Are you a Champion?
"No surrender, no retreat we take the battlefield over EVERY time!" Wow. What a statement! Taken from the Los Angeles Lakers' Ron Artest's new single, "Champion", which he made sure he 'shouted-out' during his post game interview, this is a mantra that I am definitely adopting. Today marks the first day of summer and what I see as a season for champions. Summer, the end the NBA season, the peak of the World Cup, the time of year where ...

Keep Moving Forward
"No man having put his hand to the plow, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom..." Luke 9:62
One of my all time favorite movies is Meet the Robinsons.

You are who you SAY you are!
It snowed last week here in Georgia. For many, this was exciting. For us it was…bittersweet. My daughter was scheduled to play her first basketball playoff game. Due to the weather, their game was cancelled. Not only was her first playoff game canceled, but so was her season. The league decided to only allow the top two teams to play for the championship.
Jasmine had just written and recorded her I AM statements a couple of nights before we received this disheartening ...
