At first, It was my team and I just sitting in our little locker room. We were banging on the lockers as hard our hands could handle. Then the music started playing. “BOOM! HERE COMES THE BOOM, I DON’T REALLY WANT IT NOW.” Then, we sprinted out of the locker rooms at full speed. The team was so intimidated by our appearance. We were screaming and yelling chants to get our team and the crowd fired up. Then, it was kickoff time. My buddy Shawn got the ball on kickoff and ran it back to the 50…

schedule for the duration of my time with Masonic. My nervousness at this time has subsided since Ms. Renee was so friendly and warm.

They establish boundaries and limits to maintain order in a given system as an example the “Dead Ball”…

Thought about all the great times I’d had over the season. And that’s when I realized that this was just a taste of what was to come. With high school coming to an end, football wouldn’t be the only thing I’d never get to do again. I realized that we were all growing up. In a few months, everyone was going to head their separate ways. Some guys would go off and play college ball, and some would go mooch off their…

understanding of not only the biblical context but also of the cultural context, we leave our self 's open to misunderstanding and error. The context for Matthew chapter 24 is obviously the entire book leading up to, including, and going through to the end of the Gospel itself.
