  • Do our sins cause God’s wrath ?

    To the editor:

    Is God’s wrath caused by our sins? When a natural or man-made tragedy occurs, someone sometimes says, “It is the result of God’s wrath for specific sins.” Most people agree our God is a loving God and ask why would he allow something so terrible to happen to people he loves.

  • Real-time disaster information network needed

    To the editor:

    As impressive as the state and county’s response to Hurricane Florence was, there is one area concerning public safety that appears to have been overlooked: the public need of real-time information on flooding, road closures and other hazards.

  • Thanks to Cooke for helping out during hurricane

    To the editor:

    A great big thank you to one of our county commissioners, Martin Cooke. While he was driving around Brunswick County assessing the damage to the county from Hurricane Florence, he saw my car stopped and came by to see if I needed help.

    This was a very busy time for all in this county and I want to say how nice it was of him to take his time and push my car out of the north exit of Sea Trail.

  • Community is blessed with caring people

    To the editor:

    Neighbors helping neighbors has reached a new level! Walking home, I approached neighbors talking on their driveway about their experiences with Hurricane Florence. I related my lot was loaded with tree debris. I had filled my drums just clearing my driveway and a small piece of lawn and was waiting for a lawn-care provider to finish the job.
