Reporter's note: Like most readers, I seldom have taken time to visit the sites connected to the Missouri River in and around Great Falls.

For the sauce for the potato salad you will need a quarter cup of a raspberry and vinegar salad dressing, a quar...

Q: If Jesus came back to earth and walked down the street of almost any one of our major cities, would anyone recognize Him? I’m curious about this, because we don’t really know what He looked like, do we? A: No, the Bible doesn’t tell us exactly what Jesus looked like while He was on earth. He lived in the Middle East—a part of the world that touches the continents of Africa, Asia and Europe—and He probably was similar in appearance to any other man living in that part of the world. Remember: He came for all humanity. Over the centuries...
