@GnosisWolf @TheEXECUTlONER_ I remember that wooden pegboard as well.

Twice a year in gym class when I was a kid. 👉 Only a few boys couldn’t do it in each class. 👉👉 Now only a few boys could. Why?

This year has really grown my faith and strengthened it beyond anything I could’ve hoped for. And there are three people I have to thank for that. They know who they are. I told my kids a different Easter story this morning. One that I think really matters. One that reflects my journey this year. And I think it made as lasting of an impression as anything can at their age. I didn’t tell them about the event. I told them about the person. The most powerful thing about the character of Christ isn’t His miracles. It’s not even the resurrection itself. It’s that He knew exactly what was coming and went anyway. He knew about the betrayal before He sat down to dinner with Judas. He washed His betrayer’s feet anyway. He knew Peter would deny Him three times and still looked at him with love. He knew the cross was waiting and still walked toward Jerusalem, still healed people on the way, still stopped for blind Bartimaeus on the road, still wept over a city that would crucify Him within the week. That’s the most staggering moral courage the world has ever seen. He noticed the woman no one else saw. He stopped for the man others stepped around. He sat with their grief, touched the sick, welcomed the ones who’d been told they didn’t belong. He didn’t perform acts of kindness. He WAS kindness. He forgave those who put Him on the cross. He offered a dying criminal hope. He looked after His mother. Right up to the end, His attention was on other people. That’s who walked out of that tomb. Romans 5:8 says it plainly, “God demonstrates His own love for us in this: while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Not when we were ready. Not when we were good enough. While we were still a mess. He didn’t die for the people who had it together. He died for the ones who didn’t. He loved us so much that even death couldn’t hold a love like that. Following Christ isn’t something that happens in your head. You can know every fact about Him, tell every miracle, every teaching, every detail of the resurrection and still miss the whole point. Following Him happens in your heart. It happens the moment you stop studying Him from a distance and understand He’s the person you surrender to. The only One who has the power to save you. We’re not saved by how hard we try. We’re not saved by being good enough or consistent enough or having our lives together enough. We’re saved by grace alone. God’s grace. Given freely. Completely unearned. Wrapped in a love we’ll never truly understand. One I don’t think we can even articulate with words. But grace isn’t a pardon. It’s an invitation. It’s a superpower. When you open your heart to Christ, when you truly surrender to Him as your Lord and Savior, something happens that you can’t do on your own. The Holy Spirit moves in you and He changes you forever. We don’t change to earn grace. We change because we already have it. The empty tomb isn’t just the ending of a story. It’s the beginning of one. He saw everything we are. The good, bad and the ugly. He walked toward the cross anyway. Eyes open. With a love no one and nothing could shake. And then He walked out of that grave to come find us. You don’t have to have it all together. You just have to be honest. In the quiet place in your heart, not your head all you have to do is surrender. Say yes to the One who already said yes to you before you even had to ask. I see today as a day of second chances. I asked myself during my morning Bible reading, what did I want the people who knew me to remember about me when I’m no longer here. For me the answer was two fold. I want them to remember me for my love of my faith and my family. That’s what matters most to me. That’s what I will double down on this next year. We all have a chance to live in accordance with God’s will for us. We just have to listen to Him to know what that is. He is risen. And that changes everything. Happy Easter Everyone. ❤️

@Biggamebobby He will be missed. He was great at what he did.

Lord God, You see the fear inside me. You know the thoughts that won’t stop and the worries I cannot control. Please calm my heart. Remove the fear that steals my peace. Replace my anxiety with Your strength. When I feel weak, remind me that You are with me. When my mind imagines the worst, help me trust You with my future. Give me courage to face what I’m afraid of. Give me wisdom to make good decisions. And give me peace that stays, even when situations don’t change. I place my fear in Your hands. Fill me with faith instead of fear. Amen.

Heavenly Father, Thank You for this day. Please forgive my sins and wash my heart clean. Give me peace in my mind, strength in my body, and hope in my spirit. Heal every pain inside me and remove fear and worry. Bless my family and protect us from all harm. Guide my steps and help me trust You in everything. In Jesus’ name, Amen. 🙏

I asked Liam Coen to give me a story on Baker Mayfield, a guy he's coached in two places (LA and Tampa Bay), for the pod. Pure appreciation. "Baker is a dog. That word gets tossed around a bunch in our profession, but he's a real one. When you talk about a G, he's a G..."

Blast from the past — the arrival of Coach Bowden at FSU 50 years ago!

What is this type of build called

RT if football has challenged, shaped, and blessed you in greater ways than most will ever know!

For more than 20 years I put my hands up in celebration on the gridiron. Now, I put my hands up to the One that gave me all my talents and abilities — the King of my life, Jesus Christ. I’ve never claimed to be perfect, but my aim is for the direction of my life to honor Christ and I pray my faith increases. So I do want to wish you all a Merry Christmas, whether you’re solo, with family, or friends, and if you haven’t done so, put your faith in Him who can save, Jesus Christ. Ephesians 2:8-9 [8] For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, [9] not a result of works, so that no one may boast.

@Buccaneers Crap… fix it guys.

Final.
