God has an assignment for you today. If you don’t do it, it won’t get done. Perhaps your assignment today is to encourage someone at work, thank someone who has been a friend through thick or thin, or stand up for someone who is being mistreated. Ask God to show your assignment to you so …
During the College World Series in Omaha each summer, the Board of the American Baseball Coaches Association meets. (Good place for a board meeting!) I have some close friends on the board, so during our leisure time we talk about our families and other important things as we “catch up.” What we do mostly is …
Jesus offers rest for your souls. “In these times, God’s people must trust him for rest of body and soul.”(David Wilkerson) “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and …

I played minor league baseball long before cell phones, video games and TV monitors on the bus. The long bus rides were boring to say the least. There was also a lot of “down time” each day before night games. There was no Baseball Chapel and hardly a mention of God unless His name was …
