On episode 615, I talked about the world needing more Mayberry so this week I wanted to challenge us all to try and spread that Mayberry spirit to others. I know that I’ve been blessed by folks reaching out to me and just saying, “I was thinking about you” so what would happen if all of us did that?

In Mayberry, folks checked on their neighbors when they hadn’t heard from them in a while. They’d drop by to see how they were doing or maybe have Sarah phone them so they could make sure they were okay. We have so many ways to communicate with each other these days and yet we still find reasons not to take time and do just that.

Let’s try and see what impact we might have on our friends and family if we act a little more like we’re from a small town.

We also share a laugh from Mayberry Days 2004 with a short clip of The Mayberry Deputy and Floyd killing time on stage before the start of the VW Boys concert.

Bonus: This week’s installment of This Week in Mayberry History by Randy Turner featuring “Howard McNear Part 1.”

The “This Week in Mayberry History” report inspired me to look into the episode “Bailey’s Bad Boy” more closely. We see Opie learn a lesson about paying his own way. When he makes a mistake, he needs to stand on his own two feet and meet the responsibility associated with what he’s done.

This is an episode that we may be able to learn from and Ron Bailey certainly did. How many shows today have the courage to express the opinion that having everything given to someone, while generous, may not be for the best in the long term. I can’t really think of any. Thank goodness for the lessons of The Andy Griffith Show.

Bonus: This week’s installment of This Week in Mayberry History by Randy Turner featuring “Bill Bixby.”

When the precursor to iMayberry.com began back in 1991, it was partially as a way to deal with the uncertainty of the time. The aerial bombardment of Iraq in had begun in Operation Desert Storm or as many call it, the First Gulf War. It was a stressful time for our country. News reports of what was happening in the war region was continuous and it was hard to get my mind off of what was going on. My biggest release was the half hour or so I spent each day visiting “Mayberry.”

I would log on the computer and as I visited with my Mayberry friends, I was able to forget the worlds troubles and smile. I thank the good Lord for those friends and how they ministered to me by just being friendly and sharing a laugh with me through that time of stress.

We need that today, just like back in 1991. Actually, we’ve needed it in all the time in-between because there is always stress. It is friends and relationships that are really important in our lives. Let’s spend a little time together in Mayberry and recharge our spirit. Focus on what’s really important and grow our friendships and relationships because in the years to come, that’s what will make “the trees nice and full.”

Bonus: This week’s installment of This Week in Mayberry History by Randy Turner featuring “The Ghost and Mr. Chicken.”
