Randy Travis Releases New Single Lead Me Home and Wins Earphones Award for his Memoir


Randy Travis has recently released a new single and wins special audiobook award. Read on.



Randy Travis continues to deliver to his fans with a new single from the Warner Archives, “Lead Me Home.” In true Travis style, he takes his traditional country roots and combines them with bluegrass influences. Following “One in a Row,” this is one of a select few singles to be released since a massive stroke in 2013, which has affected his ability to perform.

“Lead Me Home” was recorded years before the stroke but was never widely released to audiences, only offered as an exclusive on iTunes. In the song, Travis sings about how he needs the love of a woman, surely singing with his wife, Mary, in mind.

“Mary was having to make life-or-death decisions about my situation all on her own, trusting God to guide her,” said Randy Travis in his memoir, Forever and Ever, Amen: A Memoir of Music, Faith, and Braving the Storms of Life.

Travis’ memoir recently won AudioFile Magazine’s coveted “Earphones Award” for the audiobook narration by Rory Feek. The award is given out monthly to “titles that excel in narrative voice and style, characterizations, suitability to audio, and enhancement of the text.” The memoir takes readers behind the music, with candid, never-before-told details, of his troubled youth full of drinking and stealing cars, a tense relationship with his father and the rollercoaster ride of more than 40 years in the music and acting industry. With the help of New York Times Best-Selling Author, Ken Abraham, and Travis’ wife Mary, this memoir recounts the singer’s journey of perseverance and redemption from his early childhood memories up until the book was penned, recovering from a life-changing stroke and painful divorce, enjoying the life he was given and learning to “sing a new song.” The book can be purchased at various retailers as well as www.foreverandeveramenbook.com.

Haymaker: VR Brawling, Up Close - Authentic, physics‑first combat that turns your body into the controller. (Game Review)

Haymaker is a physics‑first VR brawler in active Early Access that prioritizes authentic, body‑driven melee and high replayability. Its core systems are already playable: weighty, physics‑based hand interactions for grabbing, grappling, and striking; gesture‑driven kicks and knees that reward full‑body motion; adaptive AI that reads and reacts to the battlefield; and sandbox encounters that encourage improvisation with props and environment. Many systems remain in prototype; levels, progression loops, and some modes are still being shaped, but the mechanical foundation is solid and satisfying. The studio is deliberately using Early Access as a development lab: player feedback will guide tuning, bug fixes, and content expansion, so the game you play now is a promising glimpse of a more polished, content‑rich brawler to come. Core systems and combat • Physics‑driven hands : Interactions are governed by a weight‑aware physics model that responds to force, angle, and momentum; so grabs, h...

Letter Lost: Postmarked Secrets - A cozy post office that hides rules and a deeper mystery. (Demo Preview)

Letter Lost drops you into the Kharnym Isle Post Office as its sole employee, tasked with the deceptively simple work of stamping, sorting, and dispatching the island’s mail. On the surface it’s a cozy workplace sim; polite locals, daily pay, and mandatory room and board that removes the hassle of commuting, but the office’s cheery routine is threaded with odd rules and quiet contradictions that quickly make the ordinary feel off‑kilter. What begins as a satisfying loop of weighing parcels and matching stamps soon becomes a game of attention: letters hide hints, patrons’ small talk slips into unsettling confessions, and management’s insistence that you never leave the premises reads less like policy and more like a warning. The demo covers your first four days on the job, teaching the systems while nudging you toward choices, obey protocol and keep the peace, or pry at the seams and uncover the post office’s darker purpose. Either way, those first shifts are a careful, uncanny invitat...

550 Geese Killed at the Request of an HOA — And the Question We Can’t Ignore

In Madison, Alabama, more than 550 geese were captured and killed in a single coordinated operation carried out by USDA Wildlife Services at the request of a homeowners association. What was described as a “population control effort” has ignited a deeper and far more uncomfortable conversation: When did wildlife become something we simply remove when it becomes inconvenient? According to reports from the Heritage Plantation HOA, the geese population had grown to levels they claimed were “five times” what was considered sustainable for the area. The association said it had spent years attempting non-lethal methods, including deterrents and egg management strategies, before ultimately requesting a full-scale cull approved under federal wildlife guidelines. Nine USDA agents carried out the operation. Within a single night, hundreds of birds that had been living, nesting, and raising young in the community were gone. The HOA cited concerns about sanitation, water quality, and public health...
