As we barrel toward America’s 250th, one could argue that if we crack up before we get there (some bad days we’d take even odds), it’ll have something to do with the complexity of being in charge of executing one of the founders’ biggest ideas — that the church and the state were to be separate in this new nation of theirs. (It had been so much “easier” when the king told all us peasants what religion we were.)

Our framers, for the first time in history, asserted that a citizenry had “natural rights” as human beings, given to them only by God, to follow (and be responsible for) our individual consciences — including the right to not believe at all. These rights could then not be taken by the government. Those dudes in tights, both Christian and Deist, had birthed a country where all sorts of religious belief would thrive.

Turns out high principles about freedom for everyone all at the same time wouldn’t be a piece of cake and after 250-ish years of disagreement, we’re still haggling over those darn specifics — partly because we’re masters of not seeing the log in our own eyes.

God Squad will be doing what they do best — saying what needs said, while throwing a little empathy and respect out into the universe for the people who just don’t see it their way. With a little more of their unique version of mutual respect spreading from sea to shining sea, in fact, might we make it to 300?

Joining us for this God Squad will be Latricia Scrivens of Saint Paul’s United Methodist Church, Tim Holeda of the Co-Cathedral of St. Thomas More, Josh Hall of First Baptist Church Tallahassee, Rabbi Paul Sidlofsky of Temple Israel, Joseph Davis Jr. of Truth Gatherers Community Church, and Stefanie Posner of Temple Israel.

We’re delighted to offer this special program in partnership with WFSU Public Media.

Carrabelle’s three museums will open their doors free of charge on Saturday, October 5, for their annual Museum Day celebration. Camp Gordon Johnston Museum, Carrabelle History Museum, and Crooked River Lighthouse Museum will host special activities and exhibits.

Camp Gordon Johnston Museum will be open from 11 am – 5 pm ET.

Crooked River Lighthouse will be open from 9 am – 5 pm ET for this event. Guests can also enjoy the extended Country "Super" Market from 9 am-3 pm ET at Crooked River Lighthouse Park with local crafts, baked goods, area produce and a food truck.
Each year, Museum Day shines a spotlight on culture, science, and history, and this year's theme is “Pieces of History”. Carrabelle’s museums will each commemorate it with their own unique focus and interpretation, from intricate Native American pottery shards and shells unearthed from ancient middens, to the powerful artifacts of WWII and the historic Fresnel lens that guided sailors to safety. Visitors will learn how these pieces of the past reveal stories of cultural practices, military valor, and technological innovations. Visitors are invited to explore how each piece of history contributes to a broader understanding and provides insights into the diverse stories of Carrabelle’s past.


Author and speaker Robert Jacob will be featured at two locations on Museum Day. Robert has over 50 years of experience in living history portrayals and is passionate about dispelling myths and inaccuracies found in historical records. He has written several books, including A Pirate’s Life in the Golden Age of Piracy, Pirates of the Florida Coast: Truths, Legends, and Myths, and Blackbeard: The Truth Revealed. He will be at the Crooked River Lighthouse from 9 am - 12 pm ET for a book signing and informal discussions and upstairs at the Carrabelle History Museum from 2 pm - 4 pm ET for a book signing and to discuss the Pirates of the Florida West Coast. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Feb. 21, 2026 — Devard Darling, former NFL player and Florida State University football alumnus, will return to Tallahassee on Thursday, Feb. 26, 2026, to commemorate the 25th anniversary of his twin brother Devaughn Darling’s passing with a community blood drive, commemorative press conference, memorial walk, and bubble release.

Devaughn Darling died during spring conditioning at Florida State University on Feb. 26, 2001. His death drew national attention to athlete safety and helped prompt policy changes for student-athletes, including more rigorous approaches to medical screening and awareness of pre-existing conditions.

Hosted near Devaughn’s memory tree by the football facility, the event will be held in partnership with OneBlood and the Sickle Cell Foundation of Leon County. Organizers are aiming for 53 blood donors in honor of Devaughn’s jersey number.

“As we gather at his memory tree for a bubble release, we will not only remember my brother; we will celebrate the impact of his life. My brother rests eternally in his #53 Seminole jersey, and I will forever live and breathe Nole-blooded,” said Darling, founder of the As One Foundation.
