This section will concern itself with the history of public discourse in Spring Grove, Minnesota. It will be a resource for accessing important sermons, essays, and speeches that have been milestones in influencing our people. The opinions will be those of their authors, presumably, at the time they were written, unless of course, they were ironic. They may not still be those of their authors. By providing these ideas, Giants of the Earth Heritage Center hopes to provide a means to honor rational deliberation in our town, and to inspire us to meet the demands of our age with the same “can do” attitude and cooperation that we have in the past.

No one should be ashamed to admit they are wrong, which is but saying, in other words, that they are wiser today than they were yesterday.-Alexander Pope
