Episode Description

Today we have a special double episode of From the Pasture with Hired Hand. We talk with Travis Johnson from in the sunny panhandle of Florida where he started raising Texas Longhorns a few years ago at his ranch, LTJ Longhorns. In the first episode, Travis shares how some long grass turned into an introduction to Terry King, purchasing his first longhorns & traveling to over a dozen sales &/or futurities in the first year. From there, he has grown his herd to 50+ head. The advice that has been given to him the most and the advice he would give other new breeders is to be patient; patience is the key to growing a good herd you'll be proud of.

Not only did Travis jump in feet first to the Longhorn breed, he also joined SETLA (Southeast Texas Longhorn Association), the area TLBAA affiliate. In the second part of today's episode, he shares how he became involved in SETLA and the importance & benefits of being an involved member in your area longhorn affiliate.

Travis is passionate about the herd, the SETLA organization and grateful for the mentoring he has received from Jimmy Jones, Terry King and many others. Fun fact, he's also passionate about little dessert cakes and nutter butters.

Posture Check! Hogan Veserat The Posture Check covers all the tools, tips, and tricks I wish I knew when I was an 18-year-old freshman in college.

Monaghan, Jesse Furey The great prophet Bob Dylan once echoed in a new cultural moment by declaring, "the times they are a changing." Change is rapid, constant, complex and nuanced in the way peoples and cultures are shaped. In our world many ideologies, views of the world, and understandings of reality are pitched and pivoted all around us using various methods of communication and technologies. People are shouting to be heard yet seem more separated than ever. The Gospel Underground seeks to be a dialogue taking place in the borderlands between the church and culture. People who have heard the call of Jesus have a distinct nature and existence in the world. They also need to have a distinct posture among others and the various perspectives held in our world. We hope to contribute to the conversation between people who are far from God, sought out by God and seeking God in various ways. Our hope is to have a posture of humility and service as we engage ideas in an entertaining and thoughtful way.
