Footy

There is a phenomenon in Australia known as Footy. That is Australian Rules Football...It's here where some would call it "no rules" football. Now deep into our second season of exposure, here in Melbourne, we are beginning to feel the excitement of the sport.

The game itself is nonstop. The play is only minimally influenced by referees and an abundance of rules that slow down and stop the game. In some other sports, the role of the referee is so strong, the figure into the strategy of the game. Then there are the team theme songs that have to be heard to be appreciated.

Living is nonstop and our lives are designed for excitement and energetic engagement. Can we focus that joy collectively and team up to celebrate the source of our hope? It's Jesus. Hallelujah!

Mark 9:15 (MSG)
15 As soon as the people in the crowd saw Jesus, admiring excitement stirred them. They ran and greeted him.
