A Very Special Football Game

I hope you will watch this amazing video clip that my friend Johnny Kincaid sent to me.

I was incredibly touched by it--in fact I was wiping away tears. What the Faith Lions fans did that night is such a powerful testimony of the Gospel. Jesus Christ came, lived among us, died , and rose from the dead so that we can have a fresh start.

May we all be cheerleaders for those who need God's grace!

By the way--I know that my friend Johnny is. You see he has a heart for prison ministry and leads Kairos weekends where prisoners can encounter the love of Jesus.

Matthew 24:31-40

31 "The Son of Man will come in all his glory. All the angels will come with him. Then he will sit on his throne in the glory of heaven. 32 All the nations will be gathered in front of him. He will separate the people into two groups. He will be like a shepherd who separates the sheep from the goats. 33 He will put the sheep to his right and the goats to his left.

34 "Then the King will speak to those on his right. He will say, 'My Father has blessed you. Come and take what is yours. It is the kingdom prepared for you since the world was created. 35 I was hungry. And you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty. And you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger. And you invited me in. 36 I needed clothes. And you gave them to me. I was sick. And you took care of me. I was in prison. And you came to visit me.'

37 "Then the people who have done what is right will answer him. 'Lord,' they will ask, 'when did we see you hungry and feed you? When did we see you thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you as a stranger and invite you in? When did we see you needing clothes and give them to you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?'

40 "The King will reply, 'What I'm about to tell you is true. Anything you did for one of the least important of these brothers of mine, you did for me.'
