Jesus died and rose again to give you eternal life. I'm a husband and a father. I'm here to discuss Houston Dynamo FC and other Houston sports. #Holditdown
The experts like @HoustonDynamo right now. Every broadcast I hear the commentators remark in how our roster has underperformed to this point and that we're built for a deep playoff run. We'll see.
@GlennDavisSoc I've been a fan since the move from San Jose. I loved games in The Rob, and at 36, I've been going to games as often as I can for half of my life. I've watched every game either in-person or on TV (live or recorded). I saw them beat DC in RFK Stadium in 2014. Never season tix tho
If you are from Houston and want to keep following soccer after the World Cup, I’ve been following the Dynamo the past few seasons and now is a great time to start following.

@DrewJohnson23@funnydanny Ridiculous take. Since when is sliding in OVER THE TOP OF THE BALL and cleating someone in the calf at full speed not a immediate red? Since before I was born, dude. That's a straight red all day long for the past 40 years at least. Not even debatable, at any level.
@funnydanny Coming in over the ball is by definition reckless and constitutes as serious foul play for endangering the safety of an opponent. If you slide in over the top of the ball studs up you should expect to be sent off every time. It doesn't look as bad as some challenges, but it is.
@EverythingRebs Yeah, if you challenge studs up and especially if you come in OVER THE BALL - coming in over the ball sort of thrusts you studs up even higher into an opponents leg. Call it an aggravating factor when judging endangering the safety of an opponent/serious foul play.
@DavidFischer I haven't decided. I've been "convinced" of different viewpoints at different times, but right now I'm more concerned with what God is doing with me and my family now. I'm eager to see what happens when we all arrive at those moments in the future.
Yes. Hardship is normal for Christians. I think pain is a universal language that helps us fulfill the great commission. God often uses our trials not only to grow our faith, but to equip us to serve others and share the gospel.
"God comforts us... so that we may be able to comfort those who are in any affliction." (2 Cor. 1:4)
@churchtalkative Discipleship is a piece of the process that is sanctification. This process is never complete THIS side of eternity. It's like accelerating toward the speed of light. You can never achieve the speed of light, but there's no limit to the amount you may accelerate towards it.
@churchtalkative I know at this stage of my life that real faith/belief produces discipleship. Professions of truth describe what's real for someone when they can't help but live the truth out. Real submission to God's will produces discipleship. When said but not believed - no discipleship...
@ShaneSchaetzel God's Word defines itself as the authority over all matters pertaining to God and His Church. Respectfully, I am a subject of Jesus, not the Catholic Church. Scripture defines this clearly for me. To deny it for any institution would be to deny the Faith.
@ShaneSchaetzel Catholicity is what us Protestants crave. We want unity among all true followers of Jesus. What we cannot abide is stumbling blocks placed between the hearts of the spiritually hungry and our Lord. Jesus resides in the hearts of some, whether Catholic, Orthodox or Protestant...
@gonefishin1948 ...and extra-biblical docrine and theology, preventing a clear understanding of Jesus' role in our lives and how we receive grace through faith in Him. This becomes problematic for SOME Catholics salvation. Not all.
@gonefishin1948 ...and not the denomination of the church we attend or the more nuanced doctrinal identifiers associated with that denomination. Many Catholics have genuinely made Jesus the Lord of their lives and likewise are fellow Christians alongside us. Some are bogged down in legalism...
