The Mission of the Church

For those of you know me, you know I love sports and I've always been a big football fan. Just to set the record straight, I love the Dallas Cowboys and I love Notre Dame.

If You Ain't First, You're Last

I love to win. That should be evident to anyone that knows me very well. I want to win so badly that it is a severe area of weakness in my life. My younger brother even claims that when we were young, I used to sneak Monopoly cash and RISK cannons into my arsenal to secure my inevitable board game victory. I cannot comment upon such ancient past, but it is safe to say that...
