The Team That Prays Together, Stays Together

We are starting to get the feeling that this Jacksonville State football team has a bond that won't be broken by the inevitable adversity that comes to every football season. On Sunday, almost the entire coaching staff and team voluntarily went to services together at the Williams Baptist Church in Pleasant Valley.

These are the little things that will add up to this team staying the course when times get tough. Former Gamecock All-American tennis player, and current pastor of the Graystone Church in Loganville, Georgia, Jonathan Howes told me: "If they worship God together as a team, they will be a closer knit football family. If they have strong relationships with one another, then they will trust one another and be a stronger and better football team."

If this was a potluck, can you imagine the amount of banana pudding that was consumed?!
