Growth is the epitome of incremental change, and spiritual growth requires change. The only thing holding you back is your resistance. You cannot keep things the way they are and grow at the same time. Something has to give, and that would be your will. Be willing to let go of everything that has outlived its usefulness, says the Lord.
Romans 12:2 (NKJV)
“Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.”

Nothing scary about a Nebraska landslide the entire state is within 10 feet of either end or top to bottom elevation wise.

My brother married a girl from Lincoln,Nebraska in the early 80s. He brought home a Nebraska state one year and I thought it was funny that it showed unpaved roads and towns with populations under 200 people. It was the first time I heard of high school teams playing 7 man football games because of how small the local schools were.
Side note, the first time he brought her home to Tennessee she made him pull over, so she could go touch and feel that strange white stuff growing in those fields. It was cotton, she had never seen it.
When my brother told her what it was and that it was used to make blue jeans, she said “its not blue” we nearly die laughing when he told us about that.

I really like listening to LockedOnVols. He’s a really insightful host and I consider him a good mix of homer vs unbiased and he’s probably one of the least obnoxious hosts you could ever watch. He actually knows ball and has played it which is more than you can say for most reporters.

Beats the hell out of Booger Bailey. 🤪 Dr. J is okay too, but he spends too much time on other teams sometimes.

This video gave me chills. It was hard for me to explain to strangers the oppressive force that the noise in Neyland represents. The chorus has come back in full volume. Butch gave us glimpses, but Coach Heupel has helped Volnation find its voice and swagger again. Big thanks to the administration, coaches, and players. It takes a village to resurrect a program.

I've been doing a great job of staying chill (Summer of Stealth), but this morning I woke up with kickoff mania. This really hits the spot.

That's what I was saying during the game. Spring race attendance is such you have to think its on the chopping block.

It is constantly being altered, postponed due to rain. Really summer race is in same boat.

What can they do? I mean, was 7-8 minute drive away and it didnt rain. At all.

Hard to get to venue, that has a very high cost to run, with a 'sport' that has an ageing, stale, and increasingly boring product. Having a camper, truck, and gas is increasingly too expensive for middle class.

Hopefully those freshman WRs are ready to step up because it looks like Brazzell and Matthews already can't stay healthy.
