http://www.pudgehuckaby.com/Pudge Huckabymost know him as Pudge, I know him as Rob who also doubles as my son. Pudge/Rob met his pastor, Perry Noble, at a Clemson FCA meeting while attending Clemson. He began to attend NewSpring, later began to volunteer and was called to be on staff. Currently, Pudge serves as Children’s Pastor at NewSpring Greenville. One thing you’ll learn as you read his blog is that he gets all his smarts from his mother. I’ve learned a lot from my son along the way and I recommend his blog to you.
http://deeandlindavaughan.blogspot.com/ Dee Vaughan - I first met “Dee” while we were in seminary and he came to be the pastor of my home church, First Baptist, Woodruff. We soon forged a friendship that has been a tremendous blessing in my life. He has been with me in revivals in every church that I’ve pastored (and by the end of the week everyone loved him and wanted him to be their pastor). He has been with our family in the high moments of life and the also the difficult. We celebrated together as he helped with our daughter’s wedding and he also grieved with us as he shared in my dad’s funeral. Dee is a master at writing, his words inspire and challenge me, I encourage you to check out my friend Dee Vaughan.

I’ve had the privilege to sit under his teaching and experienced the “blessing” of having him make red marks all over my writing projects (many as a matter of fact). His blog is a great read and offers encouragement and challenge. You ought to check it out.
