They had grown very familiar with each other. They had been selected from different backgrounds, but it didn’t take them that long to establish a rapport. From there the bond developed. It was reinforced during the rocky first months after the launch. They didn’t let the setbacks deter them. There were enough to keep their […]
Read More Changing the Line-UpThey always look to see how they can divide us. They know that if they can get us out of step with each other it will cause critical vulnerabilities. They know that the best way to bring about defeat is not to attack us directly, it’s to see if they can sneak in and sow […]
Read More We Are Marching TogetherThey set out at dawn. For a while all that was heard was the rhythmic crunching of feet on the gravel. After a while, the front man did the rally call.

Read More A March: Commitment to the CallHe was too small. That’s why they didn’t sign him. They were looking for someone big and strong. He wouldn’t cut it in this game. He didn’t grow any bigger, but someone saw what he offered how that benefits the team. The team saw it as well as he gave his all for the team […]

The standards of the club would not allow for much more of this. The owner had thought he made the right selection choosing this […]
Read More God the Builder – He Knows What He’s Building: A ParableConflict is a reality. Any effort to do something is often met with resistance. Sometimes that opposition can come from within, sometimes it can come from external sources. The conflict can appear relentless and sometimes oppressive.

Read More God the Builder – Faith For The Winning TeamThings really began to come together when the team was formed. Harry had the initial idea to do something to really help the community.
