Attended church services with my daughter and grandson for the first time here at the Indian Mound Methodist Church on Sunday. It was their homecoming revival service. Enjoyed the service and friendly people. I didn't bring my bible because most churches I attend have pamphlet's on the service to go by. Here one actually opens the Bible to follow along. Music was enjoyed by a gospel bluegrass group from Cadiz Ky.. Real people speaking about real happenings and how through the Grace of God learn to live and cope in this sometimes crazy world.

Big Rock TN. is named after a large Limestone rock that used to be on a hill by the old Methodist Church, which now is the Big Rock Church of Christ.
The rock had to be moved because of fear of falling -It was sitting on the hill behind the church and was100 feet tall and 100 feet wide, it has since been moved to a new location. There used to be a small cave opening in the rock which led to an underground lake where there were fish with no eyes.
This info taken from a book on the History of Stewart county.
