The story of Abraham's servant seeking a wife for Isaac serves as a beautiful model of how God works behind the scenes, orchestrating events and guiding our paths. We're reminded that even when we don't see visible signs or angelic interventions, God is still moving, allowing 'happenings to happen' that align with His divine purpose. This narrative challenges us to recognize God's subtle guidance in our own lives, encouraging us to trust in His providence and to be open to His leading. As we reflect on our own journeys, we're invited to see the seemingly coincidental moments as potential divine appointments, strengthening our faith and deepening our relationship with God.
The sermon delves into Philippians 2, unveiling the incredible humility of Jesus - God incarnate - who emptied Himself to become human. This act of divine self-emptying isn't just a historical event; it's a powerful model for how we should live. The Christmas story isn't merely about gift-giving or decorations; it's a call to embody Christ's selflessness. We're challenged to pour ourselves out for others, to set aside our advantages for the benefit of those around us. This counter-cultural message reminds us that true greatness lies not in self-exaltation, but in humility and self-sacrifice. As we reflect on the baby in the manger, let's consider how we can empty ourselves to bring God's goodness into our world.
On December 5, 1921, Babe Ruth and two other members of the New York Yankees are suspended for participating in an “illegal” barnstorming tour after the 1921 World Series. Commissioner Landis punishes Ruth, outfielder Bob Meusel, and pitcher “Wild Bill” Piercy for the first six weeks of the 1922 season. This will have little impact as the Yankees will make World Series for the second straight year (although they lost to the NY Giants for the second consecutive time). However, Ruth had the worst year of his career posting a 6.4 WAR, and as an everyday player, his 1.106 OPS was his second worst mark of the 20's. He did bounce back in 1923, winning the MVP. He still managed to hit 35 homers with 96 RBI, so it was a pretty good year. What I marvel at is how much of his Baseball Reference page is bolded. Between 1918 and 1931, he wasn't the league leader in home runs just twice. Once was this 1922 season and the other was 1925, when he appeared in just 98 games. On December 5, 1973 — Ron Santo becomes the first player to invoke the new 10 and 5 rule. The Cubs want to trade Santo to the Angels for two pitchers, but he vetoes the deal. The 10-5 rule, which was agreed upon during the 1972 players strike, gives a player with 10 years' service and 5 consecutive years with a team the right to veto a trade. In this case Santo was from the west coast but was comfortable in Chicago and desired to stay in the area. The Cubs honored the new agreement, and he will eventually be traded to the cross-town White Sox. It did not work out well as Bill Melton was the third baseman, and Santo moved around between second and the DH role. He will hang up the cleats in 1974. Ironically on this day in 2011, Santo will finally get his due and be voted into Baseball's Hall of Fame. A long overdue honor for Santo who passed away the previous year. He receives 15 of 16 votes from members of the “Golden Era” Committee. On December 5, 1978 — After sixteen years with the Cincinnati Reds, Pete Rose signs a four-year, $3.2 million deal with the Philadelphia Phillies. Other teams which pursued “Charlie Hustle” include the Mets, Braves, Pirates and the Royals. The deal temporarily makes Rose the highest-paid athlete in team sports. In 5 years with the Phils (1979-1983), Pete will be a 4X All-Star and help the Phillies to 2 NL Pennants including the Phillies first Championship in 1980. He led the league in hits in 1981 with 140 base knocks, and he finished his Phillies career with a slash line of .291/.365/.361. That was a period that covered his age-38 to age-42 seasons. On December 5, 1990, the San Diego Padres and Toronto Blue Jays collaborate on an old-fashioned blockbuster trade. San Diego deals Roberto Alomar and Joe Carter to Toronto for Fred McGriff and Tony Fernandez. Alomar and Carter will help the Blue Jays to two World Championships. Alomar will become one of baseball's best players during his 6 years, hitting .307 with 206 stolen bases, a .382 OBP and .833 OPS. He will finish in top 10 in the MVP vote 3 times and win 6 Gold Globes. Carter, a premium RBI man, will drive in 100+ runs in 6 of his 7 years in Toronto. Only the strike shortened year stopped him in 1995. He will finish in the top 5 for MVP voting twice and hit one of the most historic homeruns in World Series history off Mitch Williams. Fred McGriff will go on to hit 493 home runs over his career playing for multiple teams. It remains an injustice he is not in Cooperstown.Tony Fernandez will play for 2 seasons in San Diego end up back on Toronto and play on the 1993 World Championship team, playing in all 6 games and driving in 9 runs. On December 5, 1951, “Shoeless” Joe Jackson dies at the age of 62. Jackson, who succumbs to a heart attack, batted .356 over his 13-year career. Jackson had the talent to be the greatest player in history, but he threw it away...

Learn from the father of faith. Genesis 12 marks a turning point in the biblical narrative, introducing us to a man whose unwavering trust in God would reshape the course of history. We're challenged to examine our understanding of faith as the intersection of belief, obedience, and humility. The story of Abraham teaches us that true faith often defies human logic and calculation. His obedience serves as a model for us, encouraging us to step out in faith even when circumstances appear hopeless.
Guests: World Series MVP Freddie Freeman, Los Angeles Dodgers manager Dave Roberts, Mark Simon of Sports Info Solutions The off-season begins as the Los Angeles Dodgers are crowned World Series champions with a five-game victory over the New York Yankees, led by Freddie Freeman's four home runs and World Series-record-tying 12 RBIs! When the champs were in Toronto to play the Blue Jays earlier this season, we spoke to Freeman about his love of playing for Canada to honour his late mother and to Roberts about being a teenager in San Diego when the Padres traded Joe Carter and Roberto Alomar to Toronto for Tony Fernandez and Fred McGriff. You'll hear those conversations, as well as a great chat with Mark Simon about Daulton Varsho winning two Fielding Bible Awards, including Defensive Player of the Year, and much more!
This week's powerful message, explores the ongoing struggle between our spiritual aspirations and our sinful nature. The apostle Paul's honest confession about his own struggles reassures us that this internal conflict is a normal part of the Christian journey. We're encouraged to understand that God declares us free from sin before we've fully learned to live in that freedom. This paradox of being both slaves to sin and set free by Christ challenges us to actively engage in the fight against our sinful nature, knowing that our identity in Christ is secure.
What does the Bible say about our wealth and possessions? This message challenges us to rethink everything we know about what to do with our time, money, and the things we own. The core lesson revolves around Jesus' parable of the rich fool in Luke 12, where a man with an abundant harvest decides to build bigger barns to store his wealth, only to have his life demanded of him that very night. This story serves as a stark reminder that life doesn't consist in the abundance of possessions. Instead, we're called to be 'rich toward God' by using our resources for good deeds and generosity.
In this episode of Sports the NEMO Way we bring the Mount Rushmore of the Toronto Blue Jays to the table for discussion.

Tune in as we explore the profound meaning behind life's challenges and the pursuit of purpose through the lens of the Christmas story. Mary's journey demonstrates that being aligned with God's will does not exempt us from challenges, but rather, equips us with resilience. The sermon encourages communal support and prayer as a means to find strength in unity and joy amidst life's difficulties.

“The purpose of this sermon is for you to grasp the height and length and depth of God's love for you.” “This is a love that surpasses understanding.” In this story Hosea is commanded to marry a prostitute, but when she is intimate with another man, God tells him to love her as the Lord loves the Israelites. In this example God is Hosea, and we are Gomer.

"Does a spaceship make it sci-fi?" Come along with us for an episode that was originally recorded in January of 2021, deep in the throes of the pandemic. So, does this mean The Busy Dads are back? More will be revealed. What it DOES mean is that we had a few episodes "in the can" and there is no way we couldn't just thrust them upon the world. Join Kevin & George as we wonder on whether ET: The Extra-Terrestrial is more of a fairy tale or a science fiction movie. We take a “fly on the wall” approach to our listeners. As such, some of what we discuss falls into the realm of SPOILERS. Consider yourself warned.

Have you heard people say, "Christianity is an organized religion."? It's true, but not in the way you might think… In the first six chapters of Acts, you'll see the church grow from 120 to 10,000 disciples! As more people started to follow Jesus, you can see how a complicated set of conditions had to be met within the church. In this lesson, find out more about why biblical structure exists and how it supports the church!
How do you respond when you're under pressure? Do you try to escape the stress by losing yourself in worldly distractions? Or maybe you seek to control the situation and, ultimately, find yourself in worst shape than you started in? The truth is, we do not have the capacity to control or escape life's stressors, so God offers us a better solution: surrender. When Jesus was overwhelmed to the point of death on the eve of his crucifixion, he prayed. Jesus chose to trust in God's plan and surrender to His will, praying, in faith, “Yet not as I will, but as you will.” In times of great stress, we should follow Jesus' perfect example and remember that, though surrender is not easy, the One we are surrendering to is good.
Who Jesus chose to love changed the world. He introduced and amplified love like never before. Jesus showed that the kingdom of God has come to all people, especially those marginalized in society. We come together to support a population of people who Jesus loves, the modern day orphan, by partnering with 4Kids to raise funds for those in need. 4Kids is committed to redefining foster care in our community, one child at a time. As the church, we are reminded that we our God's hands and feet on earth. We should not be idle, but continually strive to fulfill Jesus's vision for the church.
'The Ministry of Jesus' Sermon Series
Is the fear of the unknown keeping you from having a peaceful life?You tell yourself, "If only I knew how things would turn out, then I would feel better." Or maybe you're angry and blame God for the situation you're in.The helplessness you feel in your inability to control everything has left you stuck and frustrated…But, it doesn't have to be that way! Nor does God want you to stay in that mindset.As you ask questions and seek answers, there is one simple truth in God's word that will give you the relief you've been looking for.You don't need answers, but to understand your place before a sovereign God.Break free from anxiety by diving deeper into this truth and embracing the life-changing impact it can have in your life!
This holiday season and forevermore, the Lord offers us the greatest gift of all: peace. Not circumstantial or conditional peace, but perfect peace. It's peace not found in the absence of problems but in the presence of God; peace that assures us God is still good when all else seems to be falling apart. In this world, you will have trouble, but if you draw nearer to God, He will draw nearer to you. When your mind is fixed on Him, you will find peace that will carry you through even the darkest moments of life. This Christmas, the perfect gift will not be found under a tree or packaged in festive wrapping paper but in closeness to our Lord, who sent His one and only son to be the guiding Light that delivers us from the world's darkness. Will you accept this gift of perfect peace that only God can offer?
In each of us, there is an innate need to belong. God created us to be in fellowship with one another, and the Church is His design to fulfill our inherent desire for community. So what does it mean to be a member of the Church? In Christ, we form a masterpiece of community. Much like every part of the human body functions in harmony to bring us life, every member of the Church is meant to function together to support the whole body of Christ. To be a member is to recognize that each of us is necessary to the survival of the rest of us. Our individual roles and gifts, no matter how they vary or differ, are all vital in their own way. You are irreplaceable. Today, learn how to remain attached to the body of Christ and fulfill the purpose God has called you to.

On December 5, 1951, “Shoeless” Joe Jackson dies at the age of 62. Jackson, who succumbs to a heart attack, batted .356 over his 13-year career. Jackson had the talent to be the greatest player in history, but he threw it away when he accepted $5,000 to throw the 1919 World Series. As part of the most infamous scandal in sports history, Jackson was banished from baseball following the 1920 season, along with his seven co-conspirators. The controversy over that decision has kept Jackson's name alive long after his death.

I really go off on Whit Merrifield in this episode. I think he's a phony and I'm still not convinced he is "good to go" when it comes to his vax status. Besides, he already said that he might change his status if he played for a playoff contender. Might. Also, he's wearing jersey number 1, and that should be retired by the Jays after the death of Tony Fernandez two years ago. Oh, should the Jays invite Robbie Alomar to their 30th anniversary celebration of their World Series victory? Mike says "no". I disagree. Aaron Rodgers of the Packers admitted that he took an illegal drug that made him hallucinate. Should the NFL fine or suspend him? Brittney Griner was sentenced to 9 years in a Russian prison, and now the US has to try to make an exchange for her, likely having to free a murderer in order to gain Griner's freedom. Tons of great sports talk with me and Toronto Mike. Enjoy!
Our good friend Tony Fernandez previews his upcoming audio seminar to be presented at DJX 22 in Atlantic City on Wednesday August 10.
Episode 257 is the ESO EMS Index with Brent Myers, Remle Crowe, and Tony Fernandez. We take an inside look at the Index and answer a few questions about the process and what is EMS data? To have the three guests on the podcast for this discussion and to provide their expertise as well as to take a peek into the future of EMS data was an honor. It also gave me a chance to catch up with Brent and Remle as they continue to return to the podcast as regulars.
On this episode, Toronto Mike and I talk about the death of Guy Lafleur, and I offer up a story of when I covered the Canadiens. We talk Raptors basketball as they are on the brink of elimination against Philly. We get into the Maple Leafs and BlueJays, and at about 25:00 we are joined by former Bluejays coach and major league manager John McLaren, who helped develop such players as Lloyd Moseby and Tony Fernandez when they were in the low minor leagues. John also tells some fabulous stories about Dave Stieb, Damaso Garcia and other Bluejay players from his time with the organization. A must-listen for baseball fans.

Today on the podcast, I talk with Vance Ferrigno. Vance is an Exercise Physiologist who works extensively on sports performance, general strength and conditioning and corrective exercise. Vance is passionate about movement and the importance of movement for the body for good health. Vance's background has included working with junior athletes at the local level, high school, and collegiate level to the professional level. Two notable names on his client list are Gold Glove shortstop Tony Fernandez and PGA Tour winner Bernhard Langer. He has co-authored a book entitled Training for Speed, Agility and Quickness. It has sold 200,000+ copies world-wide.
Tony Fernandez leads a church in Broward County, Florida. While talking with his wife one day, they felt like they needed more friends their age. That conversation ignited an explosion of growth of millenials in their church. They grew from 40 to over 200 millenials in about five years. Find out how they did it on this episode of the Rob Skinner Podcast.
Learn some valuable life lessons from one of the Southeast's most successful Chick-fil-A operators. Tony is the operator at the Roxboro Road store in Durham, NC.
We get into the passing of Tony Fernandez and why he should be remembered for his bat and not his glove in Cleveland. We dig into Mike Clevinger's knee and what this means for the Indians. We talk about a coaching addition to the pro team, and a roster subtraction. Then we talk about how much variance there is for the Indians this year, and how they are not a team that can absorb losses to their roster due to the lack of depth all over.
