We gave every kid a trophy. Built platforms around the selfie. Created a culture of "Main Character Syndrome."

Result? The most affirmed generation in history is also the most anxious, lonely, and depressed.

More self-focus. More emptiness. There's a reason for that. 👇

Poor Americans who attend church regularly are happier than rich Americans who never go.

Behavioral scientist William von Hippel thought he'd made a coding error. He hadn't.

"Regularly attending services has a bigger impact on your happiness than wealth," he writes. "Money buys a fair bit of happiness but connection gives you more bang for the buck."

What's happening? Rich people already have most of what money buys. What they lack is what churches provide for free: weekly, repeated contact with people who know your name.

Von Hippel is direct about the cost: "I suspect that wealthy, educated urbanites are paying a steeper price for their lifestyle than they realize. Many of us have paid too great a price in connection for our increased autonomy."

Nick Saban: "We need to come up with a system... to allow student athletes in all sports, including women's and olympic sports, to enhance their quality of life, while going to college — but still provide opportunity to advance themselves beyond their athletic career."

[Brett Favre @BrettFavre]

For more than 20 years I put my hands up in celebration on the gridiron.

Now, I put my hands up to the One that gave me all my talents and abilities — the King of my life, Jesus Christ.

I’ve never claimed to be perfect, but my aim is for the direction of my life to honor Christ and I pray my faith increases.

So I do want to wish you all a Merry Christmas, whether you’re solo, with family, or friends, and if you haven’t done so, put your faith in Him who can save, Jesus Christ.

Ephesians 2:8-9

[8] For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, [9] not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

[Joel Bryant - HighSchoolOT @JoelBryantHSOT]

Just amazed by Coach Habich's Watauga offense. They run a little bit of everything, and do it flawlessly. The OL, QB, wings, receivers, tight ends, everyone is always on the same page. Their practice habits must be insanely good. https://t.co/eSqTYjHuds

Moving to eight classifications opens the door for smaller communities across North Carolina to experience games like this.

Watauga has been dominant in the High Country for years, but could never quite get past the Marvin Ridge's, Reagan's, and Cox Mill's of the old 4A West.

Tonight was their first trip to volleyball regionals since 1995 and 1998.

An epic performance in an epic match.

Watauga's Emma Pastusic helped the Pioneers punch their first ticket to the NCHSAA volleyball state championship since 1998 with a five-set win over Kings Mountain in the 6A West Regional Final.

The Pioneers take their 27-game win streak into Raleigh on Saturday against J.H. Rose.
