Garrison Keillor on "Those People called Methodists" I love Garrison Keillor. The Prairie Home Companion is a great Saturday evening (or Sunday afternoon) treat if you listen to NPR. I don't know where Ben got this, but it is very funny. Interesting tidbits to get out of this bit: Garrison Keillor and Jeff Foxworthy are Methodists. Here are some other famous Methodists you may not have known about: Will Rogers George Lucas ( Star Wars ) Jeff Smith ( The Frugal Gourmet - one of my cooking heroes - UM minister) Stephen Crane (writer - Red Badge of Courage ) Stephen King Jackie Robinson Tom Landry Thomas Welch (Welch's grape juice) William Booth (founder of Salvation Army) Hugh Hefner ( Playboy ) So there is a little bit of Methodist trivia for today. Enjoy.
