March Madness Begins

Woohoo! Oh, boy! Today the Big Dance kicks off again. This is an annual event that really is like no other. There will be a few upsets; blowouts; last second 3s to win ballgames; good officiating; terrible officiating; way too many pundits on tv telling us what we just saw; "up too late at night" watching ballgames excuses; bandwidth at companies with the life sucked out of them; bragging; lying; fans way out of line; and coaches who will lose their jobs.

Just a reminder - this is just basketball. I love it, but in the overall scheme of things, it is basketball. It is a great diversion and a wonderful time of talking trash. It will also create opportunities for conversation with people we may not normally talk to. I am going to use it as a time to share Christ. To tell others not only about basketball, but to begin a conversation about someone and something more important.

I am not ashamed of the gospel. I am going to share.

Thank you so much for sharing. Sharing the love of Jesus with others is the most important thing a believer can do. God bless, Lloyd
