Celebrating The Gardens of Pearl Fryar!


I say run don't walk to your local movie rental store and pick up the charming documentary film, 'A Man named Pearl'. Pearl Fryar is the son of sharecropper who turned a life of hardship into a literal garden of delight and put the small town of Bishopville, South Carolina on the map. He is a model of what is possible when you give your life to God, overlook the ignorance or prejudice of others, see the beauty in what others throw away , believe that obstacles are in your path for good reasons, and give your all to what you love.
