Odd piece of self-discovery last night

The title sounds a little melodramatic for the content of this post, but something odd did strike me last night traveling the short distance from Pizza Hut Park to the house.  By the way, it is really nice to only have to travel a few minutes to/from a DFW professional team.   The drives associated with the teams in Arlington really makes it hard.  Back to the reason I am writing this…

It hits me last night that after taking in my first FC Dallas soccer match that each of my first-time experiences with the Dallas professional sports teams have been rather unique.  How so? 

Twitter

I am trying to reintroduce a Twitter widget over on the right margin as another way to communicate thoughts/ideas throughout the day.  I hope it works… it seems to be stubborn.

I love Jesus, but I drink a little…

Soccer, or is it futbol?

So our Minister of Missional Life tells me he will win me over to the greatness of the “beautiful game.”  Of course he being English means that he is a fan of English soccer and the vaunted Manchester United.  I, however, will have to ease into this worldwide craziness where entire countries live and die on the foot of some striker.  Though I have followed soccer since high school, I recently started watching the world scene more closely.  There is something to be said about the connectivity of the sport and how it unites, or fractures depending which country you hail from, the world through a TV set.  So here is my entry into the professional side of this sport.  My hometown was recently awarded a MLS team – Seattle Sounders FC.  It is ins’t the Premiership, but it’s all we got here stateside. 

 

Transform Your World revisited

On Sunday, April 27th FBC McKinney (all locations and venues) ”left the building.”  Sometimes you just need to rattle the cage a little to remind people that the best way for us to exalt Christ is follow in his footsteps.  I am humbled to follow a great God, and encouraged that there are churches that take his challenge seriously.  

After watching the video, you may want to visit the link over to the right titled “Transforming Your World.”  You can introduce yourself to a myriad of ways that you can serve God by loving your community/nation/world. 

Where in the world…
