On this episode of Stay Ready: The Podcast, Matt and Scott sit down with critically acclaimed producer Rob Harvell. Rob a Laurinburg, N.C. native picked up his ABC's thanks to Sports Illustrated, The Sporting News and Stock Car Racing magazines.   Rob begin his career producing Wendell Scott: A Race Story, and went on to produce other projects, including the entire first season of ESPN's “SEC Storied,” which included Herschel (Herschel Walker), 40 Minutes of Hell (Nolan Richardson), The Play That Changed College Football (1992 SEC Championship Football Game), and Lolo (Lolo Jones). Rob would add to his production portfolio with an array of other SEC Storied films. Among them were Miracle 3, The Book of Manning (Manning football family), Tigers United (Michael Sam), Dominique Belongs to Us (Dominique Wilkins), Thunder and Lightning (Will Clark, Rafael Palmeiro), Wuerffel's Way (Danny Wuerffel), Miracles on the Plains (2013 Auburn Football), The Bo You Don't Know (Bo Rein), Before They Were Cowboys (Jimmy Johnson, Jerry Jones, Barry Switzer), Stacy's Gift (Stacy Lewis), The Walkoff, and No Experience Required (Texas A&M 12th Man Kickoff Team).The guys open up the episode getting to know Rob's backstory, upbringing and what got him involved in producing and how he got his break into the business. Rob goes into detail about his all time love of sports that started when he was a small child and how one of his teachers told his parents he was watching too much television for his age. This leads the guys to talk about how that affected him and what happened because of that. After this discussion they transition to the topic of college and how he randomly chose his major (communications) while at Appalachian State because he felt it would be easy and would "get him on tv one day." Next, they get into the story about him getting his first Internship at Nascar after his guidance counselor told him he would not qualify due to his low GPA. He decided to reach out to the company himself and went in for an interview and crushed it resulting in him being hired. After interning there for a bit, he is given the opportunity to produce his first documentary. This documentary is really what gets everything going for Rob. He instantly falls in love with the idea of producing. From there, he leaves NASCAR and goes on to produce The Book of Manning about Peyton and his family, a Bigfoot documentary, several shows for Dana White and the UFC and much more.The guys continue the conversation learning more about all the documentaries Rob has produced/ been a part of, some of his other interests, what he's hoping to do in the future with producing and so much more. We hope y'all find this episode of Stay Ready: The Podcast interesting and informative! See you next week!

2-18-2023 Passed Ball Show. John opens up this program by explaining, in detail, why the Baseball Hall of Fame has failed both the players it has held out and the players that are being selected to enter. John claims that the essential ignorance of an entire generation of top baseball players has caused a ripple effect of campaigns for very good players to get in due to a resurgence of popularity. John also mentions the fact that the Baseball Hall of Fame can never be looked at as the place for the "elite of the elite" for two reasons: 1. being that all time greats like Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Joe Jackson, Pete Rose, and Rafael Palmeiro are NOT in. and 2. being the fact that good players that needed strong contingents (either through the inside of MLB or through online campaigns) like Scott Rolen, Harold Baines, Tony Oliva are now in. He also points out that baseball thinks racism belongs in its Hall of Fame over steroids, which put that way, is a shitty stance to take. John mourns the passing of long time MLB catcher and even longer time broadcaster Tim McCarver, whom he considers a mentor. John describes what he learned from McCarver that has become part of him. Former MLB pitcher Brian BuBois, another former PBS guest, passed away this week as well. In this day's "Saving Sports History," John talks about the before mentioned racist MLB Commissioner Kenesaw Mountain Landis and the day he resigned as a US Judge, a 33 year old just minted MLB Baseball Owner, a 15 year old baseball pitcher, seven (7) Daytona 500's, including the one responsible for the death of Dale Earnhardt, George Gipp, Enzo Ferrari, Joe Gordon, Manny Mota, Pat Bowlen, Andy Moog, Gary Reasons (PBS guest), Alexander Mogiliny, James J Corbett, Harry Caray, and Eddie Mathews.

Marietta Daily Journal Podcast
Fred McGriff is a Hall of Famer

Kennesaw's downtown thronged with thousands Saturday afternoon as the city kicked off the holiday season with a parade down Main Street. The procession featured marching bands, twirlers, and floats from local bands, along with Santa Claus himself perched on the bed of a pickup truck. The parade also featured businesses, such as Whataburger, and the local Scout troops. Fred McGriff is finally a Hall of Famer. McGriff was voted in Sunday by the Contemporary Era committee, which was formed by the Hall to consider players who starred since 1980 and were not elected in the annual voting by the Baseball Writers' Association of America. McGriff, 59, hit 493 home runs during a 19-year controversy-free career that included 13 seasons of 27 or more homers, seven straight top-10 league MVP finishes and a World Series championship with the Atlanta Braves. He had two stints with his hometown Tampa Bay Rays, as well as time with the Toronto Blue Jays, San Diego Padres, Chicago Cubs and Los Angeles Dodgers. McGriff was elected unanimously by the 16-member committee. He was the only player elected from an eight-man ballot that also included Albert Belle, Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Don Mattingly, Dale Murphy, Rafael Palmeiro and Curt Schilling. During 10 years on the Baseball Writers' Association of America ballot, McGriff never came close to the 75% threshold needed for election, surpassing 24 percent only in 2019, his final year of eligibility, when he got to 39.8. That lack of support was a source of considerable frustration for his supporters, who felt he was being overlooked and even penalized in comparison to players who were connected to the use of performance-enhancing drugs. McGriff chose to not say much, often just saying that he was happy to be considered.   By the time early voting ended Friday, nearly one in every three Cobb County voters had already cast a ballot in the runoff election between U.S. Senator Raphael Warnock, a Democrat, and Republican challenger Herschel Walker. More than 155,510 Cobb voters, or 30.4%, have voted early in person or by absentee ballot, according to data from the Secretary of State's office. That turnout rate surpasses the state at-large, where 1,852,593 voters, or 26.4%, have cast a ballot. Early voting totals in Cobb weren't as high as before the November 8 general election, but voters had far less time to cast a ballot — one week before the runoff, as opposed to three weeks before the general election. That resulted in single-day totals that blew past the previous election. Last Monday, for example, saw over 27,000 voters cast a ballot in person, resulting in long lines at some Cobb polling locations. On Friday, the county said 29,699 people voted early. By way of comparison, the largest single-day total in the general election, which saw short wait times, was around 14,600. In Cobb, the huge early voting turnout was overshadowed Friday by a legal dispute over absentee ballots. The American Civil Liberties Union and Southern Poverty Law Center sued the county, alleging that delays in ballot mailing caused by the Thanksgiving holiday had disenfranchised voters. After hours of negotiation, Superior Court Judge Kellie Hill signed off on an agreement to extend the absentee ballot deadline by three days — to December 9 — for any voter whose absentee ballot application was accepted on or before Nov. 26. Ballots in that category must be postmarked by Tuesday, December 6, which is Election Day.   Three players scored in double figures, and Kell used an opportunistic defense to keep McEachern at bay and win their matchup 67-62 in the Tournament of Champions Showcase at Wheeler High School on Saturday.  The Longhorns, the Number 1 team in Class AAAAA, trailed only twice the entire game -- at 8-6 in the first quarter, and then 40-39 in the third -- and found a way to win despite missing 7-foot center Peyton Marshall. Coach Jermaine Sellers said Marshall could have played if it was a playoff game, but the team did not want to take the chance this early in the season. To offset his absence, Kell played the entire game with a added sense of urgency, grabbing nearly every loose ball, getting hands in passing lanes and creating steals. Each time McEachern, which was playing without starting guard Moses Hipps, seemed to get back into the game, Kell would force a turnover to two and push its lead back to four or five points, which it was the majority of the second half. The Longhorns needed to do all those things to help offset the performance of the Indians' Ace Bailey. The 6-foot-9 junior forward, a day after scoring 34 points against South Cobb, he kept McEachern, ranked third in Class AAAAAAA, in the game with a 30-point performance. The Cobb Galleria and Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre released its annual report this week, and business for both is back in full swing. For the first time since 2019, both venues were financially in the black. That was made possible due to the full return of live entertainment and events at two of Cobb's largest and busiest destinations. The Galleria hosted 187 events, up from less than 100 events in its previous fiscal year. Approximately 229,000 people visited the venue. CEPAC, meanwhile, held 178 events and brought in 180,000 guests after hosting next to no events during the depths of the pandemic. The Galleria posted an operating profit of just shy of $2 million, while the Galleria hit $3.53 million, the latter topping its 2019 numbers by roughly $750,000. The authority also boasted its best sales tax proceeds since before the pandemic. After generating about $1.7 million last year, the authority reported its venues generated $7.5 million in revenue from sales, liquor, hotel-motel and other taxes. Wheeler opened the second half on a 10-2 run to build a double-digit lead and gradually pulled away from a pesky Kimball High School from Texas squad 77-61 in the final game of the Tournament of Champions Showcase at Wheeler High School on Saturday. Kimball kept the game close throughout the first half and trailed only 30-28 at the break, so coach Larry Thompson said it was important to get off to a good start in the third quarter. The main big guy in the middle was 6-foot-9 forward Arrinten Page. The USC signee took full advantage, finishing the night with a team-high 21 points, including six dunks, along with 12 rebounds. Leading 41-34 a 3-pointer and a dunk by Jelani Hamilton, who finished with 12 points, pushed the Wildcats' lead to 46-34. Back-to-back dunks by Page late in the quarter gave Wheeler, the Number 1 team in Class AAAAAAA, a 50-40 advantage before five straight points by T'Johnn Brown, who led all scorers with 24 points, cut the lead to five to start the fourth quarter.  Isaiah Collier, who had 16 points, eight assists and five rebounds, finally found his groove in the final 8 minutes. He opened the quarter with a driving layup, got fouled, and made the free throw. He added four more points as the game came to a close, but he set up three of Page's four dunks down the stretch with some big-time assists. A Page dunk and a 3-pointer by Hamilton pushed the lead back into double-digits at 65-54. A dunk and a putback by Ricky McKenzie made the lead 13 at the 2:48 mark, and two more dunks by Page put Wheeler up 75-61.  Josh Hill scored nine points and McKenzie added eight.   #CobbCounty #Georgia #LocalNews      -            -            -            -            -            The Marietta Daily Journal Podcast is local news for Marietta, Kennesaw, Smyrna, and all of Cobb County.             Subscribe today, so you don't miss an episode! MDJOnline            Register Here for your essential digital news.            https://www.chattahoocheetech.edu/  https://cuofga.org/ https://www.esogrepair.com/ https://www.drakerealty.com/           Find additional episodes of the MDJ Podcast here.             This Podcast was produced and published for the Marietta Daily Journal and MDJ Online by BG Ad Group   For more information be sure to visit https://www.bgpodcastnetwork.com        See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As winter approaches, the sports scene always stays hot as I bring to you the latest episode with all that's going on in the sports universe. On deck: (3:25) After briefly discussing Anthony Davis's 55 point barrage as the Lakers try to get back to .500, I kick off the podcast with an NFL Week 13 that had some intriguing matchups, but for the most part, left us wanting more. I'll get into my winners (i.e. Baltimore & San Francisco) and losers (i.e. Patriots, Commanders & Giants) of the week as the playoff picture starts to get a little clearer as we're into the month of December. (26:07) Just when we thought that USC & TCU would win their conference championship games and solidify their spot in the college football playoff, they both lose (USC badly and inexcusably, after being up 17-3 then outscored 44-3. And TCU fought valiantly but lost in OT) So Ohio State takes over USC's #4 spot in the country, while TCU stays at #3. Did they deserve to stay at #3? I'll dissect all that happened over the weekend as I set the stage for the Final Four on New Year's Eve. I'll also get into the hire of Deion Sanders by the University of Colorado, what does this mean for him? The school? The PAC-12? And what he'll need to do there to be successful? (42:12) Jacob deGrom is one of the first major free agents off the market as he signs with the Texas Rangers on a five year/185.5 million dollar contract. Is yours truly upset or hurt by his defection? More importantly, what are the Mets going to do to replace the two time Cy Young award winner? With the baseball winter meetings beginning today, what could be percolating as far as rumors are concerned over the next few days? (Hello, Aaron Judge!) Cooperstown will have a new member in the Hall of Fame as Fred McGriff was nominated by the contemporary baseball committee yesterday. Is he deserving of this honor? What about some of the other nominees on the list? (i.e. Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Curt Schilling, Rafael Palmeiro, Albert Belle, etc.) (53:13) The USA soccer team weren't able to upend Netherlands to move on in the World Cup. I'll recap their final game of the tournament, look at what's taken place (Germany and Belgium done, Lionel Messi's achievements, Brazil's key injuries, etc.) and look ahead to what we can possibly expect as we're less than two weeks from the championship match. (1:00:09) Tyson Fury's comeback led him to a 10th round TKO over Derek Chisora. Now, he's calling out other fighters in his class as he's ready to resurrect his career after a few month layoff.

Jacob did not want to come back to New York and John believes he is not the only one. Could Aaron Judge follow him out of town? If he does, the NY Sports Fans and the NY Media need to held responsible for letting this happen. John asks when was thr last time a top three (or even ten) NBA player chose the Knicks? As far as the Baseball Hall of Fame, John can only dream that all time greats Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, and Rafael Palmeiro finally get their do call. If not, it will still be a great day for baseball to see Curt Schilling and Fred McGriff get their deserving place in the Baseball Hall of Fame. John finishes off by wondering how the Mets respond after not keeping deGrom and wonders how the Yankees will react if Aaron Judge leaves.

He was also a notorious spit ball thrower and gleefully told stories in his retirement about how he would throw an illegal pitch. The act of cheating is also on the minds of baseball fans as the Hall of Fame Veterans Committee will decide the Cooperstown fate of Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens and Rafael Palmeiro. Meanwhile the Astros have the cloud of cheating still hanging over their heads even though there is almost a total turnover from the 2017 squad.

The final month of 2022 has arrived and so has another jam packed, fast paced sports podcast that you won't want to miss. On deck: (3:10) A very intriguing NFL Week 13 schedule is upon us. Thursday night delivers a divisional matchup (Patriots-Bills) which is bigger for New England than Buffalo. Who would've thought the Commanders-Giants would have any playoff implications in December? As good as the Dolphins have been this year, their biggest test lies ahead as they'll play the next three games on the road (i.e. 49ers, Chargers and Bills) which will be telling as they try to capture the AFC East flag. A game that has nothing to do with the postseason, but everything to do with a reintroduction to the sport and expected drama as Browns QB Deshaun Watson visits his former team in Houston as he'll play his first game in almost two years. What kind of reception do you think he'll receive from the Texan faithful? (17:15) It's conference championship weekend in college football, which means Georgia, Michigan, TCU and USC are on the schedule? If any of them lose, especially TCU & USC, will they drop out of the top four, while Ohio State & Alabama back in? (23:43) In the Association, there are a couple of key injuries to keep an eye on (T'wolves Karl Anthony Towns and the Nets Ben Simmons) both suffering calf strains, with Towns out 4-6 weeks, where Simmons is out for about a week. The Celtics continue to roll. The Suns have streaked to the top of the crowded Western Conference. The league is just getting warmed up as they have their sights set on the Christmas Day schedule, which I have a gripe with the NFL as they'll share air time with the NBA that day. I'll explain in great detail. (31:20) The Seattle Kraken were involved in a rare, high scoring affair (9-8 in OT) against the Kings, but with the Bruins & Devils continuing their torrid winning ways, the NHL has been mostly quiet. Mitch Marner is a part of the Maple Leaf record book as he equaled the franchise's consecutive point scoring streak at 18. Then there's Pat Maroon turning a negative into a positive following comments by Boston Bruins announcer, Jack Edwards about his weight and donating money to charity because of it. (37:25) The Yankees have reportedly offered Aaron Judge an eight year deal worth $300 million dollars. The AAV (annual average value) would be the highest in the sport. Does Judge agree and sign on the dotted line? Or does he use this as leverage to other potential suitors? Is he looking for more years? Money? The Astros continue to not rest of their championship laurels with a superb move as they sign free agent slugger, Jose Abreu to a three year deal. The first time ballot for Cooperstown 2023 Hall of Fame class was released. Headlining that is Carlos Beltran. Is he worthy to be enshrined in Cooperstown? There's also the contemporary baseball committee that'll decide on Sunday whether or not to include Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Rafael Palmeiro, among others in the Hall. But there's one guy on that list who is MORE than deserving to be inducted in the Class of 2023. (54:38) The World Cup transitions to the knockout round. The USA team will play Netherlands on Saturday with their best player, Christian Pulisic, compromised with an injury. Will they be able to overcome and move on to play either Argentina or Australia? (58:02) Tyson Fury, the heavyweight champion of the world, is coming out of retirement to fight on Saturday. His reason for doing so is rather absurd. My rant says it all as I close out the pod.

EPISODE 72: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:45) OH GOD I so wanted Trump to declare his candidacy last night. He was THISCLOSE to doing it at his fascist rally in Ohio and thus snatching defeat for the Republicans from the jaws of victory, like he did in Georgia. But somebody got to him! (3:46) Whatever happens today, the media is doing everything it can to stick to the "Red Wave" narrative: Their polls all indicate Democratic leads in the Generic Congressional Ballot so what did Politico, Yahoo, and Reuters do? THEY DISMISSED THEIR OWN POLLS AS OUTLIERS. It all underscores the real media narrative: The media corporations are sucking up to the fascists (8:30) Last night, the Republicans gave away the next narrative: any election undecided by Wednesday morning has been fixed by the Democrats (10:48) Oh by the way, a key member of Russia's 2016 Conspiracy with Trump confessed to interfering in the election (11:45) And Elon Musk tweeted more Nazi names and six months after saying "for Twitter to deserve public trust it must be politically neutral" he told his 115,000,000 followers they should vote Republican. Oh and he's also talking about putting all of Twitter behind a paywall.  B-Block (16:40) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Ace has been reserved! Today it's Angie, in Brooklyn (17:33) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Bannon incarceration delayed, Ted Cruz hit by a White Claw and Texas police actually just don't stand there (19:24) IN SPORTS: Check with me Monday after new Coach Saturday makes his debut Sunday; It's the strangest NFL coaching move since Rock Island fired its coach mid-game in 1921. Baseball free agent news and the new Veterans' Hall of Fame Ballot is out: McGriff, Murphy, Mattingly, four roiders, one jackass - where's Keith Hernandez? (23:27) Brit "Trash OnThe Street" Hume and CNN's New Morning Show, called "Fascists? Please Let Us Live!" are no match for the all-time champion of Conventional Political Lack of Wisdom and Groupthink: Chris Cillizza with an all-time great column, telling History Teacher Jim Clyburn he doesn't understand history. C-Block (34:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: The day in 1981 the disc jockey on the top New York radio station tried to kill me and then get me fired for daring to criticize "his" New York Giants on his show. The saga of Ted Brown and "he won't remember that either" (49:55) Plus, because it was handy, a complete sportscast from December 30, 1981, and 22-year old me doing an entire sportscast on WNEW Radio in New York, complete with the latest Wayne Gretzky news (and Ted Brown).See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

MLB – Major League Baseball Yesterday Detroit Tigers 9, Texas Rangers 8 Arizona Diamondbacks 3, Chicago White Sox 2 Milwaukee Brewers 9, Chicago Cubs 7 Tigers 9, Rangers 8 – Garcia’s hit streak ends at 23, Rangers fall to Tigers Adolis Garcia struck out during a Texas rally that fell short in the ninth inning, ending his 23-game hitting streak as the Detroit Tigers held off the Rangers 9-8. Garcia’s streak was the longest in the American League this season. He went 0 for 3 with two walks and fell one game short of matching the longest hitting string ever by a Cuban-born big leaguer, set by Rafael Palmeiro in 1994 for Baltimore. Harold Castro drove in five runs as the Tigers built a 9-0 lead in the sixth. Corey Seager homered twice for Texas. Detroit took a 9-2 lead into eighth before Garcia had an RBI groundout and Kole Calhoun hit a two-run homer. After Texas closed to 9-8 in the ninth, Garcia fanned with a runner on second. D’Backs 3, White Sox 2 – Diamondbacks down scuffling White Sox 3-2 to finish sweep Jake McCarthy hit a tiebreaking double in the ninth inning and the Arizona Diamondbacks completed a three-game sweep of the struggling Chicago White Sox with a 3-2 victory. Diamondbacks rookie Stone Garrett launched his first major league home run and Sergio Alcántara also went deep for Arizona, which earned its first interleague sweep since 2019. Noé Ramirez pitched a scoreless eighth and Ian Kennedy got three outs for his ninth save. Kendall Graveman took the loss in relief of Dylan Cease, who allowed Arizona’s two solo homers while striking out eight in a career-high eight innings. Alcántara hit his fourth homer of the season in the eighth to tie it at 2. Brewers 9, Cubs 7 – Yelich, Wong HR, Mitchell’s 1st hit, Brewers beat Cubs 9-7 Christian Yelich and Kolten Wong each homered for the second straight game and 2020 first-round draft pick Garrett Mitchell drove in two runs with the first hit of his big league career, leading the Milwaukee Brewers over the Chicago Cubs 9-7. Brewers starter Eric Lauer worked five innings, allowing four runs on six hits and four walks while striking out four. Chicago got 3 1/3 out of right-hander Adrian Sampson, who allowed just a run despite five hits and a walk. Chicago reliever Sean Newcomb gave up six runs in an inning as Cubs lost for the sixth time in their last nine games. Tonight Chicago Cubs (Assad 0-0) at Toronto (Berríos 9-5), 7:07 p.m. White Sox and Tigers are off NFL – National Football League – Preseason week 3 Saturday Chicago Bears 21, Cleveland Browns 20 Indianapolis Colts 21, Tampa Bay Buccaneers 10 Yesterday Pittsburgh Steelers 19, Detroit Lions 9 Steelers 19, Lions 9 – Trubisky makes case for QB job as Steelers top Lions 19-9 Mitch Trubisky staked his claim to be the Pittsburgh Steelers starting quarterback, throwing for 160 yards and a touchdown in a 19-9 win over Detroit in the NFL’s preseason finale. Trubisky was at his best late in the first half, leading the Steelers on a 92-yard drive that ended with a 6-yard touchdown pass to Steven Sims. Rookie Kenny Pickett played well in the second half for Ptitsburgh but it appears Trubisky has the inside track to be the starter when the Steelers begin the regular season in Cincinnati on Sept. 11. WNBA – WNBA Playoffs – WNBA Semifinals (best of 5) Yesterday Connecticut Sun 68, Chicago Sky 63                                          (CON leads 1-0) Sun 68, Sky 63 – Bonner scores 15 as Sun beat Sky in Game 1 of WNBA semis DeWanna Bonner had 15 points and nine rebounds to lead the Connecticut to a 68-63 win over the Chicago Sky in Game 1 of their WNBA semifinals series.

Candace Parker had 19 points and 18 rebounds for the Sky, and Kahleah Copper scored 13 points on 5-for-10 shooting. LLWS – Hawaii wins Little League title, beating Curacao 13-3 Hawaii got back-to-back homers from Kekoa Payanal and Kama Angell in the first inning, sparking a 13-3 win in just four innings Sunday over Curacao in the championship of the Little League World Series. The LLWS title is Hawaii’s fourth. It won in 2018 and this same Honolulu team finished third last year, when COVID-19 travel restrictions prevented international teams from participating. Hawaii starter Jaron Lancaster was dominant once again as he threw all four innings, while only allowing three runs, three hits and striking out 10 Curacao hitters. NASCAR – Dillon, Blaney nab last playoff spots at rain-soaked Daytona Austin Dillon avoided a massive wreck in the rain to win at Daytona International Speedway and snag a playoff spot in the Cup Series’ regular-season finale. Dillon passed Austin Cindric for the lead with three laps to go after a 3 hour, 20 minute red flag for inclement weather. It was an aggressive move that capped a drama-filled race. Martin Truex Jr. was the biggest loser. Truex looked like he would secure the final postseason berth when the skies opened up, but he faded once the race restarted and allowed Ryan Blaney to make up ground in a wild points scramble. Tennis – US Open – Williams sisters to face Czech pair in US Open doubles Serena and Venus Williams were drawn to face the Czech pair of Lucie Hradecka and Linda Noskova in the first round of doubles at the U.S. Open.The U.S. Tennis Association announced the doubles brackets Sunday, a day before the tournament begins.Doubles competition will begin on Wednesday.It is the first doubles event for the Williams sisters together since the 2018 French Open.

Noskova is a 17-year-old who never has won a Grand Slam match in singles or doubles. NCAAFB – Free beer was right call at Dublin game says catering firm In the postgame analysis, free beer at the Nebraska-Northwestern game in Ireland was the right call. The freebies flowed for two hours during Northwestern’s 31-28 victory on Saturday, and the catering company for Aviva Stadium hailed its workers for keeping the refreshments coming. Levy UK + Ireland said Sunday the problem was with its payment provider, SumUp, and not with the stadium’s internet connection. Levy, a sports and hospitality caterer whose other clients include English Premier League soccer clubs, did not give an estimate of lost revenue. Golf – PGA – McIlroy storms from 6 back to win FedEx Cup and $18 million Rory McIlroy is the FedEx Cup champion for the third time. He stormed from a record-tying six shots behind to win the Tour Championship and capture the $18 million prize. Scottie Scheffler never trailed all week until the 70th hole. He built the six-shot lead Sunday morning with four birdies in six holes to complete the third round. But he was never on his game and made only one birdie in a round of 73. McIlroy shot a 66. He says winning felt even more significant because of the tumultuous year caused by Saudi-funded LIV Golf. Cycling – Kenyan cyclist dies in crash during gravel race in Vermont Kenyan cyclist Sule Kangangi has died in a crash during a gravel race in Vermont. Kangangi was competing in the Vermont Overland race on Saturday when he died in a crash at high speed.

He went 0 for 3 with two walks and fell one game short of matching the longest hitting string ever by a Cuban-born big leaguer, set by Rafael Palmeiro in 1994 for Baltimore. Harold Castro drove in five runs as the Tigers built a 9-0 lead in the sixth. Corey Seager homered twice for Texas. Detroit took a 9-2 lead into eighth before Garcia had an RBI groundout and Kole Calhoun hit a two-run homer. After Texas closed to 9-8 in the ninth, Garcia fanned with a runner on second.

It was Detroit’s first four-game sweep of Cleveland since 2013. Cabrera also moved past Dave Winfield into a tie for 17th with Rafael Palmeiro on baseball’s all-time RBI list with 1,835. Michael Pineda allowed two runs and five hits over five innings and four teammates combined to pitch four innings of scoreless relief. Cleveland’s Shane Bieber gave up five runs on seven hits and three walks. Detroit is 7-2 against the Guardians this year and is set up to win the season series against them for the first time since 2015. White Sox 9, Twins 8 – F/10 – Vaughn, Garcia help White Sox rally, beat Twins 9-8 in 10 Andrew Vaughn tied the game with a two-run homer in the eighth inning, and Leury Garcia hit a game-ending single in the 10th to give the Chicago White Sox a 9-8 victory over the Minnesota Twins. The White Sox trailed five times in the game and tied it each time before taking their first and only lead in extra innings to avoid a three-game sweep. Chicago snapped a seven-game losing streak to the AL Central-leading Twins. Playing his first game since April 23, Eloy Jiménez made an immediate impact for the White Sox, hitting a two-run homer and an RBI single. Cubs 2, Brewers 1 – Cubs rally against Brewers’ bullpen, win 2-1 at Milwaukee P.J. Higgins hit a tiebreaking two-out double off Josh Hader in the ninth inning, and the Chicago Cubs rallied for a 2-1 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers.

The Cubs took two of three at Milwaukee and have followed a 10-game losing streak by winning four straight series. Patrick Wisdom led off the ninth with a walk for Chicago and stole second one out later. Higgins brought home Wisdom by sending Hader’s 1-1 slider just inside the right-field line.

The Browns have traded the divisive quarterback and former No. 1 overall draft pick to the Carolina Panthers for a future draft pick. Mayfield was pushed out of his starting job by the Browns’ pursuit of Deshaun Watson and is going to Carolina for a conditional draft pick in 2024 or 2025. The Browns are also paying $10 million of Mayfield’s $18.8 million contract for next season, a person familiar with the negotiations told The Associated Press. The trade was announced by the Panthers, who will host the Browns in next season’s opener.

Biden’s conversation with Griner’s wife, Cherelle Griner, comes after Brittney Griner wrote Biden a letter on Monday. In the letter, Brittney Griner told the president she feared she would spend forever in a Russian jail. The WNBA star is currently on trial in Russia, accused of possessing vape cartridges containing cannabis oil. Cherelle Griner says she is “grateful” for the outreach but will keep up the public pressure. WNBA – Mercury hold public rally in support of Brittney Griner They shared laughs, smiles, memories. There also were tears, fears, unease. Through the range of emotions, one common thread bonded them together: Brittney Griner. Wearing “BG” shirts and holding signs, several hundred fans gathered for a public rally in support of Griner on Wednesday, hoping their sentiments would reach the WNBA player 6,000 miles away in a Russian jail cell. Griner has spent the past four months in a Russian prison and is currently on trial, accused of possessing vape cartridges containing cannabis oil when she arrived at the Moscow airport while returning to play for her Russian team. She faces up to 10 years in prison if convicted. NHL – Who’s No. 1? Uncertainty surrounding top pick at NHL draft There is legitimate uncertainty about who the No. 1 pick in the NHL draft will be for the first time in almost a decade. The Montreal Canadiens have been considering Canadian center Shane Wright, Slovak winger Juraj Slafkovsky and American center Logan Cooley. There’s also buzz about the Canadiens trying to make a trade for an additional top-five pick in the first draft they’ve hosted in Montreal since 2009. The New Jersey Devils have shopped the second pick in an effort to get more immediate help. The Arizona Coyotes pick fourth and the Seattle Kraken fifth.  The Blackhawks traded their 6th pick to the Columbus Blue Jackets in the Seth Jones trade last summer, and the Red Wings will pick 8th. NHL – Wild GM Guerin says Kirill Kaprizov is fine, still in Russia Minnesota Wild general manager Bill Guerin says Kirill Kaprizov remains in Russia and is doing fine after state media there reported the star winger’s name was linked to fraudulent military identifications. Guerin denied the Sport-Express report that Kaprizov returned to the U.S. after Flyers goaltending prospect Ivan Fedotov was taken to a remote military base in northern Russia. Philadelphia GM Chuck Fletcher had no update on Fedotov’s status. New York Islanders GM Lou Lamoriello said he was not concerned about getting goalie Ilya Sorokin home from Russia NHL – Former NHL defenseman Bryan Marchment dies at 53 Former NHL defenseman Bryan Marchment died Wednesday in Montreal. He was 53. Longtime agent Rick Curran confirmed Marchment’s death to The Associated Press. Marchment was attending the NHL draft in Montreal as a scout for the San Jose Sharks. A cause of death was not immediately available. Marchment played parts of 17 NHL seasons from 1989-2006. He had been working in scouting and other roles for the Sharks and their American Hockey League affiliate since 2007.  Marchment played three seasons for the Chicago Blackhawks and his son Mason currently plays for the Florida Panthers. NCAA – One year of NIL: How much have athletes made? It’s been a year since college athletes have been able to capitalize on their status with name, image and licensing deals, and some are making thousands of dollars. One NIL platform projects that more than $900 million was spent in the first year and that NIL is only going to get bigger — $1.1 billion in 2022-23. While comprehensive data is hard to come by, some of the NIL platforms and a handful of schools have provided information about the average deal, the median deal and what athletes do for that money. Tennis – Wimbledon – Hampered Nadal gets past Fritz at Wimbledon; Kyrgios next Rafael Nadal extended his Grand Slam winning streak to 19 matches with a 3-6, 7-5, 3-6, 7-5, 7-6 (10-4) victory over 11th-seeded Taylor Fritz in the Wimbledon quarterfinals.

Tadej Pogačar kick-started his bid to win a third straight Tour with a sensational ride over the cobbles to slash the gap to Van Aert to 19 seconds on a day where several of his rivals lost time. Clarke won from the remnants of an early breakaway. World Games ’21 – Pandemic-delayed World Games open in Birmingham a year late A global athletic competition is starting in Birmingham, Alabama, after a yearlong delay caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The opening ceremony for the World Games 2022 is set for Thursday night at Protective Stadium.

Events include non-Olympic sports including sumo wrestling, gymnastics, pickleball, martial arts and tug of war. Some competitions already have been held. Hundreds of people turned out in Oxford east of Birmingham for exhibition games featuring the USA Softball Women’s National Team. World Games ’21 – NFL makes strong push for flag football with eye on Olympics Flag football will be played at an international, multi-sport event for the first time next week during the World Games in Birmingham, Alabama. The NFL may be the sport’s biggest cheerleader. The NFL partnered with the International Federation of American Football to bring flag football to The World Games with an eye on the 2028 Olympics. Sixteen of the world’s best flag football teams will compete for gold for the first time at The World Games kicking off Sunday at Birmingham’s historic Legion Field.

This week's Moonlighter story starts the way many stories do but ends up alongside a host of Hall of Famers. Steve Dreyer called himself a pretty good high school baseball player who just wanted to keep playing after high school. However, as the 4th guy in the rotation at Ames High, not too many programs were knocking on his door. Dreyer's desire to keep playing and willingness to work just kept opening doors for him. Dreyer ended up on the UNI baseball team after being encouraged to attend a tryout by a former teammate. After 3 days of trying out as an infielder, Dreyer made the team because he could play 3rd base and pitch. His freshman season for the Panthers was a rocky road. An ERA over 12 was evidence of being put into some tough spots, including facing Robin Ventura with the bases loaded. Over the course of his sophomore year though, Dreyer was starting to improve as a pitcher and found himself feeling more in control. Dreyer made a big jump from his freshman year to his sophomore year, and by the time he reached his junior year, he was UNI's top arm. Before his junior year, Dreyer went to an open scouting day in central Iowa. Dreyer topped 90 when his turn on the mound came and the scouts had to ask him who he was and where he went to school. That introduction gave scouts a reason to start watching UNI baseball a little more closely. Dreyer led the Panthers to some impressive showings against bigger programs like Notre Dame and Creighton and major league baseball was becoming an option. Fast forward to draft day in June 1990, and the Texas Rangers made the call after selecting him in the 8th round. Dreyer's time in the minors was pretty short and very successful as he worked his way into the majors after about 2 years. By 1993, Dreyer had some success in AA and joined the AAA team in New Orleans. With the support of his coaches, Dreyer found his stride and earned an opportunity in Arlington. Joining the Texas Rangers 1993 meant playing alongside Nolan Ryan, Pudge Rodriguez, Jose Canseco, and Rafael Palmeiro. Dreyer played in 15 games for the Rangers over the 1993 and 1994 seasons, including 9 starts. Dreyer continued to play professionally until 1997. Now, Dreyer is still hanging around the ballpark, but now it's as a fan of his son, Jack, who is a standout pitcher for the Iowa Hawkeyes. Are you a proud supporter of the Moonlight Graham Show?

12-14-2019 Passed Ball Show. John opens up this version of the program by talking about how the New York Mets are in a business of saving money. They continue to put up the front that they have to reduce payroll if they are to make the necessary additions they need to make to compete with the best teams of the National League. Yet, they did not pay Yoenis Cespedes almost half of his contractual obligations for 2019. The Mets have used the Cespedes contact as an excuse of why they cannot afford other upgrades, yet they were not paying him in the first place. In spite of saving $20 million in having to pay Cespedes this coming season, they STILL claim they need to move a $10 million or so contact (Jed Lowrie or Jeurys Familia) if they are to have the financial ability to address the worst bullpen in Major League Baseball. The Mets answer to improving the worst bullpen in baseball is to send out the same exact relievers. What is the definition of insanity? John then talks about the Baseball Hall of Fame and how its voting process and choices of exclusion are different from Pro Football and Pro Basketball. Did OJ Simpson and Pete Rose dominate a sport enough to warrant inclusion in its respective Hall of Fame? Yes. Did anything they did (or did not do) after their playing career was over have anything to do with what they did when they played? No. Why is Pete Rose not in Baseball's Hall of Fame for what he did as a player? Barry Bonds and Roger Clemens (and anybody else suspected of using performance enhancing drugs) would get a more fair trial if they were being accused of a heinous crime. John gives a different take, though, when it comes to the career of Will Clark. While John does not back down from his support of the "steroids era" players getting enshrined in its Hall of Fame, he does feel for a player like Will Clark. Clark was as good as Rafael Palmeiro, but chose to not use PED's. Will Clark's accomplishments are not given the credit they deserve because of Palmeiro, because of Mark McGwire- two players that would be considered Clark contemporaries. Finally, in the Nobody's Listening segment of the show, John talks about the "R" word, and even though it should not be used, the context and intention should be considered before the PC police eats them alive. A statement of such should not be grounds for termination and definitely should not lead to somebody being given future employment

The Portrait of a True Gospel Minister One of the things that I like to do as I travel through different cities is go to art museums. Now, some of you would be very excited about that. Others wonder, "why in the world would one want to spend their afternoon in an art museum?" But I do. I'm not talented at all as an artist, but I like to see skillful art. I like to see the way that especially painters are able to capture light and show faces and things like that. And so a number of years ago and actually a couple of times I've been to The Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam and I've seen the work of the Dutch masters. And they are able to capture with just incredible skill portraits of faces. And you can just see that different individuals leaders, people that don't maybe mean anything to me as an American, but they're part of Dutch history or just perhaps even random individuals from society. And just the ability to capture a look, a gleam in an eye facial expression. Obviously the most famous of all these is not in Amsterdam, but in the Louvre, the Mona Lisa, the ability to capture the look on her face and what in the world she was thinking about and how she's able to look at you as you walk from left to right. I don't know how that can be, but that's the skill of a portrait artist. John Bunyan in his spiritual allegory, his classic Pilgrim's Progress uses this image as Christian goes to a place called Interpreter’s House at the beginning of his pilgrimage from the City of Destruction to the Celestial City, he is shown by the interpreter many scenes or vignette's, or different things that will help him in his journey. It's going to be a very dangerous journey the Christian life is a dangerous journey and the first thing that interpreters shows him is a portrait. A framed picture and this is how it's described. Interpreter showed him Christian, a picture of a very grave that means a serious person hang up against the wall, and this was the fashion of it. "It had eyes, lift up to heaven, the best of books in his hand, the law of truth was written upon his lips, the world was behind his back. It stood as if it pleaded with men, and a crown of gold did hang over his head." So, Christians there looking at this portrait. This picture up on the wall. Then said Christian, "What means this?" Interpreter answered, "The man who's picture this is, is one of a thousand. He can beget children, he can travail in birth with children and nurse them himself, when they are born. And whereas thou seeth him with his eyes, lift up to heaven, the best of books in his hand, and the law of truth writ on his lips, it is to show thee that his work is to know and unfold dark things to sinners. Even as thou also seeth him stand as if he pleaded with men and whereas thou seeth the world as cast behind him and that a crown hangs over his head, this is to show thee that sliding and despising the things that are present in this world for the love that he hath to his master service he is sure in the world to come next to have his glory for his reward." Now said the interpreter, "I have showed thee this picture first because the man whose portrait this is, is the only man whom the Lord of the place whether thou art going have authorized to be thy guide and all the difficult places, thou mayest meet with on the way." So this is the Puritan portrait of a Godly pastor. And as you look at that, this is the guide that you will need as you make your way along the way. This is the first thing that the interpreter wanted to show Christian. And look at the descriptions, one of a thousand. This is a rare individual. He's grave, serious in demeanor, like a powerful warrior. Life is serious, and like Jesus was a man of sorrows and familiar with suffering so this individual is a serious-minded person. He understands there's a war going on. He is able, it says to beget children, to travail in birth with children. A bit of a strange image. We'll talk more about it in a moment, but he's able to nurse them up after they're born. He has his eyes lifted up to Heaven, he's heavenly minded. And he has the world cast behind his back, he thinks very little of the honors and privileges and rewards of this world. He despises the lust of this world and its worldly prizes. And he has the law of truth in his lips meaning he speaks the word of God consistently he has the best of books, the 'book of book's in his hands, namely the Bible. And he unfolds deep mysterious things doctrines from the Word of God. He's a faithful teacher, of the Word of God. And He's got a crown of gold over his head, namely he has a future eternal reward for all his labors. Now for me, as a pastor, I look at this and I think this is an incredibly challenging image. "How could I ever live up to this portrait?" Paul Was a True Spiritual Father But the more that I look at it, I think there is one man that lived up to it, better than anyone that has ever been in church history, and that is the apostle Paul. And Paul here gives us in this text, that you just heard Chris read, basically a portrait of a spiritual leader or guide or perhaps better right from the text, a spiritual father. And what's amazing is Paul's fathering of souls, has continued across the centuries, through the Word that He wrote through 1 Corinthians through Romans through all of the things that God laid in his heart, he is able to continue to, in some amazing way, beget children, raise them up and train them. He's also a challenge to all that would like to be, yearned to be, spiritual leaders in their generation, that we would live up to this portrait. Paul Uses Many Metaphors for the Ministry Now, Paul uses a lot of images for the pastoral ministry, there's a lot of different things even in 1 Corinthians. For example, the image of being a servant or a slave. First Corinthians 3:5. "What after all is Apollos? What is Paul, only servants? Through whom you came to believe, as the Lord assigned to each his task." So, a pastor, a godly leader is a servant. Also farmers. He's got a farming image here. "I planted the seed, Apollos watered, but God made it grow." Also got an architectural or kind of a construction image, a building image. In 1 Corinthians 3:10. He says, "By the grace God gave me, I laid a foundation as an expert builder. Someone else is building on it." Also we got the image in chapter 4 the beginning of this same chapter, of stewards. That's a servant with a special task who's managing the master's possessions or property. So look at verses 1-2, he says "This is how one should regard us as servants of Christ." I already covered that. But also "stewards of the mysteries of God. Moreover, it is required of servants or stewards that they be found trustworthy." Later in this book, he will talk about himself as a witness, somewhat like at a court trial. We get this in Acts chapter 1:8 "You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you and you will be my witnesses." So Paul talks about in the 1 Corinthians 15:15, he basically said, "We were witnesses of Christ that God raised Him from the dead." So witnesses. Also the image of shepherds comes across in Paul's language frequently, especially in Acts 20:28 when he gathered the elders from the church at Ephesus, and He said, "Be shepherds of the church of God, which He bought with His own blood." So there's that image of being an overseer or shepherd. In 2 Timothy 1 he uses the image of a herald. A herald will be somebody who comes into the town square and announces news from a king. He also in 2 Corinthians 5, uses the image of an ambassador, someone who is the official representative of a distant King. All of these are images of the pastoral ministry. But here he's got, I think, the most emotionally poignant one, the most powerful one, and that is of a spiritual father. Look what he says in verse 15, "Even though you have 10,000 guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers for in Christ Jesus, I became your father through the gospel." Father: A Picture of Committed Love PLUS Authority So this is a picture of committed love, plus fatherly authority. We're going to talk about that in the verses that you just heard. Paul is laboring here to re-establish his spiritual authority to speak into the lives of the Corinthian Christians. He has the right to speak into their lives, he has the right to evaluate their behavior and to speak words of judgment and give disciplines as an authority figure, as a father. There were some in that Corinthian church that were questioning Paul, they were challenging him, pushing back at him. It wasn't enough that they said "I follow Apollos… or "I follow Cephas…" or "I follow Christ…" they said "I don't follow Paul." And so he's got to deal with a faction, a group within the church that's becoming increasingly hostile to him, anti-Paul. And he deals with it openly throughout pretty much the whole of 2 Corinthians. He's establishing, throughout that whole book his reputation, his right to give commands his, his ministry as over against a group of false teachers who Paul says they are like masquerading as servants of righteousness like an angel of light, like Satan masquerading as an angel of light. So these are false teachers but then there are others that weren't false teachers either way, they just were Corinthian Christians who were doubting Paul, challenging him and increasingly unable to hear from him and because of Paul's unique role in redemptive history, the apostle of Jesus Christ to the Gentile world. It was vital for them to be able to continue to drink in truth from this spiritual father to be able to sit at Paul's feet, and drink in truth from him. And to not push back. And so it is vital for us I think to continue to be ministered to by Paul, God entrusted a lot of controversial topics to Paul. A lot of them are right in this book. Like I said, if I go verse by verse, and you stick with me, at some point, I will offend each one of you, I don't intend to, but it's just the nature of the kind of topics that are covered in 1 Corinthians. God gave Christ gave to Paul a lot of heavy lifting to do a lot of controversial issues and so therefore there's frequently a push back against Paul. I don't like Paul. And so that was going on in the Corinthian church. Beyond that however, there is the importance for us to understand these elements or these aspects of being a spiritual father because it's the lasting pattern that we can, to some degree, inherit if we're going to be spiritual leaders as well. The Lord is pouring into our geographical region more and more people. They are pouring in here, by the hundreds and by the thousands. And many of them are un-church, many of them are unbelievers. And the only spiritual dynamic that's going to be suitable or sufficient to meet these rising numbers in this great challenge, a great opportunity for us is spiritual multiplication and by spiritual multiplication. I mean, we are able to lead individual people to Christ, and then mentor them or disciple them and raise them up to maturity so that they can do the same thing in the lives of others. And so, we have here, I think a lasting pattern for being a spiritual mentor or leader similar to the Apostle Paul. Now he'll be unique in history, but that we could follow that. So let's look at some of these elements. I. A Spiritual Father Has Spiritual Children And it begins, simply with this. A spiritual father has spiritual children. You don't become a father until you have a child, and so you don't become a spiritual father until you have led someone to Christ. Look at verse 15, "Even though you have 10,000 guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel." Now, the term he uses here translated guardians. Would be a slave in a large household who's entrusted specifically with the responsibility of training the future heir. The son who will inherit the mansion and all the property and he trains him, he's intelligent, this guardian he's pouring truth in him and He's preparing him for all of his social, financial, economic obligations. That was the Greek term that Paul uses here. He said, "You Corinthians, you have 10,000 of those. You have a lot of people who influenced you for Christ. But you have only one father." Now that's what he's saying here. You have a lot of people who have... So I think he would say Apollos even Peter other individuals, gifted teachers, they are your influencers they are to some degree guardians but you have a unique relationship with your spiritual father and that's what he's claiming for himself. Paul came to Corinth as a trail blazing, frontier church planting apostle to the Gentiles. And he, by faithful preaching, of Christ and him crucified, laid the foundation for that church. He is not claiming to be their Savior He didn't shed his blood for their sins. He wasn't raised from the dead on the third day he is not the savior of the world. He proclaimed Christ crucified and resurrected as their only savior. But in that he had a unique role at the human level of seeing them come to Christ. Furthermore, we know that only through the ministry of the Holy Spirit, can anyone be born again. The Holy Spirit alone can move someone from spiritual death to spiritual life, and so Jesus said that you have to be born of the Spirit in order to enter Heaven, you have to be born again born by the spirit. He said to Nicodemus. And so this is something only the Holy Spirit of God can do. No human individual can do this. God saves sinners by sovereign... By His sovereign power. By the blood of Christ by the resurrection of Christ, by the power of the Holy Spirit of God that's how God sovereignly saves sinners. But He uses human servants in that process, and He used Paul in bringing these Corinthian Christians to saving faith. He was their spiritual father in the Gospel. Now, Paul fathered many children. Everywhere he went, he fathered spiritual children, and he uses this image frequently. For example, in Galatians 4, I think this is exactly where Bunyan got his image that this man, this warrior is able to give birth to children and travail and birth over them until they're developed. I think he's taken that right from Galatians 4. Where that church in Galatia was dealing with false doctrine, that Judaizers the false doctrine in Galatia... That the Galatians were being drawn in by. And this... He uses the language, Galatians 4:19-20, "My dear children for whom I am again in the pains of child birth until Christ is formed in you, how I wish I could be with you now and change my tone because I am perplexed about you." Is an amazing image for Paul to use. And he says, again, "I was in child birth with you the first time, and now it seems I've got to do that all over again." He's also the spiritual father of many churches, not just this Corinthian church, but for example, the Thessalonian Church. 1 Thessalonians 2:11-12, he says, "You know that we dealt with each of you as a father deals with his own children, encouraging, comforting you, and urging you to live lives worthy of the God." So he was their spiritual father and he dealt with them gently and lovingly. He's also the spiritual father of individuals. For example, Onesimus the runaway slave who bumped into Paul in Rome. And Paul in the little letter to Philemon in Verse 10 he says, "I appeal to you for my child, whom I fathered while I was in chains, Onesimus." It's pretty powerful. He also calls right in this text, Timothy, his own son, and he does that many times, and he calls Titus his spiritual son. So Paul by faithfully preaching the gospel was privileged to lead countless souls to Christ, and in that way, he would say he became their spiritual father. So let me just stop and apply that to us, to you, to each one of us. Have you done this? Have you been able to be a spiritual parent, a father, or mother, to lead someone, an individual, to Christ, It's an incredible privilege. It's never going to be, you alone if you're the one there when they're born again be assured the Lord's been working in them for days, weeks, months, years, before you. But what a great joy it is to be there at the moment of life. Because especially, it's not just that, but then you have a responsibility an obligation then to disciple that person to train them up, but what a great joy. Has that ever happened to you? Have you ever been able to lead someone to Christ? And if not, I just want to create inside of you a yearning that that would happen. Oh God, in 2019 let me lead someone to Christ. Please give me the opportunity to see someone cross over from death to life, from darkness to light. I just want to... I want to be there when it happens. Well, in order for that to happen, you got to share the gospel. You got to share the Gospel with people and it's like, "Oh God, I would love that to happen." So that's a yearning I have inside my heart and for each one of you. Every Mother's Day, we have a baby dedication. One of my favorite times... It's a... It's a fun time, it's a noisy part of our service. You guys know exactly what I'm talking. It's really fun. It's all the parents of babies that were born in the past year are standing there and get a chance to have their babies pray for. I think our church is very fruitful. Have you noticed? We're a fruitful church. Alright, praise God, that's awesome. But wouldn't it be awesome to have just as many spiritual babes, baptized, water baptized and then discipled and trained in their first steps of Christian obedience? How sweet would that be? That's my desire. II. A Spiritual Father Loves His Children Secondly, a spiritual father loves his spiritual children. He has a tremendous tone of affection for them. Throughout 1 and 2 Corinthians, He clearly loves them. And He deeply loves these people, and they aren't easy to love. They are not easy. They are a dysfunctional church, they are prideful, they're fractious, they push back against Him, they give Him a lot of grief but He just clearly loves them. And you get that a lot in 2 Corinthians... 2 Corinthians 6:11-13, listen to this, "We have spoken freely to you Corinthians, our hearts are opened wide to you. We are not withholding our affection from you, but you are withholding yours from us. I speak as to my children as a fair exchange, open-wide your hearts to us also." He loves them. He just wants them to love Him too, or again, later in that same book, 2 Corinthians 12, I love this, 14-15, "After all, children should not have to save up for their parents, but parents for their children." A number of you college students are saying "Amen." I think that's absolutely right. But it is right. Parents save up resources so they can bless their children with them. It's not called on the other way. And so Paul then says this, "So I'll very gladly spend for you everything I have and expend myself as well." "Because I'm a spiritual father who will give you everything I have." What's sad is that this church is not doing well spiritually. They're not walking in the Word that he taught them. So this is really very much the opposite of what John says in 3 John in Verse 4, where he says, "I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth." Well, Paul has the opposite sorrow here where he hears that these Corinthians are in many ways not walking in the truth and it brings him grief. They are struggling in their walk with Christ. Now Paul is willing to spend himself and to be spent for them. III. A Spiritual Father Does Not Shame, But Warns His Children Thirdly, a spiritual father does not shame, but warns His children. Look again at verse 14, we saw it last week, he said "I'm not writing this to shame you, but to warn you as my dear children." Now part of the role of a wise spiritual father is to be willing to speak hard truths, when needed. But also he has to know when enough is enough, to not be too severe with them. Now, Paul, as we saw last week, has really laid into them in this chapter, really laid in. You remember last week as we went over these words in verses 8-13, "Already you have all you want, already, you have become rich, you've become kings, and that without us. How I wish that you really had become kings, so that we could be kings with you, for it seems to me that God has put us apostles on display, at the end of the procession, like men condemned to die in the arena. We have been made a spectacle to the whole universe, to angels as well as to men. We are fools for Christ, but you, you are so wise in Christ. We are weak, but you are strong. You are honored, we are dishonored. To this very hour, we go hungry and thirsty, we're in rags, we are brutally treated, we are homeless. We work hard with our own hands, when we are cursed we bless, when we're persecuted, we endure it, when we are slandered we answer kindly. Up to this moment, we have become the scum of the earth, the refuse of the world." Now, if you hear that, you feel that is weighty. He is laying it into them, he is pressing on their consciences, he's worried about them, that they are becoming worldly and they care too much what their pagan Corinthian neighbors think and they want a comfortable easy life, prosperous, honored, easy, go to heaven. See and that's not the kind of life we're living, that's not what my life is like, Paul is saying. So he has turned it way up. Then in Verse 14, he turns it back down again, it's remarkable. Look again at verse 14, "I'm not saying this to shame you, but to warn you as my dear children." It's a remarkable statement. Now shame is a powerful thing in life, isn't it? It's one of the things we fear the most, public shame. It's a burning sense of public embarrassment of being exposed especially in the eyes of people you care about, whose opinion matters to you. Shame has a role in our sanctification, similar to physical pain in this life. Physical pain warns you that something's wrong. Stop leaning on that hot thing you're burning your hand or you've got some internal serious organic problem with yourself, you need to get treated. Pain does that, shame is similar spiritually in this world. When we sin, we're supposed to take it seriously. There's supposed to be a burning sense of hatred for that so that we don't ever do it, again. There is a reasonable place for that. Do you remember when Peter the night that Jesus was arrested, denied, three times knowing that he hadn't ever heard of Jesus to the point of even calling down curses on himself. Then suddenly the rooster crows, he remembers which Jesus had predicted. Jesus is walking by being taken from one place to the other in bonds. He looks right at Peter, at the moment the rooster is crowing. I can't imagine what that felt like. And then he went outside and wept bitterly. What was he feeling at that moment? You can say shame is no part of my Christian life. Alright, give it another word then. But what was he feeling at that moment? And did it play a role in the rest of his life? Jesus gently lovingly restored him, forgave him, re-established him in public ministry, but he never forgot that night. Never. It's like, "Oh God deliver me from fear, of man, deliver me from fear, of incarceration, deliver me from fear of death, deliver me so that I can be faithful in my preaching Ministry, of thee youth." So it had a role to play. And yet Paul here says, "I'm not writing this to shame you." It's interesting because in the very next chapter, 1 Corinthians 5, it seems like he want them to feel ashamed, that's a church discipline passage, remember, where he says, "It's actually reported that there is someone among you that is sinning in a way that pagans don't even do, a man has his father's wife. And you were proud. Shouldn't you rather have been filled with grief?" Alright, alright, filled with grief, but I can imagine Paul is saying, "You ought to be ashamed of yourselves, that you're tolerating this sin in your life, in your church," there's that sense. But you're like, "He doesn't use the word shame." Okay, fine. Go up to Chapter 6, Verse 5, and he says there about court cases within the church. He says, "Is this actually possible that there's no one amongst you wise enough to judge a case from Brother to Brother, so you have to go to the pagans? I say this to your shame." Oh, there it is. And he's going to do it again in Chapter 15 where he talked about the resurrection and there he says, "Come back to your senses, as you ought, and stop sinning, for there are some there who are ignorant of God. I say this to your shame." That's in the same epistle. So why here in verse 14, does he say, "I'm not writing this to shame you but to warn you,"? because he knows he has come on strong. He knows he has turned it way up to level 10, and it's time now to back off. A godly father knows when enough is enough. He's going to warn his children, but then when he has made his point, he's going to back off. Lots of fathers err on each side of this equation. They're either too soft, and negligent and lazy and they don't address the sins of their children or they're way too harsh and really abusive, verbally, emotionally maybe even physically abusive. You see this a lot, even in the sports world. I've been around some fathers that seem to be living their sports fantasies through their children and you guys know what I'm talking about. But I was reading about one major league baseball player named Rafael Palmeiro, and his father Jose, was this kind of a father. He was a senior in high school and he lashed a line drive 396 feet long, hit the middle of the wall and rolled. And he got a double. His father ran out in the field and said, "If you are any kind of man at all, you would have cleared that fence." On the field, in a varsity baseball game. And he did this his whole life. Every time you go two for four, his dad would call him and say, "What about the other two at-bats?" This is kind of man that he was. And Rafael Palmeiro said, "This drove me onto excellence." Yeah, well, it'll drive some people on excellence, other people it would be destructive. History is actually filled with abusive fathers who pour acid on their kids verbally, deprive them of affection, provoke them to wrath. Paul wasn't that kind of a spiritual father but he did not neglect to warn them of the danger they were in. He just knew enough was enough. IV. A Spiritual Father Sets the Example for His Children Fourthly, a spiritual father sets the example for his children. Look at Verse 16, "Therefore, I urge you to imitate me." So much of the Christian life is caught as well as taught. I don't think that there's anything in the Christian life that's not taught first, and then caught. But there are just some things that you just live out, like you're instructed in the Word and then it's lived out. You should pray but then they watch Jesus praying and say, "Teach us to pray." And so there's that combination of example and then instruction. Jesus came to this world, primarily to die on the cross as an atoning sacrifice for our sins, that His blood would be shed on the cross. But friends, He could have done that in an afternoon. God could have incarnated Him as a fully grown man, orchestrated instantly, His death on the cross, raised Him from the dead on the third day and take Him back up to Heaven, but He had 30 years of perfect life before that, for a lot of theological reasons. But one of them is to give us "an example that we should follow in His steps." 1 Peter 2:21. Paul knew the importance of example as well. In Chapter 11 in the same book, verse 1, he says, "Follow my example as I follow the example of Christ." So Paul set up his lifestyle as an example, for the Corinthians to follow. No one in history suffered as much for the Gospel as Paul. So he's not asking them to do anything, he's not living out. He's pointing to his example in terms of his suffering for the Gospel. Follow my example. So a spiritual father is willing to set his lifestyle before his children as an example. Children see right through hypocrisy, they just do, they just see right through, "Do as I say, not as I do." But a spiritual father is able to present his life, not perfectly, there are no perfect spiritual fathers, but that you practice what you preach. Now, Paul was so confident of his role modeling that he knew he couldn't go, but he was willing to send his number one spiritual son Timothy, in his place. Look at verse 17, "For this reason, I'm sending to you Timothy, my son whom I love, who is faithful in the Lord and he will remind you of my way of life in Christ Jesus." He has absorbed my example, he has absorbed my way of life, and he will be able to teach it to you." That's marvelous, that's spiritual multiplication, isn't it? V. A Spiritual Father Teaches His Children Fifthly, a spiritual father teaches his children. Look, again in Verse 17, "Timothy will remind you of my way of life in Christ Jesus which agrees with what I teach everywhere, in every church." There is a clear marriage of doctrine and lifestyle and so Timothy's lifestyle is an example of what he teaches everywhere in every church. Teaching is the most important part of the gospel ministry. Jesus, when He landed and saw a large crowd, it says He had compassion on them, because they were harassed and helpless like sheep without a shepherd. So He taught them many things. That's before He fed the 5000, before He healed them. His top priority was teaching them the Word of God. Mark 6:34. So the essence of being a spiritual father is a teaching ministry. Children come into the world, perfectly ignorant of everything. I mean, they have some instincts. They certainly know how to cry and other things as well, but they don't have a big repertoire, I've noticed. But they have to be instructed, about everything, that's definitely true of Christian doctrine. And so, teaching is at the center of spiritual fathering. And so Paul was a phenomenal teacher of the Word. He said again to the Ephesian elders, Acts 20:20, "You know that I have not hesitated to preach, anything that would be helpful to you, but have taught you publicly and from house to house." He also says, Acts 20:27, "I have not hesitated to proclaim to you the whole Will of God." So, you fathers, are you pouring the Word of God into your children? You disciplers, both men and women, when you get together with your disciples. Are you just chatting over coffee? You talking about current events? You talking about hobbies or sports or are you and all that's fine initially, but are you getting down and doing some work in the Word of God? Is there actually a teaching aspect to your discipleship relationship? It's foundation. VII. A Spiritual Father Disciplines His Children Six, a spiritual father disciplines his children. Now, this passage ends on a very serious, and very stern note. Look at verses 18-21, "Some of you have become arrogant as if I were not coming to you, but I will come to you very soon, if the Lord is willing and then I will find out not only how these arrogant people are talking but what power they have, for the Kingdom of God is not a matter of talk, but of power." Verse 20. Let me say that again, "For the Kingdom of God is not a matter of talk, but of power, and what do you prefer? Shall I come to you with a rod or in love and with a gentle spirit?" So like I told you, there are anti-Paul people there and specifically we're going to find out in 2 Corinthians, there are false teachers there, too. They call themselves the super Apostles, better than apostle. "We're apostle version two." Paul's like, "Really? Okay, alright, let's talk about it. I'm going to come there and I'm going to find out one thing, what kind of power do you have? We're going to have a power contest. It's easy to boast about things that you can't produce. So, let's see if you actually have any kind of power." The Kingdom of God is a powerful thing. And it's not merely a matter of talk. This reminds me of the time you remember when Jesus was doing all these healings, and someone brought to Him a paralyzed man, some friends, and they couldn't get near Jesus, remember this? And so they climbed up on the roof and dug through the roof and lowered this paralyzed man in front of Jesus. I picture that in my mind, is there pieces of plaster falling down on people's necks while that's going on? Wait, they didn't have plaster. Were they just digging through branches that were there? I don't know what digging through the roof, look like, but they got to get a full grown paralyzed man, lowered down through there. Must have taken some time. I wonder if Jesus continued His teaching until they were ready. I don't know. Why am I doing this? Anyway, focus. So, they lower him down and it says powerfully when Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralyzed man, "Take heart son, your sins are forgiven." That's awesome, but Jesus's enemies heard Him and in their mind they said this fellow is blasphemy. Who can forgive sins but God alone. Jesus knew their thoughts and said to them, "Why do you challenge me, or why do you challenge what I'm saying in your hearts?" Then He said this, "Which is easier to say, your sins are forgiven or to say rise up and walk?" Let's ponder that one. I just said both of them a moment ago. I think your sins are forgiven, is longer, it has more syllables than rise and walk. Jesus, you know exactly what He's talking about. There's nothing in the saying, the question is, is there any power behind it? "But so that you may know that there's power behind my statement, your sins are forgiven," He said to the paralyzed man, "Rise and walk." Now, that's awesome. By the way, that's a great passage to memorize in order to share the gospel because it's an incredible miracle that Jesus did, but it leads right to the forgiveness of sins. Jesus when He says, "Your sins are forgiven," friends, they're forgiven, they are forgiven, and He has that kind of power. This is the same kind of thing though. Do these arrogant people have any power behind their boasts? Is there any power behind what they say? Because the Kingdom of God is not a matter of talk, but of power. Now the threat here I think is first of all negative because he talks about a rod, "What do you prefer? Shall I come with a rod or with a gentle spirit?" So there's a sense of discipline here, godly fathers discipline their children, and so he's going to deal with them. Those are that are not false teachers and servants of Satan, those are the just deceived and are anti-Paul, but they've been captured by that mentality. He wants to deal with them either way. And so there's an implied threat here. Now you folks remember the story in Acts Chapter 5 of Ananias and Sapphira? You know what happened. That was the Apostle Peter, not Paul but there was power, when He dealt with Ananias who lied over the money and then later he dealt with Sapphira who lied over the money, both of them dropped dead, dropped dead. So that's the sense of a rod. That's the sense of discipline. But I don't even think that's the power that Paul has in mind here. Back in 1 Corinthians 2, he said, "My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit's power." The power was power to build them up, power to change their lives. Power such as in 1 Corinthian 6, where some are fornicators, adulterous, homosexuals, and he says, "Such were some of you." Transforming power. He's going to say in 2 Corinthians, "A lot of people need letters of recommendation for their ministries. I don't need them. You are our letters of recommendation. Your transformed lives are a display of my apostolic power." I'm not denying he could be referring to signs and wonders and miracles, signs of the apostles. He said, "They were done among you with great perseverance. I did miracles, I did healings." But I don't think that's what he's talking about. He says, "I do have the power to bring a rod such as Ananias and Sapphira, people dropping dead. But even more I have the power through the ministry God has given me to bring life, transformed lives, a church that's flourishing, a church that's bearing disciples for the glory of God. Do they have that kind of power?" That's what he's saying here. Then he says, "Look, what do you want, which do you prefer?" I remember distinctly thinking about this day, as I was driving, not with a pleasant memory. I was a little kid, and I had done something really, really bad with my mom that afternoon. I was locked up in my bedroom and told one statement, maybe you've heard it before, "Wait till your father gets home." Do you ever have a day like that? I will never forget as long as I live. My room had Venetian blinds, my mother drew them so I was in the dark in my room waiting for my father to get home. A car would go by, I'd look through the slats of the Venetian blind. It was a kind of a hard thought. So Paul is saying, "You choose. What would you like my next visit to you to be like? You make the choice, what do you prefer? Would you like me to come with a rod or would you like me to come with a fatherly gentle love? It's your decision." VIII. Applications Alright, well that's a text. Let's talk about some applications. The central issue here is the Gospel of Jesus Christ. And I have already encouraged each of you, if there are any here who do not know the Lord, have not yet come to faith in Christ, all I can do is plead with you, that you cross over from death to life. You don't need to go anywhere, you don't need to do anything. You've heard the Gospel, Jesus has the power based on His death on the cross, the power to forgive your sins, all you have to do is ask Him to do it. Confess your sins and seek forgiveness in Him and He will forgive you. Right even while you sit there call in the name of the Lord and you will be saved. That's the most important thing. But for those of you that are Christians, just have this lasting image of the Apostle Paul, as a healthy, vibrant, productive spiritual father and for the rest of your lives, we are going to be sitting, all of us are going to be sitting at his feet, reading Romans, reading 1 Corinthians, reading Galatians and Ephesians, and drinking in the wisdom that God channeled and poured through him. He can continue to mentor us, continue to train us. He is unique. There's no one like him. But then beyond that, I would just commend all of you mature Christians both men and women to yearn to be a spiritual leader, to yearn to be able to lead someone to Christ and disciple that person. I think this is also a great pattern, for elders, for men, godly men to lead in their families first, and then lead in church, here as well by these same principles that we've laid out today. Close with me in prayer, "Father, we thank You for the time we've had to walk this morning through 1 Corinthians 4, thank You for the truth that the Apostle Paul gave us. It's timeless, it's powerful and I ask, oh Lord, that You would strengthen each one of us in that truth, help us to drink it in, to allow it to transform us. Lord, I pray that there would be power in this church. The power to transform lives, I pray that we would understand what Paul meant when he said the kingdom of God is not a matter of words, not a matter of talk, but of power. Oh Lord that we would see the power of broken sin, sin habits, that slip out of our lives, because we have resisted by the power of the Holy Spirit. And even more to see lives change, from those who did not know or love Jesus to those that are walking with Him. We pray in Jesus' name. Amen.

On April 14, 1994, the top executives of America’s seven largest tobacco companies filed into the hearing room before the House Energy and Commerce Subcommittee on Health and the Environment. Before speaking, the CEOs took an oath to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth – as most witnesses before Congress do. Each man then proceeded to testify that cigarettes and nicotine are not addictive. It was a moment that would change America’s relationship with tobacco. On March 17, 2005, six of the most important Major League Baseball players at the time sat side-by-side before the House Government Reform Committee: Alex Rodriguez, Jose Canseco, Curt Schilling, Rafael Palmeiro, Mark McGwire and Sammy Sosa. With fans, kids, and reporters watching, most of the players refused to admit they were aware of the illegal use of steroids in baseball, or downplayed the breadth of the problem, until the question was posed to Jose Canseco. He told the assembled congressmen that a “large number of players” were using drugs, and that the trainers, managers and even team owners knew about it. It was a moment that would turn around Major League Baseball’s response to rampant drug use. The work of one individual congressman was critical to both of these historic hearings: Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif. In both cases it was Waxman’s vision of bringing together the most important people at a sweet-spot in history that led to major changes in American culture. After a four-decade career in Congress, Waxman announced this year that this term would be his last. As part of DecodeDC’s “Exit Interviews” series, podcast host Andrea Seabrook talks to Waxman about his career – and about mastering the art of the congressional hearing.​
