God Spot
This Christian Resource Blog has been created by a group of friends from around the world. Our purpose is to provide links to useful resources, some commentary on topical or doctrinal issues, a place where anyone can come with questions and a means whereby we can share our faith. And above all, to grow and encourage each other. As Christians, we believe we bear God's image in this world, and seek to glorify God's name in this endeavour. Any Christian who wants to join with us is very welcome!

People and contrasts 

I was at a church event yesterday and the speaker was an ex-footballer, talking on many things but stressing faith and persoanal development. There were a few interesting stories from the man's time as a footballer, coach ABC commenttator and state selctor.

For a while he made a contrast between Gary Ablett and James Hird. (Geoff thinks that Hird is a great player, I don't and think he gets his free kicks easily), but the man speaking and many of us think that Ablett was the best player in living memory. Anyway James Hird is married, involved in the media, well spoken and confident without being arrogant. Gary Ablett was always paranoid about the media, shy, variable, naieve, yet excellent with children and visiting elderly and disabled people. He now lives as a recluse in the Blue Mountains, and has not taken up some offers to be in the media, Christian organisations, or again involved in Geelong Football Club.

I don't know if he is still a Christian. I am sure that he is a complex and troubled person. Are not we all? Am I right that most of are are very shy?

We need to invite more people into this group. Geoff stop claiming to be too busy, use the mouse with one hand and finish the drink with the other and listen to the radio with your ears. Michelle you do know some people. I'm in the process, Carol you too.
