This unity is a testimony to the community and the world.Unity begins in small groups.“Even in these times, revival is still ready to break out. Even in these difficult times, in these changing times that we're in, God is still wanting to do something magnificent. And He is going to do something magnificent through everything that we're going through.” - Pastor Ricky Monroe“The thing that puts us on the cusp of revival is repentance… Repentance keeps you in the presence of God” - Pastor Ricky Monroe“In repentance, … I get rid of everything that is keeping me out of the presence of God, that's keeping me out of fellowship with my brothers and my sisters. So, I've let the devil know that I'll not allow him to cause superficial things or carnal things to keep me from the greater spiritual thing: which is revival for me, which is revival for my church, which is revival for my city, which is revival for my community, which is revival for the nation; so then, the Lord can see that He has a people who can re-remember who He is and [He can] come in a do a great thing.” - Pastor Ricky Monroe

This episode is all over the place with tidbits about upcoming travel destinations for me along with travel happenings in Daytona Beach, Thomasville (GA) and updates on new and refurbed Norwegian Cruise Line ships.

In the South, if you’re lucky, you know we can throw a party. The gentlemen of Epting Events in Athens, Ga. are some of the kings of Southern hospitality. Patriarch, master caterer, storyteller, and general ringmaster Lee Epting has orchestrated parties and weddings for many well-known Southerners for close to 50 years. Sons Ashley, the idea man and filmmaker of Black Tie & BBQ, and Daniel, the logistics and all around HYS guy, have helped propel the business into one of the preeminent event companies in the country, much less the region. And what is HYS, you may be wondering? You have to listen and find out. I recently got the chance to be present at one of their events -- the Shotgun Supper Club in Thomasville, Ga. -- and I get what that Epting Event buzz is all about. The food was sincerely delicious, it was beautiful, and it was easy to have a good time. It’s prime party weekend, and if you are worried/stressed/or otherwise anxious about party giving or attendance this weekend, then these guys will get you in the mood with specific tips. It’s all about relaxed fun, and hey, a Bloody Mary doesn’t hurt either.

When it comes to supper clubs, few do it better than the Shotgun Supper Club, a bi-annual gathering in Thomasville, Ga. hosted by Nan Myers and Carol Whitney. Some well-respected Southern chefs have cooked for this special club, and I recently got the opportunity to be a part of it all. You’ll hear us shout out to a lot of other Southern Fork guests and friends in this episode, because connection is what a supper club is all about, but you’ll also get some ideas about organizing one for yourself.
