It's not even close. By a mile, the biggest sin in my life is the amount of time and priority that I give to sports. I've said that for years. Yesterday morning, while listening to my pastor's sermon stream (because that's what we're all doing right now to get through this) I realized that statement was far more true than I had ever imagined. He so eloquently, as any man possibly could while standing in front of a camera in an empty sanctuary, posed the question, "Now that society is seemingly on pause, what are you doing with your time?"

For five days we have been without sports. Five days in March on top of that. In the state that raised me, Kentucky, March Madness is bigger than Christmas day. I would imagine if forced, many in this state would actually choose March Madness over Christmas. I, like most, have been utterly lost without sports for those five days. When I think about how we should be filling out brackets and be sitting on the edge of our seats cheering on some mid-major we've never heard of as they sink a buzzer beater over a power conference, I feel like a part of me is missing. But how many times have I not picked up a Bible for five days and not even batted an eyelash. That's a gut check, Friends. So let's use this time, however long it may be, to better ourselves. Pick up that dusty Bible or whatever has been holding back your relationships and give it your time, Folks.
