I just finished speaking to Dave Milam, planting pastor of Kinetic Church in Charlotte, NC. I first came across Kinetic Church’s website a couple of years ago as I was investigating various church websites. It was really intriguing and different and caught my attention. Over the last couple of years, I drop [...]

The Final Four is here and the final standings in all brackets are up for grabs.
Here at the Coach’s Corner, my offspring and I still have positions 1,2,3. But that will all shift depending on the winners in these next three games.
In my Blogging Church Planter’s Bracket, I’m stuck in the 30s, but can still rise [...]

I went over to the church this afternoon, and as I pulled back into the neighborhood, for the first time this year, I saw the unmistakable signs of life. Trees and shrubs everywhere with those ever so small red tips. There is life there. It’s coming. What has been dormant is now springing back.
I feel [...]

My bracket took a hit this afternoon as Texas looked like they were slow-dancing while Memphis was doing the jitterbug….all over their face. That hurt me but if Kansas wins, I’ll still have 3 of the final 4. As much as I want my bracket to stay as strong as it can, I can honestly [...]

But for Today…….

Tournament madness resumes tonight as they begin to whittle the Sweet 16 down to the Elite Eight. I’ve still got a fighting chance in both brackets I’m in, mostly because I’ve still got 7 out of 8 teams left that I have picked for the Elite Eight. If they hold serve, I’ll have a good [...]

Back on 3/15 I blogged a bit about a tornado that just missed my mother and step-father’s home in S.C. Apparently, their particular area was the hardest hit in the county, which makes it all the more amazing their home didn’t get destroyed. They had many people come out to help with the initial removal [...]

I’ll have some thoughts about Easter and what this day has been for us and for me later tonight in Sunday Night Lights. But I thought I’d add a quick update or two on the tournament.
I woke up from my nap just in time to see Davidson put the finishing touches on Georgetown…(take that Mark [...]

The first day of March Madness brought few surprises….which was NOT GOODfor me. I have come to count on upsets as the bread and butter of the tournament and they are part of my picks. The first round of games didn’t work out to well for me, but I moved up the charts in the [...]

I LOVE the NCAA tournament. I’m a competetion nut. I love it when people strive, give their best, and let the chips fall where they may. Naturally, I pick a bracket for March Madness. Now, I not only enjoy the competition on the court, I enjoy the competition of coming up with the best bracket. [...]
