I’ve heard the saying that “God gives his toughest battles to his toughest soldiers.” But when I see the disciples that Jesus chose and suffered for His name sake, I don’t see Him choosing the “toughest soldiers”, as I learn about men and women in the past and even today who have laid down their lives for Jesus, once again I don’t see God choosing His “toughest soldiers.” But I see a strong and mighty God choosing weak men and woman, and empowering them by His Holy Spirit to face some of the toughest battles and be used for His glory.

I once thought I was a “tough soldier” until I met Jesus, I then realized that I’m so weak without Him, and apart from Jesus I can’t do anything. I need Jesus daily. The only way that I can truly become who God wants me to be and truly do what God wants me to do, is not by my power not by my might, but only by The Spirit of The Living God. Thank you Jesus.

@bschultzy We could kick Rick Warren out of the LCMS. That would get some press

Is hitting a griddy on the way out of church considered liturgical dance? Christ is Risen!

[Marc Paul @beaconbbtrack]

Using an idea from Rick Meyer (Bethel Strength/Conditioning Coach) 25 CA athletes & coaches ended practice with the “cross carry”. Each took a weight to carry the approximate distance Jesus carried His cross as He was giving His life so we can have eternal life with Him

@MrTomRad I’d ask a student to speak in my place

@bschultzy I graduated from the University of Memphis, which makes me biased against UT, but this team was overrated from the start
