When Chris Tomlin discovered the earliest known Christian hymn, one thing stunned him: the first worship song we have “has nothing to do about us” and is all about the glory of God. He explains why that changes how we think about modern worship and the songs we sing in church today.

POWERFUL: Over 30 #Patriots & #Texans players gathered together on the field after the game got down on a knee & PRAYED TO GOD.
Star quarterbacks Drake Maye and CJ Stroud put everything aside to praise the Lord & thank Him for their blessings.

Not to pile on, seriously, but to make a theological point I feel VERY important. When Philip Yancey writes: "My conduct defied everything that I believe about marriage..." I think it's important to say that in fact he did NOT believe what he claims about marriage. Isn't that the real point here? Evangelicals focus so much on "faith" and "belief" that they have forgotten that HOW WE LIVE shows what we REALLY believe. This is part of the subject of my book LETTER TO THE AMERICAN CHURCH. The idea that I can claim I believe all kinds of things while BEHAVING as though I don't shows I don't ACTUALLY believe those things. We can focus TOO MUCH on moral behavior, but we have for some time focused TOO LITTLE on moral behavior. We've become so obsessed with preaching about "grace" and "faith" and against "works righteousness" that we've forgotten that FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD. American Christians need to understand that our behavior matters to GOD and that saying we believe something while acting as though we don't means we do NOT have the faith we claim. The American church NEEDS to address this issue.

To God be the Glory in victory and defeat! Blessed to have this opportunity to glorify Him again! Gotta keep pushing 🙏🏾Matthew 6:33-34
But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

NEW: Jets QB Justin Fields speaks about his faith in Jesus Christ after being benched, says he is going to use the opportunity to spread God's Word.
"I've always asked God to give me an opportunity and a platform to spread His Word and sometimes it doesn't play out the way you always plan it."
"I think the position I'm in right now is a great opportunity to spread that message."
"God's been with me through the ups and downs and, I'm probably at a low right now..."
"My faith is so rooted in Christ to where nothing can break me..."
"As far as my job goes here, I'm gonna be the same. I'm going to come to work the same ... And again, just try to continue to spread that message of how good God is..."

Philippians 1:6: “He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.” Birthdays can be milestones in a life of purpose and continuing faith

Parents,
The more you complain about the coach, teammates or the refs, the more your Child feels complaining is okay.
The more you rationalize not competing or overcoming mistakes and lack of discipline, the more your Child accepts indifference and lack of responsibility
TEACH!

The two biggest roadblocks we see keeping players from reaching their potential...
1. Immaturity - reacting emotionally, avoiding responsibility, and lacking the discipline to stay focused
2. Insecurity - lacking the confidence to fully show up

Blake Butler, a @CofCBaseball great already etched himself in the record books. In 2017, he played 9 positions in 9 innings of a pro game.
Now, he's the manager of the Greensboro Grasshoppers. A team that just pitched 2 perfect games in 9 days!
Amazing. Perfection- attainable and repeatable under Blake Butler. His story.
