Didn’t know that about you. Where did you grow up?

Saw we've gotten some recruits now. 4 star safety and a 3 star OT looks like, did I miss anyone else?


I guess I missed the BOOMs

Back home near Jacksonville in school. Idk wtf im doing with my life lmao

I have a question in all seriousness, were u as negative about the future of ur band and music as u are on here or is that just a Vol thing?
I'm not being a smartazz here I'm really curious. I truly hope it's just a schtick for Vol Nation..

Yea they was a package deal

I'm trying to remember us ever getting guys out of St. Louis, East or otherwise. Was this a new focus area, or just a one-off situation?

It really is. If you look at contemporary worship songs now and then look through a book of hymns, the differences are...noticeable. To say the least. Sounding like they were written by children is an excellent description.

Contemporary appeals to the emotions. Hymns appeal to the mind. People are different in which way gets to their heart. But the vast majority of contemporary is really juvenile. Then occasionally a song like "He Is" by Chris Tomlin will be realeased. Still I prefer hymns being sung by an entire congregation. That appeals to my mind and emotions and gets to my heart to worship.

The Rivals guy backed off his commitment announcement this weekend. Seems like it’s a silent. I’m still rolling with King. He will take those two more OV and then announce to us that last week of June.

He said the kid pushed it back. It’s not king

Never mind just saw Prices comment... saying it wasn’t king.

 

[Jack Burton]

Majority of Christians

I should clarify. I meant Bible reading, doctrinally sound Christians. Scripturally based theology not feelings theology.

Rybka maybe... he was in town and camped yesterday. Only other realistic option that was in town this weekend that “would make vol fans happy”.

As long as they dont take the recruits to a contemporary Christian concert we have a shot.

I see Mehlen is keeping that tradition alive

Has Youtube purged a bunch of videos?

The other day I tried to find some old early 2000s Antonio Bryant highlights (there used to be a ton you YT where he routinely abused Fred Smoot of the Redskins) and found nothing. And I just tried searching for Larry Allen highlights and there was only two - one being his HOF induction speech.

I know the NFL is really particular about their stuff, so it wouldn't surprise me if they got some taken down for copyright stuff.

I don't disagree with the sentiment, but the whole "Bible reading, doctrinally sound" thing must have been real tough for most of Christian history where the majority of people didn't own a Bible and couldn't read it if they did.

I sort of like Angel Armies by Chris and Alive by Hillsong Young and Free but my all time favorite in the contemporary genre is probably Angels watching over me by Amy Grant. I still get an adrenaline rush when "the chains that bound the man of God just opened up and fell and running to his people before the break of day...."

Of course my all time favorite song period is Händel's Messiah - Hallelujah but since that was composed in 1741 I'm unsure if it qualifies as contemporary.

Kumar Rocker throws a no hitter with 19 Ks in the super regional for Vandy.

Holy sheet.

It’s dreadful

I agree I refer to modern Christian music as 7/11 music 7 words repeated 11 times

Sad but true. Worst part is many push the "you're not a Christian if you don't listen to this music" narrative

That’s perfect

Kind of par for the course for a lot of Christians across the board..."you're not if you dont do...."

Sure it was. It’s why the Catholic Church reigned for so long. Then the printing press comes along, people start reading it for themselves, and they collectively say, “Hey, wait a sec.”

That’s why it’s so surprising to see these almost cult like groups gain strong footholds in Christianity. People aren’t reading their Bibles anymore, they’re content with someone just preaching the pseudo word.
