All, On Wednesday I'm going to be talking about the Battle of Wilsons Creek (Civil War). My main foucs will be on Bloody Hill. Basicly the south made three charges at takeing the hill but all failed. At the peak of the fighting the whole south slope of the hill was covered in battle smoke. I will be then be talking about how we need to stand strong before the Lord; even when He seems far away. For Pioneer age boys, what would be the best way to present this so I don't lose them? Would it work from a historical stand point (aka history lesson)? Would it be alot better to work from a first person view point and role play?   Thanks, Noel "Spirit Rider"Bell
