My small group leader said something Sunday that hit me hard. He said, "God is not interested in your spiritual life." He followed that with, "He is interested in you life." I thought he put it well. Thanks for your thoughts. They always encourage me. Dr. Reid,

Kevin, you picked up a subtle little philosophical point I like to make with an article like this. We are gnostics too much, separating the secular from the spiritual too much. Football is not the Word, but it can teach truth too! The David--someone just gave me a DVD with that movie. I hope to watch it soon. Barry--I have to meet your dad--doesn't he coach here? Eric--you always encourage me. I assume that was the youth conference I did in Texas? at any rate thanks much. Thanks guys.

I talked with a buddy this week who was at the evangelism conference where you spoke. It obviously challenged him in more ways than you can know. He told me that he's committed in a fresh way to follow Jesus even into danger! Thanks for your part in shaping God's future for so many. Eric Doc,

Didn't know if you were aware of the movie "Facing the Giants" that was coming out soon in theatres. The Kendrick brothers from Sherwood Baptist Church in Georgia (same guys that did "flywheel") made it. Steven is a friend and I am screening the film this Thursday in Pensacola. The only two things in life that can bring me to tears are Jesus and Football, and this movie has both. It could get ugly. Cool stuff about Chris M. as well. Hey, love your blog.

His testimony is amazing about the wonder of God in answering prayer and the faithfulness of a pastor. Yes Chris is a great believer.
