Miracle in a Hay Field

Born in 1926, Pastor Roger Burke has lived through the Great Depression, World War II and numerous other joys and challenges. Miracle in a Hayfield weaves together a lifetime of experiences and meaningful bible passages on relevant topics like family and marriage, dealing with death and illness, and faith in times of adversity.

Most of these stories were written weekly from July 11, 2004 until May 28th 2006 from personal experience for the First Baptist Church bulletin, Polk, Nebraska. The purpose for the stories was a kind of entre for the message of that day.

Other stories were written while I endured the pain of a pinched sciatic nerve as I waited from January 1 until February 11, 2010 for spine surgery. It is my sincere desire and prayer that the Lord Jesus will be honored through the stories and that you will find them a delightful and challenging resource for your inspiration and perhaps even a good laugh.
