Buckys Barnyard

Sharing2 Corinthians 9:7

A wet summer left one good cut of hay and two farms that needed it, and a man had to decide in a yard with a boy watching. This message walks 2 Corinthians 9, a verse about the manner of giving rather than the amount, and what it means that God is described as loving a particular kind of giver.

One Load of Hay and Two Barns

Messages

Dad Left the Supper on the Table

I Fixed It and I Did Not Tell Anybody

The Goat Got Out and the Fence Got Fixed

I Got Lost at the County Fair

He Wrecked the Potluck Tablecloth and Everybody Laughed

Wattles Brought Nothing and Ate Plenty

Twenty Minutes Every Morning for Thirty Years

One Load of Hay and Two Barns

I Had to Stand Up in Front of the Whole Church

The Gate Hinge Nobody Notices

The Meeting I Did Not Want to Go To

The Ladder Fell Down and I Found the Wasp Nest

The First Night in the Hayloft On My Own

The Seed Corn

The Debt I Kept a List Of

The Note From School in My Coat Pocket

Bucky Planted the Garden and He Did It Wrong

The Fence I Said I Mended

Rudy Stepped on My Drawing

Saying the Hard Thing to a Man Twice My Size

The Scarecrow Came Down and We Saw the Corn

The Row I Weeded That Nobody Walks Down

I Went Out at Two in the Morning

He Ruined the Model I Made for Six Weeks

The Thing I Broke That Nobody Had Missed Yet

The Apology That Never Came

I Swept the Barn and Nobody Came to Look

I Forgave Him and Then I Wanted It Back

The Last Slice of the Birthday Cake

Nobody Has Ever Thanked Me for the Water

The Door I Did Not Want to Knock On

The Neighbor Who Never Said Sorry About the Fence

He Got Out at the Church Picnic

He Would Not Leave the New Calf Alone

He Ran Off on the Coldest Morning of the Year

He Ate the Half I Was Going to Give Away

I Nearly Let It Go and Then I Did Not

He Went Through the Creek and I Went In After Him

The Last of the Firewood

He Ate It and He Is Not Sorry and He Is Never Going to Be

Bucky in the Christmas Tree

I Told On Myself Before Anybody Asked

The Small Brave Thing Nobody Saw

I Said the Milk Count Was Right

I Hid in the Hayloft and Nobody Yelled

I Told the Vet What I Wished Was True

The Twelfth Time in One Week

The Egg Count Was Off By Four

Half a Sandwich and a Boy Who Had None

He Wrecked It Again and I Let It Go Faster

The Bull in the Top Field

Somebody Said He Would Not Come This Time

I Put the Tools Back in the Right Places

Bucky Is Not Afraid of Anything

I Have Never Once Not Gone After Him

The Best Lie I Ever Told Lasted About Four Minutes

Everybody Here Is Bigger Than Me

Half a Truth Is a Whole Job

The Truck Would Not Start and That Is Why We Found the Dog

The Water in the Dog's Bowl

He Ate the Papers and We Kept the Field

I Was Wrong About the Neighbor

There Were Two Apples and I Counted Them Eleven Times

Nobody Sent for the One Who Fixed It

Forty Years and I Can Still Hear Him Say It

The Feed Bucket and the Same Ten Steps

He Came Back on His Own and Nobody Made a Speech

The Job That Has to Be Done Again Tomorrow

Rudy Cannot Crow and That Is Why We Were Late

The Night He Went Into the Woods

The Thing Wattles Said at the Potluck

Rudy Practices Every Single Morning

Two Coats and One of Them Fit Somebody Else

I Said It Was All Right and Then I Meant It

The Boring Part Is Most of It

My Friend Broke It On Purpose

I Told Deacon Wattles About His Casserole

The Storm and the Chickens and Me
