of all the weird combinations...

pickles and ice cream, peanut butter and ham (that's for you brad), sonny and cher, and now...

professional wrestling and JESUS...just check out the following link...http://www.wrestlingoutreach.com/

now don't get me wrong, for those of you who know me you know i love Jesus. for those who have know me a long time, know i used to love wrestling (maybe i still do a little bit). but wrestling and Jesus, sharing the Gospel after a bodyslam and a suplex? Perhaps Jesus would have put a unruly Pharisee in a figure-four leglock, maybe even dropped kicked a Sadducee who was a little too mouthy. but then how would he communicate the unending Grace and Love of our Father in Heaven?

still, kids are showing up to these events en masse and they are hearing the Good News that there is a God in Heaven that loves them to all ends. if that is what it takes, then i am all for this combination~weird as it is. just read the slogan of world impact wrestling..."let the unthinkable reach the unreachable". in reality isn't that just what God did for us? the unthinkable; sacrificing his Son to reach the unreachable; you and i separated from him by sin. now that is something i would jump off the top rope for.

pile-driving for Jesus...
