Home to Hardscuffle and all That Jazz

This recent addition to the morality story genre is loaded with bad things happening to good people, bad people in the pulpits, good people in the pews, murder, death in childbirth, bad attitudes and changing attitudes, life in a rural slum, and the rebirth of a small city, and peopled by a heroic physician, politicians with pushy spouses, preachers with pushy bishops, and hard-working educators led by a conscientious governor. In the town of Fort Anthony, Indiana, there remained remnants of the 1915 version of the Ku Klux Klan among church members and their neighbors. Home to Hardscuffle tells the stories of the people who were impacted by the remaining shadow of the Klan. They were the imperfect 1 Corinthians 13 Christians who knew in their hears that the stigma of hate must be replaced with Christian love.
