my few ideas
Carol my agreement too on your children taking part in church, to me it would be delightful. Tell them we all are pleased, and God will be pleased if they do their best.
I'm pleased we have drifted off football, but thanks for the comments on Gary Ablett, Michele. I always felt sorry for him. I didn't know any of them well when I lived in Warragul, but I know (1) they were considered a wild bunch and (2) that Gary and his brother were sent away by Hawthorn. To be a great footballer and a Christian, and shy, to be called 'god' many times every month by the media must be distressing. Madness on the part of the media just trying to be smart, insencere having a 'dig' at the faith, and would it happen in a Moslem country. Hardly!
Well the ups and downs of Gary Ablett show that no one is perfect, and as I have suggested before, people are complex.
So I'll bring the discussion back to football saying its a shame that it gets so much media, and the huge payments these guys get, and many other sportsmen get, that top sports are industries of entertainment, while medical reasearchers receive little in money and praise. Is the world crazy, definitely.
I have invited a few people I know to join the group, and I have promised the Americans and the English two, that we will try hard to understand their accents.
