Picture Perfect Tackle

I remember watching the 1995 Notre Dame vs. Army game. Notre Dame corner, Ivory Covington stuck Army's Tight End right at the goal line to preserve the victory. Covington was giving up 70+ pounds on the play but made a picture perfect tackle. The best tackle I have seen!

Collision Movie

On October 27 the documentary, Collision: Is Christianity Good for the World comes out. It pits Christopher Hitchens and Douglas Wilson. By all accounts it looks to be a very well done film with two men of great intellect, wit, and speech. I'm looking forward to checking this out.

Notre Dame vs. Michigan... the rivalry continues

Brothers in Arms

I just got done playing basketball over at First Friends and we have a devotional after the game. I have to give props to the guy leading it, Jonathan, for just being obedient to the Holy Spirit's leading in what to say. He talked about our struggles and at the end asked guys to open up to share what we were truly struggling with. Usually in a situation like this with a group of guys you get a vague/generalized response about what they are struggling with, if anything at all. But not this time. Guys truly were be open and honest, and really had some strong issues to deal with from a break up with a fiancee, to struggling with pornography, to being involved with two women and fathering children with them. Some very tough issues guys were dealing with and in many cases probably issues they were trying to deal with alone. It was great to be able to be the body of Christ to our Brothers and lift them up in prayer. I pray that they would remember That there is no condemnation in Christ. And they must no longer walk as Gentiles do in the darkness, but in the truth, light, and life of Jesus Christ.

Soli Deo Gloria
