Emphasis Preaching Journal

Dr. Charlie Shedd tells the tragic story about Abigail and Roger, the young hillbilly couple living in the Ozark Mountains. They just barely eked out a living from their little plot of ground, but they loved each other with a really beautiful love. They were expecting their first child. Roger wanted to surprise Abigail with something special when the baby was born. Many a night when the moon was bright and she had gone to sleep, Roger would sneak out and hunt raccoons, hoping to get skins enough to make a beautiful raccoon coat for his wife.
