specialists from Bayer who know the products well. Over the past month, Chuck has been to several field days and events spotlighting the BASF cotton and soybean brands so we are featuring some of the interviews he has done in this ZimmCast. The person who has been in charge of these events is Rachel Walters, Cottonseed Marketing Manager for BASF. The first field day he attended was in Louisiana, where he talked with Jerry Ford, regional seed lead for the South Delta region. At that same field day, regional agronomist Kyle Fontenot (fon-ten-no) talked about some of the hot cotton and soybean varieties BASF is excited about. The annual Celebrate Cotton Texas Tech football game, which has been an annual event for years to spotlight FiberMax and Stoneville cotton, helped to introduce the new owners of the brands to a larger audience. Monty Christian, Head of Global Cottonseed for BASF, was previously with Bayer and has always looked forward to the celebrate cotton event. During a field day in Marion Arkansas, BASF regional seed lead Lance Rochelle talked about their commitment to the cotton industry. BASF just held a big field day in Lubbock Texas with hundreds of growers and retailers. US Agronomic Services Manager Steve Nichols talks about the experience of the agronomic team that BASF has in place for their new portfolio. In addition to talking with cotton farmers and retailers, the company is also getting acquainted with buyers who are looking for sustainability in the cotton they source for clothing. Chuck talked with Malin Westfall, U.S. Cotton Lead for BASF, during a field day in Lubbock Texas about the E3 initiative that came with the Bayer cotton business.
