How is Travis Hunter nor Sanders not even included in the Heisman race???? The Buffs are a 4 man team and Travis counts as two!!!! They have Travis, Sanders, and Horn! Nobody else and yet 4-1. I'm confused as how these two are nowhere in the conversation

The pastor says they sit front and center. The gay boys. Sometimes they hold hands. And some folks have said he should address the issue. But the pastor tells me he doesn’t know what to say.

There is the couple who are pregnant and not married. Walks in shame as her father a “Man of God”, physically slaps her legs while she is having morning sickness and the Boyfriend who is not wanting to marry her. But the pastor tells me he doesn’t know what to say.

And then there’s the man who sneaks in the back door. Fresh off the street. After the service starts. And leaves before altar call. The people sitting close complain about how bad he smells. Of beer and smoke and sweat. But the pastor tells me he doesn’t know what to say.

And then there’s the young mama who wears dirty clothes and lets her four children come in and eat all the donuts and drink all the watered-down juice. Some church staff say they “…eat like little pigs. Like they haven’t eaten in weeks.” While the Mama just stands there and lets them. And the elders say something must be done and said. But the pastor tells me he doesn’t know what to say.

And there’s the w***e sitting among the faithful. And everybody knows her. She sits with a painted-up face, cheap perfume, and a broken heart. And those who sit close, well, they all treat her for what they think she is. And at the last staff meeting, her name came up. Something must be done about her. But the pastor tells me he doesn’t know what to say.

The pastor is a good man. Holy and just. And he wants to do the “right and loving” thing. And he wants to “look like Jesus”. And he asks me if I have any thoughts on anything he could say.

Yes, sweet Pastor, I do.

Start with this and say it Louder than any other words:
“Welcome to Church. This is a place of love and hope and safety and forgiveness. There will be food for the hungry. Living water for the thirsty. We are so glad you are here. You are invited. You are loved. Come on in—we’ve been waiting on you. Welcome here. We are the church.” Say that. To the called and to the called-out. To the leaders and the greeters. To the dirty and the clean. We are all the same. We are.
May we blow the dust of religion out of our souls and choose affection instead. May our words and actions and reactions be a sanctuary for all.

Jesus broke many laws to love. So, Jesus, be our voice. Be the only words we should ever speak.I believe this with all my heart. Years ago we were kinder. Everybody looked out for one another. We need to go back to that. It takes us all. We gotta do better at looking out for each other instead of breaking each other down.

I'm going to make a bet, that out of my family and friends, less than 4 will take the time to put this on their wall. 💚Who Are My four?

Black History Month! I will be posting for this last week in Feb. But I will not give links. The reason is that I need you parents and your children to look it up. They want to take black history out of schools, but we can give our kids way more history than the schools ever will. ( Please tell your kids and grands about the PDR swim team out of Phily) which is my first history fact! Coach Ellis was a man who cared about the kids and overcame his past. Please leave your comments after you research. They even made a movie about it. (sorry but I can't remember the name of the movie)

💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵💵The University of Colorado's recent report found that media coverage during this football season alone is worth over $90MILLION DOLLARS for just three games on a 5-year deal.

$90 MILLION DOLLARS!!!!!💵
•
When you factor in ticket sales, merchandise, sponsorships, enrollment boosts, and more, Deion's $29.5 million contract seems like a bargain. Some might even argue he'll be worth over $1 billion to the university.
