SUNDAY SERVICES:

Last week, standing in the rain, I watched a young man work mightily to instill the basic skills and commitments of world-class soccer players   into the rain-soaked heads of eight small children. They were all much more excited about playing in the rain. Much more excited than the  line of parents waiting for practice to come to its soggy end. Soccer practice is new to me. Watching practice is new to me. There is much to learn.
