  • Signs and Secret Codes

    December 19, 2009

    devotional
    Set: 

    Coaches often use signals in competition to tell players which play to run, which pitch to throw, where to attack or defend, and more. It’s the best way to remind a team what they need to do without letting the other team find out.

    Not many know that a familiar Christmas carol was really a song of hidden messages. In the early 16th century, British Catholics were forbidden by law to practice their faith. Anyone caught speaking or writing of his or her faith was arrested or executed. In a time of persecution, similar to the Christians in Rome, Catholics in England went underground. They met and studied secretly and had signs to share their faith.

  • Silent Servitude

    Set: 

    Henry Ford used to dress incognito and walk throughout his factories, randomly giving $100 bills to those working hard and staying on task, even though their managers were far out of sight. As word spread about this “mystery money man,” production sales skyrocketed. By 1914, Ford held roughly 48% of the automobile industry.

  • Simple and Pure

    May 06, 2009

    article

    "Sexual temptation and purity is a man's issue, not mine."

    If you're like millions of women, that thought probably crossed your mind when you read the subhead of this article. And no wonder. On the surface, the evidence is pretty convincing.

    In today's world, physical temptations aren't often geared toward women. Strip clubs, X-rated magazines and Internet pornography mainly target men. So, it is justifiable to assume that men are the only ones who deal with sexual impurity, right?

    Wrong.

  • Simple Belief

    January 25, 2013

    devotional
    Set: 

    I remember as a child, my school bus would arrive at an early time. Once I saw the bus coming, I would walk to the end of our lane and get on it. I didn’t have to wave my arms or plead for the driver to stop. I didn’t have to beg the driver, make payment, or qualify to get on that bus. I just walked up three steps, went to the back, and sat down. I never worried about the ability of the bus to transport me, nor was I concerned about finding a seat. I didn’t think about the bus being mechanically safe or the driver being certified. All I had to do was get on. If the bus driver asked me to sit down or stop throwing things, I did. He knew what was best for me, was concerned about my safety, and was determined to help me reach my destination.

    Simply the Best

    Bryan Clay knows there are skeptics. As the gold medalist in the decathlon at the 2008 Beijing Olympics, Clay took over the title of "World's Greatest Athlete." But he realizes a title that bold only invites arguments, particularly in today's debate-driven sports culture.

  • Sin Box

    September 30, 2003

    skit

    One person is attracted to a box named “Sin”. He gets into it and is abandoned by his friend. Others come by one at a time, representing various worldly pursuits. Each one offers him their “god” to help him out of the sin box. None of them succeed except for the last “solid” Christian that shares Jesus with him. This is the only way to get out of the trap of sin.

    Sin City

    There is a plot: Mike Sanford, in his second season as head football coach at UNLV, is working long hours in an attempt to stop a streak  four straight losing seasons and transform the program into a Mountain West Conference power.

    And there is a subplot: He will do it his way. He will do it the only way that will mesh with his beliefs. He will do it by offering his players a pipeline to God.

  • Sitting on the Sidelines

    January 30, 2012

    devotional
    Set: 

    What does it mean to be sitting on the sidelines? It means we’re not in the game. In sports, there’s a limited amount of athletes who can be in a game at one time, and there are many reasons why certain ones have to sit out: they are injured, they aren’t starters, they’re lower on the depth chart, they don’t quite have the skills, or they’re just fans.

    But what about those times when we are healthy, skilled and highly capable enough to be in the game, but we still choose not to go in? This is rare, but it does happen. Maybe we’re afraid, not comfortable with a situation, or that we’re losing and don’t want to be blamed for it.
