Miracle Mindset

Written by Ken Kulsey. Godzilla Minus One is arguably the best monster movie ever! Heck, it is honestly one of the best movies that I have seen in years. This is nothing like the campy Godzilla films you know. The human drama will make you cry, and the monster action is filled with 'OH MY GOD!" moments. Great script, great acting, and visuals that will blow your mind. Even if you are not a monster movie fan, this is a must-see movie event!

 This past week, my travels led me to the town of El Dorado in south-central Arkansas. My time there was limited, but I did manage to spend some time in the city's rather charming downtown area. Overall, the city of El Dorado is pretty atypical in regard to most locations throughout the region, meaning that there is a lot of poverty and rough neighborhoods, so I was surprised to discover an oasis of upscale dining, shopping, and entertainment in the old downtown district.

 Story and Photos by Ken Hulsey Last month, while driving from Beaumont, Texas to Lafayette, I stopped at the Explore Louisiana Welcome Center – a familiar pit stop where I had previously stretched my legs and used the facilities. However, this time, a co-worker's recommendation of a nearby nature trail piqued my interest. Though I had been to the center before, I had never ventured out to explore the spectacular swamp trail winding around the adjacent lake.

 Written By Ken Hulsey This weekend brought some wonderful fall showers to Central Louisiana, along with much-welcomed cooler temperatures. For the first time in a long while, I was able to enjoy some quality time outside. I’m a sentimental person who loves rain; I enjoy watching it fall, and when it’s not thundering, I like to take long walks in the rain. There’s something magical about experiencing the soothing calmness of a gentle or steady rain shower. The sounds change, the air feels different, and the overall vibe transforms. Rain also provides an opportunity for solitude—a chance to think, reflect, and connect with God.

What happens when you’ve made the perfect plan for your life, only to see it all fall apart? In Daniel 11, we learn that kingdoms rise and fall, leaders change, and even our best plans can fail. Yet, through every season of uncertainty, one truth remains: God never changes. Pastor Steven shares his personal journey of returning home from military deployment with dreams of marriage, family, and a carefully crafted future. When those plans fell apart, he faced depression, disappointment, and a loss of purpose. However, through unexpected circumstances, he ultimately discovered that God was writing a story greater than the one he had envisioned.

Trick-or-treating is one of the most cherished Halloween traditions, where kids don their favorite costumes and eagerly go door-to-door asking, "Trick or treat?" Their playful inquiry often earns them delightful rewards like sugary candy or even a bit of pocket change. The “trick” part, of course, serves as a cheeky, lighthearted threat to prank the homeowners if they don’t receive a treat—though it’s rarely taken seriously!

 Written By Ken Hulsey In my opinion, the broadcast of H.G. Wells' classic novel "War of the Worlds," directed by Orson Welles and his talented Mercury Theater team, is one of the most fascinating moments in human history. It can be challenging for us to understand how this unique radio performance incited widespread panic, with many listeners convinced that Martians were genuinely invading Earth. Yet that’s precisely what happened.

The story opens with Linus and Lucy venturing into a nearby pumpkin patch in search of the perfect pumpkin. After Linus rejects a few smaller options, Lucy spots the largest pumpkin in the patch. Linus then clumsily rolls the massive pumpkin back home. Once there, Lucy grabs a large knife and starts slicing into the pumpkin, gutting it. At this point, a horrified Linus cries out, "Ohhhh, you didn't tell me you were going to kill it!" and begins wailing.

Written By Ken Hulsey. For over a decade, I have been writing about sightings of Bigfoot-like creatures in and around Southern California. As a general rule, these encounters have taken place in rural, mountainous, and even desert areas. Many of them occurred in secluded locations, while others surprisingly happened in populated areas adjacent to those mountains, forests, and deserts. It seems that Bigfoot wanders into neighborhoods from time to time, probably in search of food.
